Actually idea:
last issue, Rewind said that on cybertron, Amica endura is only when you cannot get a conjux endura, so it means you accept you will never get that "true love." maybe the implication is that Skids wanted a conjux, but now that Nautica has done the amica, he can no longer get that conjux, hence his displeasure.

The whole dominus thing was infuriating. Specifically, rewind nor chromedome consider that reversing the domestication might be the crew's only way offworld?
That whole moment felt really truncated considering it's gravity.

If the series had been cancelled abruptly, I'd understand this. As it is, with the whole mystery being resolved out of nowhere, I don't understand it.
Also, is Roberts giving Rodimus any redeeming qualities? He just seems to be a 2 dimensional douche bag in MTMTE. Pity.

But in this case, it got to the point where he was addicted to the violence, to the killing, he did it because it was the only answer, and it was the only way he could succeed, this is what he pretty much said back in 49. Until eventually, as in back in the Dark Cybertron series, he remembered there were other ways, and he finally, finally, after millions of years and countless deaths, got back on the wagon. The entire galaxy can hate him all it wants, but he's at last at peace with himself and trying to do something worthwhile that doesn't involve murder. And now, the only answer that exists once again is to kill, and It terrifies him to no end. I can see what Roberts was getting at with him Rejecting the Fusion Cannon and opting to stay under the shield. In fact, I'm pretty sure next issue he's going to point out he didn't expect to survive his meeting with Tarn, and it would have been easier if he didn't.
It will be interesting to see how Roberts writes Megatron next issue. Whether Megatron sticks with flight, or goes to fight, it's going to define him.
Also, I'm pretty sure Nightbeat is going to determine something massive underneath the surface of the planet to tip the scales next issue. We know next issue is where it ends, and 55 is the aftermath. So yeah, can't wait. I've enjoyed this arc immensely, I'm just worried about who is, and who isn't, making it out next issue.

I actually kind of like MTMTE rodimus. He isn't a squeaky clean kid who wants to do good for good's sake, at least not entirely. He wants to be a hero for all the wrong reasons. At least he's had a bit of development in refusing the list and apologizing to drift. Though I will agree that his making the same kind of mistakes has been going on since before the war ended when he let swindle ofall people get the best of him.
I really want a scene where he royally screws up and has Megatron of all people sit him down and tell him off. Megatron, I think has been a much better captain than rodimus.

I know what you mean about liking his faults, I once thought the same.
Rung working out that Rodimus was only lamenting the fact it wasn't him who saved the day in the aftermath of the Overlord battle was rather complex.
Prime lambasting him for invoking the crisis of command vote for his own ego, rather than morality. That was fascinating too.
Yet the character is caught in something of a flatline. Which makes sense for a "Turbo revvin young punk" who is in fact 4 million years old, I suppose...
Also, apologies if someone has mentioned this already:
Minimus. Dominus. Spark brothers. One is a minesweeper. The other a feline. Hm. Ok.

When it was just him facing Tarn, he was happy to let Tarn kill him without fighting back. The fact he's alone is an important part - he thought that by sacrificing himself he could save his comrades' lives without having to fight. That satisfies his desire to protect his comrades without forcing him to kill.
However, now Megatron would be alongside his Autobot comrades, a situation which would force him to fight and kill in their defense (which he is terrified of doing). Mentally, he's stuck between a rock and a hard place, and is choking up.

Do Barber and Roberts keep the characters and stories totally separate and independent of each other?

Randomhero will tell you Proteus, but considering Dom is now out of the running, Roller is the most obvious and (except for Proteus, which I really don't see) probably the only option
