Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.
I'm actually on board with you on this one. I try to look past the hype, they want to sell these books after all, but it's hard to not buy into it. I've actually had this feeling about RiD since the end of the second arc, when there's a legit twist and interesting stuff happening then, oh, Megatron came back and "It was me all along!" came into play. Dark Cybertron did pretty well with it, the problem was more the road to getting there being "eh". But then after that, it's kinda been one long build up to more long build up to... what, exactly?budmaloney wrote:When a sort of closure finally comes, it passes by so fast and so nonchalantly that it didn't feel worth it.
"All this for...this? That's the "big" move he made?"
questions like this keep popping up
It's definitely components of fatigue. This issue just felt bland to me. Lots of you are saying it's great etc. I want to resonate with that. Just the constant teasing and "to be continued" and repetitive mystery has become exhausting.

Boring! What it means to be Prime is something Rodimus would ponder while demolishing Decepticons, not Optimus. While I admit, protecting the Earth against the will of it's inhabitants is something Optimus would do, as shown in Megatron's Master plan pt.2, when Optimus decides to turn the shuttle back around and go back to Earth after being exiled from it, self doubt however, is a very small part of his character.
No one at IDW gets Transformers. Every hack working there tries to rip off the worst elements of G1 season 3 and expand upon it in their dull overpriced comics! I swear if I had to go to a comic shop to pick up this trash I wouldn't waste the gas. The ease of one touch ordering is the only reason why I kept buying these monthly bad fanfics wherein almost all of the Decepticons are either dead or defected and the Autobots are left to fight amongst themselves.
Can someone at IDW please bring back McDonough from Dreamwave to write AUTHENTIC Transformers stories in his own continuity for fans of the original Transformers series? Reading IDWs digital doo doo is like watching a car go over a cliff, explode, and then keep exploding into smaller and smaller pieces. The entire IDW staff should be embarrased of their "work".

While I I agree that some elements of THE optimus prime that I love and miss is lacking in recent comics, and while I do enjoy the Dreamwave transformers comics (despite personal issues and problems that some people have with its owners-mind you. It's like saying all Dreamwave artists are all bad, i.e., Don Figueroa is phenomenal), I wouldn't go so far as saying everything IDW is bad. Me not liking the direction the Recent books, doesn't make everything IDW does is bad. I love Sciola's transformers vs gi Joe. I just hope Optimus goes back to being his heroic godly self againLeave the doubts and and the indecision to new leaders, like Bumblebee, or b rated charactes to be explored. And stop it with the Megatron being an autobot. "Megaton does not yield...he conquers!"

If IDW started out with Armada or Animated I probably wouldn't know who they were right now. But no, they started out with heavily influenced G1 style books because they didn't want to take a chance on not making money. So this G1 fan bought IDWs stuff that was catered to fans of G1, and then they changed it. IDW stopped the war so the Transformers could sit around and drink curdled Energon and caress each others skid plates and fight Gundams. Any other publisher would have rebooted this crap years ago, but not IDW. Why? Because people like me kept buying. Well now i'm out altogether.Deadput wrote:President-prime wrote:Sorry 1984.

It's Forever1984 He likes nothing outside of the first two years of transformers and Dreamwave of all things.
Nothing anyone says is going to get to him.

I think you guys should just stop it with the misdirection and talk about what you really don't like. I think the writers and artists, fans included, would prefer if discussion is on the actual content of the work, then going back and forth about dreamwave and idw. Who cares. I need more badass megaton and epic battles.

I apologize if I cluttered up the thread myself I just got upset over him insulting the writers for arguably dumb reasons.
