TRANSFORMERS MOSAIC: "Trapped"

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.


This piece is called "Trapped", by Kris Carter (aka Drivaaar).

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

I second that motion! He only killed the human to put the human out of his misery.

And I third it! The Mosaics seem to make TC look kind of like Armada Starscream and Dinobot in that he could defcet.

This is probably the first Mosaic story that I actually shed a tear for... Moving.

If they keep up this rate, they can create a Spotlight: Thundercracker just by bundling all the Mosaics about him. ;) (Not that I'm complaning, mind you... it's nice to see the Seekers get some characterization love.)

Awesome. G1 Thundercracker was my first seeker and my favorite, due to his bio. This Mosaic compliments his personality very nicely. Kris Carter - FTW!

This ties with Hound's Mosaic for the best character moment I've seen so far. Thundercracker isn't portrayed as cruel, evil, or malicious by nature, yet his fear has led him to a place where murder is the only manner of compassion he has left. Top stuff.

Comment by Blozor Oct 28, 2007
Only minor gripe was that it would make more sense for Thundercracker to say "The human is critically injured..." I don't think the Decepticons care enough to differentiate human genders. It could be that Thundercracker's compassion compells him to know the difference, but it would look odd to any of his comrades for him to be that involved.

Overall good story, though.

That was a much better peak at ThunderCracker's "softer" side than the last attempt!

Wow. Now THIS is what Mosaic is all about. This is a very powerful piece.

This was a very good piece. Well written and up there with the current professional TF art.

This shows a goodness in these Decepticons. Autobots and Decepticons hate each other so much, they think they are ALL bad. I think that Dropkick would probably be the same.

p.s. That Autobot looks like a combination of Ratchet and Jazz...
