Probably one of the best Mosaics ever.

What an interesting new take on the status quo at the start of TFTM. It's something that should have been so obvious and explains so much when you think about it.

This is really well done, I like it a lot! It's simple and gets the point across quickly too, thats a real skill in such a limited short format that these Mosaics seem to be.

Nice work!

Love it. Kinda makes me wish that they would make more, kinda make the movie in their own image so to say.

Definitely one of my favorites. The art is super, the story works well, and what can I say? A G1 movie 'prequel'? I love it!

HK, yay!

This demonstrates why Optimus Prime is the Supreme Commander of the Autobots. Sky Lynx for the win!

Great story on this mosaic. It has all the elements of a good mosaic.

1. Good art - like the Skylynx panel especially.

2. Good story that works well being suplimentary to existing canon story.

3. Not one of those "soliloquy" mosaics where it's basically just one character thinking to himself.

Awesome mosaic one of the best. Primes forgetting something though, the cons have space bridge technology. They can leave cybertron & get to earth with relatively no problems.

Superb work!

Comment by Swiftpaw Oct 12, 2009
Maybe the Autobots destroyed the Cybertron terminal before this as part of the plan?
They never -use- it post-movie, so.....

Comment by Mechastrike Oct 12, 2009
