>PART 4 - MEGATRON ORIGIN
Sunstreaker and Hunter have been captured. The Decepticon attempt to foment war in Eastern Europe was thwarted. Optimus Prime discovered the unpleasant legacy of his name. Ramjet attempted a coup and was killed for it. But how did all of this come to happen in the first place? To learn that, we have to go back to the very start, to pre-war Cybertron.

(I know I said I'd be doing GI Joe now, but on review I've decided to finish the -ations before moving on to GI Joe Season 1.)
Now, word of warning: Megatron Origin is really not very good. Alex Milne and Josh Perez went on to become an excellent artist and a great colorist, but their work here is shoddy at best.
It's been theorised that being made from an unused Dreamwave concept means that this series was cursed by the ghost of Pat Lee.
Because GoBots sucked, you get it? Geddit?
Nice hairdo, Megs.
No, that's not Orion Pax. Or Elita One, for that matter. The magic of retcons!

Was that helmet being taken off and weird...Panel folding shit under it a reference to something? He's never done that since that I remember, and I honestly can't recall a TF series where he's done this before.
This will all be ignored for a very long time, but at least when James Roberts comes onto the scene he'll retcon things to fit a bit better.
More spotlights. First off, Blaster.
Next up, "Furman goes full /r9k/".
Ha ha! Time for dream sequences!

>trying to ignore that female TF's have always existed
>all because one limey faggot can't handle the idea of guuuurl robbots and literally had an autistic, childish fit that the editor didn't reject
Yeah, no, this shit is bad, and it's been such a black mark on the entire IDW series they've done nothing but try and retcon every single fucking bit of it since it happened. It's worse than the LLS2 finale, because while that was shitting the bed, at least it shit the bed in a way that didn't taint the entire continuity and require tons of retconning to unfuck.

You sound like a tumblrtard
Yeah females existed but it dosent make sense, saying "they just do" is fucking retarded
The g1 cartoon also says that robots can fall inlove with humans and that unicron was made by a midget
Why do alien robots have gender?
Its retarded.
>>93272765
Why do female robots make less sense than male robots?
>>93272397
While I agree "this robot had a forced sex change and is now perpetually triggered by bots assuming its gender" is kind of retarded, I feel like it's hardly the worst thing this series has done. I only recently started reading IDW and I've had more "what the fuck" moments with Hunter's and Sunstreaker's eventual fates, All Hail Megatron, the excellent adventures of Spike Witwicky, the edgiest man alive, Megatron's unbeatable streak in his new body and the Gay Robots in Space soap opera.

Okay, they are not Orion Pax nor Elita One, but is that Alpha Trion near them?
