Transformers Mosaic: "Duty of Life."

Postby Richter » Thu May 19, 2011 1:54 am

The Universe of the Transformers is vast, and populated by many characters. Their universe is a large tapestry, made up of the stories and points of view of countless experiences that serve the larger whole.

These are some of those stories. This is:

It seems like a 'Con problem... why do they need to get an Autobot medic to find out what the problem is? Was First Aid a hostage? This all seems to have a weird motivation, even if the resulting moral dilemma does fit First Aid's character.

The artwork is great though!

Since when do Decepticons actually have medics, aside from Kiss Players Glit? ;)

I feel sorry for First Aid, really. Moral codes are a fickle thing.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

That is fantastic. I want Rui on IDW's payroll...now! :)

The story is also well done. The moral dilemma is quite compelling.

In my defense, as soon as I read this I went on to TFWiki and the "GO!" button led directly to the JaAm article. The coincidence was awesome.
