Well, I guess Furman and Yee never got that memo. (RE: Fractyl.)

I for one feel, that on the whole, we've been getting a spectacular product.
If there is a problem, it's that the sideline TF comics (Beast Wars, Evolutions) aren't getting the TLC that the Spotlights and Ongoing series are getting, which, realistically, makes sense.
So basically, what you're saying is that, from a certain point of view, you feel that you're getting a spectacular product, yet in the same breath, claiming that they're not getting enough attention compared to the G1 title and that it could be better than it is.
You can't really have it both ways, dude. In that context, either BW is good or it isn't.

Considering Furman himself wrote it, did you really expect any different?

If it's the former... it's just bad comedy...i_amtrunks wrote:I'm not sure whether it is Yee or Furman who write the worse bio's, it seems like both of them decided what previously existed, and what was not shown in the Canadian Beast Wars series, can more or less be forgotten about. Is that them being precocious, or do they really believe they are doing the "better" thing by re-writing everyone?

It was a more enjoyable read, the art was better, and the ration of space for character to relevance in the story was improved.

That's what my wife said. Now I'm kind of curious to see a digibash of it as DinoPrime...
