My Little Pony #19 Transformers Crossover Convention Exclusive Cover Revealed

No.

Starscream's smiling nervously because he knows that if he doesn't behave he's gonna get murdered again.

Then don't buy it.

This obviously isn't aimed at you guys, so why are ya'll bothering to even click on this news page, look at it, and post on it, if it doesn't pertain to you?

Yeah, in addition to the creepy flatness, those "details" on Screamers grey parts conjure up ugly memories of Pat Lee, and after Dreamwave was destroyed just when its TF continuity was actually getting interesting, I'd sooner buy a TF/Ponies ongoing monthly than see any shades of his influence again.

So why do they get upset that transformers fans hate this ? Do transformer fans raid MLP conventions and shove TFs down their throat like they do to us ? Oh wait...there are no MLP conventions. I wonder why...

Have you tried this new fancy site? I think it's called Gugul, or something.

As for everyone else:

Criticism of the contructive kind, positive or negative, is fine (see Shelfspace and Bumblevivisector, for example, above). Comments that borderline abusive language or behaviour are not. Thank you.

Yeah, yeah, blah blah blah.
Now kindly shut up and leave. Your thing is getting old.

You know, you sound exactly like hardcore geewunners who only post in Movie Bayformers threads just to hate and complain, right?

Nope, just tired of this fad.
I don't hate it, I'm merely annoyed by it.

This "fad" is now it's own sub-culture that's been going on for FOUR YEARS now. It's still going strong and is going even stronger.

The Harlem Shake, Gamnam Style, This is SPARTA! were all fads. They came, and went. The 4th MLP gen that created bronies is now as big as Trekkies and Star-Wars sub-cultures and even bigger than Transformers. Did you know that just because of MLP, Hasbro keep itself in the black? "Girls" toys have been outselling "boys" toys for a while now.

Also, you can`'t just ignore all the fan content. Arts, fanfics, customs, professional animations and musics. Even home made plushies that sell for hundreds or even THOUSANDS of dollars on Ebay!
Also, all those huge conventions where official artists and voice actors come to, the SDCC collectors items and so on.

Sure, it was a "fad" in the first few months.
It's been years now.
MLP FiM is now a solid community. A subculture that have a bright and strong future ahead.

I will not try to "convert" you. But at least, acknowledge that MLP FIM is not an obscure weird thing anymore.

Nonsense. Everyone knows Hitler is a Brony. It's all over YouTube.

People are fine with him being a Brony cuz it makes him go bananas and look silly (since he's a psycho Brony that no one, not even sane Bronies, takes seriously). It's everything else Hitler did that people don't like about him.

Nah, that's why he's smiling so nervously. He's scared stiff to do anything bad because she's right there on his shoulder, watching him.

Technically that cover's more of a reference to the 1987 Justice League #1 issue cover (which MTMTE #1's cover also referenced):

Hell yeah, that scene!
Also, better quality embeded below:

They also reference Transformers every now and then..

And Justice League, too, it seems. Of course, who HASN'T done a riff on that cover by now..?
