What continuity is this?

Judging by the style of art, I'd say it takes after the Movie.

It looks like a movie style adaptation of Grimlock and Galvatron.

Looks Movie-verse to me, but still, I like it.

How is it an accomplishment to be fluent in your own Native Language? And why use it to try to explain Grimlock's stunted speech patterns? Oh and why does Galvatron talk like a drunken Shakespearean character and where the hell is his fusion cannon?

Literally nothing happens in this story either. Grimlock's pinned down, he scans a fossil for an alt mode while listening to Galvatron's ramblings, reformats and transforms as he gets up. That's it. The story is terrible. The art is pretty good for movie style, but it's obvious the base designs were lifted right from IDW's designs for the G1 series. This is merely mediocre at best.

I have no goddamn idea what's going on in this one. Or where/when it's set. Maybe I'm being harsh, or I'm ignorant of a comic that will make it all make sense, but this strikes me as bad story telling.

Okay, glad it's not me.

I was trying to be nice when I said it was mediocre. I just read it again. And I was far too charitable.

The only questions I have are; does Grimlock know what an ass is, and how does he know his is bad?

Dear god, the more you analyse this one, the worse it gets. To be honest, the whole thing seems like it was conceived simply to culminate in Grimlock's final line.

By the way, I'd just like to do a pre-emptive strike on anyone who's thinking of saying something like "You don't have to be so mean, the guy's put a lot of work into this and you couldn't do any better." In the words of Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw:

But the cruellest thing you can do to an artist is tell them their work is flawless when it isn't. It gives them no incentive to improve or try new things, which a creative person must always strive to do.
