Cultural Exchange and the Happiest Robot Ever

[terrykun]

So shall we review?

Combaticons (what's left of them) are working for/with North Korea.

The US President has declared any nation cooperating with Cybertronians will be labeled a terrorist faction.

A covert group of the US military, led by Commander Spike Witwicky, has been working with the Autobots to capture or disable any remaining Decepticons. Well, President or not, they're not just gonna sit around...


As we begin, our heroes have attempted to infiltrate North Korea via cargo ship, but after their bogus shipping manifesto is called out as such, a dock worker just gets punched out and chucked into the water.

Don't worry, he had a life-jacket on. He'll wake up in an hour or two, the soldier swears.




How... how do you look that excited without a mouth?

Oh, and here's a little somethin' somethin' for the ladies (and some gents).

Maybe its my obsession with girl genius but death rays make me squee now.

Call me cynical but I doubt the Dear Leader would invite immortal alien robots who've been fighting a war for the last 5 million years into his country. He'd probably fear they'd depose him and make his giant army actually a force to be reckoned with.

Wheeljack will be HAPPY to upgrade your guns. :-D

You gotta love a giant robot who lives in a giant robot factory. I know I do.

Heh, so Prime's trailer makes it's appearance. It's like a ninja!

"I could sew a whole pair of pants in the time it takes to do these up."

Well, don't feel pressured to do them up on my account...

This is what I get for skimming over what the comic actually was. I thought there were actual Koreans in the vehicles.

And then TRANSFORMERS.

I think the fact that Guidi posed him and composed the frame so that the seams and edges of his faceplate ended up shaped into 'ginormous grin' shape...

(Also that he's apparently trembling with joy.)

On another note, the extra panel...aside from being fairly nice to look at, puts my mind to the rather amusing...variety in how the various artists draw Spike... Though, at least Figueroa, Guidi, and Daes/Santalucia make him look more or less like the same character, I guess...I was halfway through issue 8 of the current series before I realized that it was about Spike.

The G1 Cartoon had the best human/Autobot relationship. It's time to do a story based on that.

"how do you look that excited without a mouth?"

hand language, slightly concave lower eyelids, and a face mask that looks exactly like a smile.
