Where is that nostalgia critic meme about boomer from the first independence day movie when you need it.

Though funny thing is, countless people will die and we'll be expected to feel relieved that one dog survived :-P

If they kill Buster, I shall refuse to read the remaining IDW books following that issue.

Also, Milne's Unicron covers are fan-frikkin-tastic!!!

What if they kill him last panel, and then end with a Furmanism?

Then I'll refuse to buy the TPB and any IDW book ever again once the reboot starts

That's harsh, but as someone who hates animal violence in real life and in cartoons (not tom and jerry style violence but Elfen Lied style violence...don't ask) I can sympathise. It's weird, kill humans and it barely does anything (unless a fan favourite character) but kill an animal and that's it. I think more people would kick off over buster dying on panel, then did over the pointless death of Kup

I mean, I was kidding about the not buying again. But I wholly agree on animal violence.

I have a really hard time with movies that kill animals. Humans, eh. robots, eh. Dogs or cats: I cannot watch them again, if ever once I hear about it.

That said, I will be super depressed if they would kill Buster. Sadder than any other death in the book

iTunes Preview for IDW Transformers: Unicron #3

Postby Va'al » Thu Aug 02, 2018 2:12 am

Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
We have three more previews of IDW Publishing Transformers comics, coming from both the publisher themselves and regular outlet iTunes for the one included below to begin with - a three page preview for the third issue of the Unicron mini-series, as we reach the mid-way point of this final event in the narrative universe.

Check out the three mirrored pages below, and be ready for a longer preview and full issue soon.

Unicron #3

Unicron approaches Cybertron, so Windblade enacts a desperate plan—one neither Optimus Prime nor Starscream agree with! Has Windblade outmaneuvered Shockwave's machinations—or played right into his deadly hand?

Full Preview for IDW Transformers: Unicron #3

Postby Va'al » Sat Aug 04, 2018 4:41 am

Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
Fellow Seibertronian Sunstar has pointed us towards the first of the full previews that will appear between now and Wednesday, for the IDW Publishing Transformers comics, on Previews World. Specifically, we're looking at the big bad itself, the third chapter of the Unicron mini-series - mirrored in full below for your own convenience - and starting to shed some light on the origin of the Uncreator itself.

Take a look, and start speculating on the story before the full book release next week!

Transformers: Unicron #3 (of 6)
(W) John Barber (A/CA) Alex Milne

Unicron approaches Cybertron, so Windblade enacts a desperate plan-one neither Optimus Prime nor Starscream agree with! Has Windblade outmaneuvered Shockwave's machinations-or played right into his deadly hand?

On the last page, is that Starscream calling Bumblebee "old friend" or Optimus?

I would guess Optimus, as he's called Bee old friend before. But the bubbles there are a bit vague

I am almost entirely certain that is Starscream speaking to Bumblebee. Optimus is entirely to one side as the conversation starts and continues.

Also, this is the first time we've seen Starscream see Bumblebee return on the page, whereas OP has been talking to him all of last couple of issues!

If this ends up truly the case, cause it is kinda confusing in that panel, it says even more for Starscream. He's become a pretty great character in recent years, in an almost Armada Starscream way.

Starscream has been really well developed since the Death of Optimus Prime one shot. Even more so after Dark Cybertron.
