Yup. The Aerialbots made Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker seem weak, and the Stunticons made Autobots like Ironhide seem useless. The Aerialbots and Stunticons made the war about them in much the same way Windblade is making post war life about her! People are asking about a Windblade ongoing... what about a Sunstreaker ongoing? Or better yet, Jazz? Both are better characters.guarayakha wrote:1984forever wrote:I wish I could speak to the Transformer characters themselves.

Because the Aerialbots and the Stunticons clearly ruined the war. Gotcha.

The Windblade book had Transformers in it, but lacks the magic of the '84-'85 Marvel run and the Dreamwave ongoing. It's not even good compared to IDWs low standards! It was a BORING read, and the illustrations were ripped straight out of a Chinese food menu.

For months we've basically had news of this mini-series shoved in our faces. It's going to be awesome, Windblade is going to be a great character etc etc.
I failed to see it.
What I saw was High School Drama.
You have the young teenage girl lead, unsure of her place in the big bad world. Then you have the older sister who has clearly been burned and has become cynical.
And then you have the jock, the one that clearly has a "crush" on the lead but being the jock he can't show it so he bullies her.
That was my interpretation. Don't bother telling me how wrong I am. You won't be changing MY opinion.

Whoa. I'm a little surprised that you know so much about high school dramas.

It isn't. It treats Windblade and Chromia just as any other character. They just happen to identify (by the author and more or less themselves, in fiction) as cisgender/AFAB women - as Scott said a while back on her own blog.
