Him and many other comic writers for TF have spun some seriously awesome stories.........the comics to me are what keeps TF fresh in my life......

the bay movies get worse and worse the more u read the comics..
im always wondering, why couldnt they do this in the movies or that etc.........

I hope one day Bay gets crushed by a garbage truck so he can never do another movie again. Hire a good director, and maybe get some of the comic guys on as writers........

then they will make 2 billion instead of 1(which i still cant believe those piles of feces made that much) and fans alike will be please......

alas a boy can dream...........

till that dream comes true, ill keep reading R.I.D AND M.T.M.T.E

Con's are tons of fun. This is the first TFCon Chicago, so nobody quite knows what it will be like yet. But the fact that there is a convention in the midwest, a lot of people are anticipating on going since Botcon hasn't been in this neck of the woods in several years.

Besides the guests, the dealer room should be huge as most of the major TF dealers such as TFSource and BBTS are located in Minnesota and Wisconsin respectively, so they should both be in attendance.

Lastly, geeking out and meeting other Seibertronians and having a big party every night in Chi-town.
