I can't be the only one getting a "9/11" vibe out of this, am I?

I take it this takes place during Megatron's Origin? I haven't read that yet, so I am kinda in the dark on this one, and there isn't a lot here to help "fill in the gaps" so to speak.

So I guess what I'm saying is I'm not really digging this piece, possibly cause it's meant to impact someone who actually read/saw Megatron kill Sentinal Prime, maybe cause I don't think there's enough to fill an entire page(though it would work great as an opener to a full-length comic). I do think it's an interesting idea. I may have liked it better if done in a different point of view, like showing a few other of Cybertron's population reacting to the news, and having a sort of build-up to the main shot. I hope I wasn't too negative, cause it is interesting to see someone take this approach to how a Mosaic is told :PEACE:

Very interesting idea. Every generation has its big question. FOr the "Greatests" it's "Where were you when you found out about Pearl Harbor?" The Baby Boomers: "Where were you when you heard about JFK?" Gen X'ers remember when the Berlin Wall came down. For the Digital Generation, it will always be "Where were you when the planes hit the Twin Towers?". This puts this type of generation-defining idea into Cybertronian ideals. Cool.

Has a strong 9/11 feel to it.

This one has a pretty powerfull message to it. I like it. Cool to see War Within megs in another story.

With the buildings and how it's drawn it definitely has a 9/11 vibe to it, though the subject itself could relate to other past tragic events.

As for me I was at home watching TV when Megatron killed Sentinel Prime. *nods*

by **Pyrostrata** » Sat Jan 19, 2008 1:03 am

It sorta looks like Armada Megatron to me....not sure though

I know that its not correct, but my first impression of the shadow figure was of either Bruticus or Onslaught by himself.

The guy next to the flag resembles Armada Megatron, with the cannon on his ass and the two antlers.

"9/11 Vibe" or not, this mosaic is definately lacking. I'm sorry, but giving applause to every piece that comes out is fine and dandy, as long as the piece warrants it. This look like it took 20 minutes to do with MS Paint.
