Petition to Hasbro for McDonough and Patyk

Post by Yaya » Sun Feb 06, 2005 2:00 am

Here is a new petition designed by Botch of TF box art archive fame. The petition is being sent to Hasbro to urge them to bring former DW TF comic writers James McDonough and Adam Patyk back on the TF comic once the new publisher is announced.

For those of you who loved the work they did at Dreamwave, your vote counts in bringing them back. Let's do our part in helping these guys out and all other former DW employees, like Don and Simon.

We don't need a Furman petition, 'cause any company who picks up the license and DOES NOt hire him is sure to end up like DW very soon. :D

But I don't wanna see Mad Brick writing TFs EVER AGAIN. They can bring back Adam to write MTMTE, he was good at that.

Agreed. If I want cartoon quality storylines, I will watch the cartoon.

Petitions rarely get results, at least in the degree desired.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

I signed it. :p They weren't Furman, but I still want to see the conclusion to their storyline.

This is why Transformers will inevitably be treated like a **** second class storyline.

The fandom, for the most part, will accept anything with the TF logo on it, and love it.

Except if it's G2 or Beast Wars/Machines, because actually showing the consequences of intergalactic war, or trying to branch out beyond trucks and planes is anathema to the cartoon and thus evil.

Bah.

Don't worry yourself - they'll probably get the job if DD get the license.

Welcome to the board.

Can someone explain to me how petitioning to bring Mick and Patyk back helps Don and Simon?

Sorry - not signing. I hope they get the money owed to them but after that i would happily never see them near TFs ever again.

or as Brawn would no doubt say:

"Slag! I ain't slaggin' letting those slaggin' slaggers near my slaggin' license again! Don't you slaggin' agree Slag?"

"Me Slag say slaggin no slaggin way! Slagnabbit."
