Es muy, muy interesante...

Woah! Convoy got brutal! Though he didn't actually kill Megatron himself, just one of his Auto-Avatars.

I'm curious as to who that female is.

Though, I wish they would give some explanation as to why one of Optimus's selves is acting like this. He's not evil (*cough*cough*Nemesis Prime-wannabe*cough*cough*), he's supposed to be just powerful, as his colors reflect his Black body power-up.

Also, is this manga flipped? Cuz it seems to read left-to-right instead of the correct right-to-left format.

Optimus Prime after watching ROFT.
This manga is the most awesome thing I've seen in this day.

This comic has jaAm written all over it.

...Forget the Classics 2.0 redeco, I'm so making this badass my first alternity figure. Art looks like it's been done by the chap that did the Mircon Legends Linkage (aka Armada) minicomics.

That's not really Convoy as it is one of his unique incarnations - a clone of a dead Convoy created by Unicron, then tortured over thousands of years into his minion. Also, his name is Nemesis Prime! Last time he was seen, RiD Ultra Magnus was punching his face in. Now, he's apparently been redeemed and fighting back on the side of good - a long bout of torture will make anyone into a ruthless fighter. Read about him here:

Although the sparks of all Convoys that join the alternity are fused into one massive collective intelligence, they still get to keep their individual consciousness, act on their own will and fuse into an auto-avatars (physical bodies). Hence, Super Black Convoy being himself, a total badass.

Seems to be.

If you had only posted this sooner. It was just yesterday when I learned all that you just now said. So I basically learned the answer to my question before anyone could give it to me.

Though, I am a little disappointed that this isn't Convoy Black. He's cool. Nemy's been done again and again. Convoy Black is something a little more unique and interesting. *sigh* Well, at least they made him an Autobtot.

As for it being flipped, turns out it wasn't. The original untranslated version is read in the same way as this one.

Well, erm, oops. Sorry about the late reply, I only login every other day to post comments on articles I find interesting, and posting here sorta got delayed.

Hmm, well, I've always wanted to see what happened to Nemesis Prime after the Universe events. "Bad guy turned good" formula seems to be working so far for him.

Oh, I see. Maybe it was flipped prior to being translated?
