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 should be noted that while this project has been recognized by IDW Publishing and Hasbro, none of the works presented have been commissioned or solicited by either company. The stories are not official canon, except where noted.
These stories are the result of Transformers enthusiasts taking the time out of their busy days to contribute to a universe they love.
No one has been paid for the production of these stories.

Wonder who this girl is that's trying to form an alliance with - of all people - Starscream. It makes sense that Screamer would go along with it... Its just... The fact that Starscream is the way he is with Megatron says a lot to me as to whether or not our Jane Doe over here wouldn't get betrayed as well... The idea of "the enemy of our enemy" is a good one, I'm just saying... The cliché of trusting certain mechs as far as you can throw them (especially when widely known to apply to a given character) would ruin whatever alliance Starscream would form with us.


It's a great Mosaic though. Still an alliance doomed to failure, but the concept of it makes it interesting.

The more I think about it, the more this piece perfectly characterizes the good old back-stabbing Starscream :D . I also really like the art in this one, it reminds me of some 90's comics I've read, cool stuff.

Overall, nice Mosaic, and a really neat idea B-) .

Feels like a mix of a Bob Budianski plot and the characterization and style of the cartoon. I like it. Maybe i'm over critical, but some of the Mosaics just don't speak to me. This one though is simple, spot on characterization, and just was a fun little thing. Plus it says all it needs to for me to imagine the whole story. Exactly what i'm looking for in a Mosaic. This one just goes to show that a piece doesn't have to be mindblowing in any particular way to be extremely good. Nice work.

*after Starscream fangirl squealies subside*

Very cool mosaic. If it was true (cannon) though, it really would put that page with Screamer pointing up at the arriving US jets (Devastation 6) in a different light!

Those pics of Megs are just TOO cute! (Warning: Extreamly Dangerous) :D

*... and here come the Megatron fangirl sqealies*

:oops:
