Is the IDW Transformers canon worth reading? Has it really gone bad or is that just /co/ getting upset about le Tumblr boogeyman?

I occasionally watched Beast Wars and Energon as a kid, but mostly I'm interested because:
1) I heard IDW TF is amazing scifi.
2) I love TF vs GI Joe so much I want to get more into those characters.
3) I want to read something that isn't capeshit.

>>83978697
Good god. Even his Autobot icon is mad as hell.

>>83978628
Megatron and Ratchet, best comic chemistry since 1984.

>>83978979

Just fucking read it then, wiseguy.

>>83978979

it's all over the place but when it's good, it's really good.

>>83978995
I'm curious whether the people constantly saying its turned to shit are right or not. I'm not going to pick up a series/two series that are good in the beginning and then go downhill.

>>83978907
Same timezone, anon.
I just haven't slept at all.

>>83979050

Then here's the no bullshit answer- it goes up and down in quality constantly.

Just start reading and if it gets awful skip to the next arc. You'll be fine.

>>83978979
Some issues blow everything else out of the water and make Transformers seem like the most adult, well thought out franchise thatvwas ever created.

Some make you bite your fist in rage how awful the writing is.

Most are ok.

>>83979050
>I'm curious whether the people constantly saying its turned to shit are right or not.
MTMTE starts off incredibly strong but slows down a little past the middle and has just picked itself back up again. RiD starts off incredibly boring and picks up during and after Dark Cybertron; it's currently in a messy place though.

>>83978761
So obviously Megatron isn't dead.
How much do you wanna bet those shots were Deathsaurus or someone similar shooting at Tarn and Overlord?

>>83979168

That or Magnus/Swerve/Rewind shot them.

they didn't appear since the beginning,

>>83979187
It would be fitting considering they shot at Tarn and Overlord "together" as well.

>>83978979
It's definitely worth reading. RID/Transformers is a solid book with a couple of missteps now and then; MTMTE is genuinely fantastic for the first season, and people are mostly disappointed in the second season because we know how good the author CAN be. It still ranges from decent to great.
What else, uh... Windblade vol 1 is pretty good and vol 2 is a shitpile, both of the ___ of the Wreckers series are great, never read Empire of Stone, the "-ations" series, or anything else by Shane McCarthy/Mike Costa... I think that's a decent summary.

look at all those cameos of japanese Transformers
watch them get killed off one by one
first we had hellbat dying like a bitch and now the rest of TF: Victory-decepticons have to bite teh grass

>>83979327
Not that anon but out of curiosity, which series do you think is best to start with? MTMTE or RiD?

Quite enjoyed the comments.
U know, i dont really mind any comments till i get content delivered.

I really have no clue what the IDW TF comics are about or even how to go about reading them, which is a shame when the TMNT stuff is so good and straight forward and I don't even really care about TMNT but love TF

>>83979475
MTMTE will get you hooked. RID is slower and not too fantastic at the start. It's still GOOD but doesn't get GREAT until many issues in.
I'd read them in alternating TPB order - MTMTE volume 1, RID volume 1, MTMTE vol 2, etc.

>>83979553
I mean, they're the closest thing Tarns got to friends and family, he's just ensuring they make it out of there alive. Meanwhile the other dude is dumb enough to follow along with Tarns plan (no questions even asked) and get his men killed.

>>83979729
if he doesn't they'll die anyways

>>83979729
>I mean, they're the closest thing Tarns got to friends and family,
You think he's feeling any regrets about Kaon yet?

>>83978591
But the name of that guy is Rodimus, not Hot Shot. Or is this teasing him?

>>83979454
Deathsaurus hasn't died yet.
Even Nickel felt bad for him.

>>83978651

NO!

>>83979168
Its nickel. Nickel shot them

>>83979838
Absolutely. And knowing the writing I'm sure it will be addressed later.

>>83980456
I really like this theory.

How can you show that stakes are high in a TF IDW story arc without killing some of the good guys? Apparently, you can't.

But that's okay because they're just colorful kiddie meal toys instead of proper characters, right? Plenty more from the gook-slave factory where they came from.

>>83978687
Well, that was a letdown.

>>83978580
It's the power of friendship (and gay robot love) saves the day episode.

I'm not paying for this book anymore since I promised to myself that I'm not going to financially support James Roberts' habit of binge watching shitty sci-fi shows on netflix if this happens again.

Anyway, this issue was pretty okay. Standard as fuck, but that doesn't mean all bad. I guess now it's time to explain the mystery of the hollow planet, which is probably the titan, which is what Agent 113/Minimus ambus was talking about in his last recorded message, which the plot device that's going to save Megatron and the Autobots this arc.

You still have Crosscut. They look similar.

>>83978761
Poor Tarn/Overlord/Deathsaurus.

Megatron wasn't upset they blew up his gun because it "defeated" him. He's upset because now he won't be able to hold back.

Shit. Bye Skids. You were a bro.

But Primus help me, if they kill Ravage...

>>83982089
>>83982297
It always amazes me that in the Marvel run it was almost always up to Ratchet to fuck Megatron's shit up in some way. He did it more often than Prime.

>>83982970
Fucking this. He is the superstar champion of the Pit and we know he is 100% operational. And we can see he got triggered by their question. Now he has to mldestroy them with his bare hands.

>>83983337

They've always had an odd connection in TF, even long after the comic.

>>83978979
>Is the IDW Transformers canon worth reading? Has it really gone bad or is that just /co/ getting upset about le Tumblr boogeyman?

It's literally like any other comic series ever, Anon. Some issues are shit, some are amazing, altogether it's average. You'll walk away with a positive experience on the whole.

>>83982970
>>83983395
He's probably going to use Tarn's Voice to try and kill the other two.

>>83984415

Because Sweve has a piss fetish. Which is funny because some anon in the /toy/ threads posted something to that effect a few times.

Motherfucker must be psychic.

>>83978715

So was the "was it worth it" line a throwback to megs asking tarn? I forget.

Do you even transformer? Ratchet was a head and a spark and he was fine the only way you can get killed off in transformers is the magic losing colors and becoming grey, having your spark broken or getting your head crushed. Speaking of which Overlord is fucking badass. CRUNCH!

That it is.
Milne posted his design on his Twitter a while back.

>>83986215
The message mentions he had located Necrobot's base of operiations.
I don't recall if there was something else hinting towards any secrets the planet may hold, but the Titan sounds plausible given that now we know the planet actually holds something, and the titans are coming in big in the next season.

Plus, the Titan's discovery by Nigtbeat and Rung would be a better way to explain how 90% of ex-Lost Lighters and Megatron survive a direct encounter with 500 cons, the DJD, and Overlord.
Better than outlier sparks supercharged by the power of trauma amplified by power of friendship, I mean.

Torture a Titan's boyfriend in front of them.

>>83986712

You're taking the "Titan" part of titans return too literally I think. The toy line thats driving it isn't focused on MEGAHUEG TF's, it's focused on (name)Masters (Target/Head/Breast/etc) being all brought back as Headmasters, and then THAT being renamed as Titanmasters.

In this case, the "titan" is referring to the Transformers themselves in relation to their new, tiny buddies that turn into their heads.

>>83987122
Like the name relationship between Mini-Cons and "bulks".

Lugnut better become a main character if Deathsaurus does join them.

it'd be GLORIOUS.

>>83987989

That would imply that Roberts know who Lugnut is. He'll be nothing like Lugnut because Roerts only cares about his OCs.

>>83987122
Given that they just found a bunch of fleshlings in the basement of the necrobot, it's possible that the crew in there all gets to become head or targetmasters.

>>83987958
That's so annoying. If Prowl has to be there at the end, then put him at the actual end when the whole story ends. Screw this crossover bullshit.

What kind of number is 57 to end something anyway?
>inb4 it's a prime number BECAUSE IT'S NOT

>>83987958
I'm hoping #55 will be a longer issue seeing as that we have like 500 cliffhangers from this issue, I don't mind the next few focusing on a different cast though, actually I wouldn't mind season 3 being entirely a rotating cast instead of every 20 issues having the focus on someone other than the lost light crew.

>>83988101
If it helps, consider 56-57 an epilogue. Season 2 ends on 55.

Seems they managed to talked out of it without much hassle.

>>83988855

Hasbro forced IDW to use movie style designs in 2009. The moment the comic falters in money making they will take it as reason to make it more like the movie.

This has never happened. Even when we previously had movie comics.

It is up to 10,000 last I checked which is solid for IDW. IDW is not Marvel and not everyone needs to be at 50,000 issues sold to deem their book profitable. I'm beginning to wonder if you really even know how comics work at all.

>>83989051
Why would they cancel their best selling comic just because a new Bayformers movie is coming out? 90% people who like Bayformers don't read comics anyway and care about anything besides the explosions so it would be a fucking retarded way to bring in more people to read comics. Your logic makes literally no sense.

>>83989004
>people keep requesting toys from it

Moving goal posts. You said there was no comic influence at all. You're wrong, the comic do indeed influence the figures.

>>83989556
>The one that fucked everyone over about dragon Megs

What's the issue?

The idea that Hasbro will step in and say "these comics aren't profitable enough, time to reboot them" is FUCKING RETARDED because Hasbro aren't the ones who make a profit from the comics. That would be IDW. When you see the comics mirroring Hasbro's plans it's because the guys at IDW know that synergizing with that shit will make THEM more money.

Back in 2009 when the old ongoing launched it used Bayverse designs because the creative team, particularly Don Figuroa, wanted to do it that way. IDW editorial was okay with it because they hoped it would attract some of the much larger movie audience. When the movie audience wasn't fooled, and when Figuroa became unavailable and the other artists couldn't hack that style, IDW let them draw whatever.

>>83989258

I don't care if it's 100% accurate, I just want a good figure of a character I love.

This is such a step up from the Classics figure.

>>83989590
Everyone wanted it and has for literally 15 years, but not only was it underproduced someone went in early and bought a large amount of the stock.

They had a limit all day Friday of how many you could buy (which was also stated in the rules) insuring everyone had a chance at getting one but then Saturday morning they tossed that limit out the window and sold all their stock to a vendor at like 8am and many regular attendees weren't able to get one. It was first thought it was BBTS but then it later came out it was a toy distributor out of the UK that also has a smal convention.

It probably doesn't function correctly as one because of limited knowledge of sex since they didn't have them until recently. Possibly just a vague vaginalike discoloration instead of actual sex organs there.

It's such a shame, but the gigantic backpacks completely ruin both MP Hotrod toys. If they didn't have those (and the QC issues), then the first toy with the arms from the 2nd one would be perfect.

also they could've made it even more impressive if it had two vehicle modes, one for Hotrod, one for Rodimus (without his convoy, animation be damned). But I know that that's asking way too much. I was so disappointed when it was revealed that the convoy mode on the first MP toys used literally 0 parts of the actual figure.

Might work for TFP, but only for that. He wouldn't be ugly since he seems to be somewhat vain though I guess that's mostly thanks to the writer that should be completely ignored for any canon speculation but he's more about smugness and manipulation than pure look so he wouldn't be a model.

I just don't get why some people decide to draw Starscream as a 70 year old man.

>>83993650
>70 year old man
.....I have not seen this. Anywhere.

>>83993623
Is he a midget too? Seriously what the hell was the designer on when they made this?

>>83991564
Yup going there but just for the Saturday. Just look for a overweight twenty something with a Prowl shirt, that'd be me.

>>83993675
I've seen fanart of a old man Starscream around, you could probably find it on deviantart or tumblr if you look.

No idea.
Everyone's pretender shells are either stubby or swole.
Sometimes monsters.

>>83993808
Not to mention Jazz's is the wrong color.

>>83993808
When I think of giant alien robot dinosaur I don't generally think of middle class working dad with depression.

Post more pretenders anon these are fucking hilarious

inscribed on it.

>Bad ending

I'm just gonna pretend Skids went to a better place. A place to live out at on a farm and getting daily wax jobs from a country girl.

IMO both are acceptable.

>>83993503
The one is literally his Pretender shell and the other is a human with Starscream uniform.
More plausible than actual ones.

>>83994492
Hey, I'm not complaining.

>>83994507
Something being official doesn't make it good and the other one is a generic manga human in a bad cosplay.

>>83994273
>>83994380
>>83994455
I wonder if after finding out that Skids is dead, Brainstorm's like...
>Yes! Now Nautica can be mine... for science! Wait... still gonan die, though. I'm too smart to die!

>>83994703
And most of the ones are just humans in worse cosplay since only keeps the color scheme intact instead of unique features.

>>83994273
Will Brainstorm ever find about Quark?

>>83978979
Were the fuck have you been the past 11 years???

>>83993235
I remember someone suggesting a flapper style? I like the idea because it's outdated yet still attractive.

Would have a curly bob cut, low heels, fringe dress, one of those feather headband things and I imagine a long cigarette holder.

I've always pictured the coneheads as bully Sloth from Goonies, but fuck me, that is perfection.

Since you asked.
Pretenders head sculpts were amazing, but they got nothing on Animorphs
