Agreed with what Burn wrote too. PLEASE let this continue! It was a great story itself but also set up so much fun stuff for the future!

I'm looking forward to getting this in trade, you guys have done a fantastic job of reviewing this series and I thank you. As for the people who created it though... :BOWDOWN: Thank you for showing us that crossovers can be done with Transformers, even ones that don't share anything at first glance (say like another cross over that shall remain nameless). Through TF x GB you've managed to create a compelling story that stands on its own and serves as a greater introduction at the same time. I tip my hat to you gentlemen.

Yeah, that caught me off guard too. Suddenly he looks a bit more Transformers Prime Megs for "reasons"?

That aside, yet another utterly enjoyable issue. And it closed out with the possibility of more in the future. Loved it.

I took it as Megatron was fully realizing what he could do as a ghost. And he was slimed out of Ectotron, so he could have reconstituted in a different form because he was scrambled from the slime

Like I said, you can make up any reason you want. I didn't catch any hint as to why the change of form. I'm hoping there's a pay off somewhere about it down the track when they hopefully follow up the series.

It's definitely ghost-related abilities. I figured context would work on that; everyone's smart enough to sort that out.

Kind of like why I didn't explain the process of transformation for the non-TF fans. (Why do they do that, anyway?) etc. (:

We certainly love you coming here and talking about the book! It really was fantastic, and I don't think I'm alone in wishing for a sequel series, or Ectotron making it into the main ongoing!
