So since they aren't anywhere they are Z list My question is though why do you read MtMtE if your so unhappy with it. Isn't RiD good enough for you?
Anyway, I really enjoyed this issue, wasn't quite the event horizon I was hoping for but I loved it nonetheless. Took me a moment to find the flow of Nautica and Nightbeats conversation, and I found it amusing when Nautica called Ravage a girl, only for Riptide to call him a boy a panel later. Having a girl around must confuse them a bit I'm also calling for a Nautica and Nightbeat !pairing bring on #33!
Sad. Transformers has degenerated to the point where one Transformer mistakenly calls another "she" and that's seen as entertainment. I just don't see the appeal of Nautica and her one tool. If she is so dependent on this Super Monkey Wrench why didn't she have the damn thing integrated into her forearm? I don't know, maybe it's the tiny cockpits that Milne draws onto his Transformers playskool alt-modes that makes me hate this character. Hasbro incorporated Milne's designs into it's toys and ruined Generations Trailbreaker, Hoist and Skids for true fans everywhere. Or maybe it's Nautica's name, ripped off from a clothing company that hasn't been hot since '89? Seaspray could have been substituted for both Riptide and Nautica. This would have minimized the amount of lame boat characters from 2 down to 1 and lessened the stink of fanfic MTMTE always has about it like old fish.
As for Megatron, I remember when Megatron was scary, whether in Marvel Transformers 1-4 or just sitting in BFG mode in the toy store. IDWs Megatron is made of tin-foil. Hopefully it turns out that it's Bombshell's fault that Megs is such a little bitch now.
