bad luck

Over the last 25 years the Transformers have appeared in media from the exquisite to the scribbled and been licensed to the responsible and the... Pat Lee. Discussion of all the branches of TF media within!

bad luck

I would swear that someone is out to get the franchise. First, we get an interesting start off from Sarracini in Armada. It looks like fun and then WHAM- 3rd issue kiddie fest. The title gets derailed for another four issues and doesn't really get back on track until the moonbase. Then, things get really good, and we have the damn good storyline that was Worlds Collide. But then -WHAM!- yet again the title gets derailed in order to facilitate Hasbro's orders concerning the Energon launch. Basically eight issues of set up per Hasbro's commands and little actual in the way of quality writing. But then, things actually pick up and we get a storyline that combines good writing and art and makes you actually anticipate the next issue. Plus, waiting in the wings is a sure-fire fun fest that Furman was actually given a heads up to prepare for. It looked good, so naturally the hammer fell yet again as DW imploded and took the now-interesting Energon with it.

Maybe it's just me and my unhealthy emotional investment in these characters, but it seems that the fates are interested in continually screwing over the Armada/Energon comic.

Oh well, at least we got some decent material out of it, unlike a certain other TF continuity....*coughG1cough*.

Yeah, when you put it like that, the title was jinxed. :(
