Marvel G2 comic scans

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!

Marvel G2 comic scans

Post by Destron » Sat Nov 15, 2008 4:31 pm

Hi,

for a long time I've been trying to find good quality G2 scans on the Internet. Unfortunately the only ones I've managed to track down up to now were poorly made and sometimes even hardly readable stuff (3MB per issue? Gimme a break!). Considering how much we all love G2 and Yaniger's art (don't we?), it's a shame really.

Could somebody please point me where to look for those scans? Or, if it is the case that there aren't any better versions available, can someone who is in possession of the printed comics copy it, for the sake of the fandom? :)

And what, exactly, is wrong with asking for scans of a comic book that hasn't been printed since '93?

The Marvel G2 run has been available as trade paperbacks for several years.

Called Dark Designs and A Rage in Heaven.

Now if you wanted scans of the tie-in GI-Joe issues, then we could talk hard-to-find (though they may have been reprinted as well).

Does anyone have the gi-joe back issues? - I stopped collecting
the UK run at 308 (or somthing) and am intrigued to know how the war on cobra island went...

I've only got the G2 tie-in issues, I think 138-142. But I thought someone was reprinting the Marvel stuff somewhere.

Not to my knowledge? :eyebrow:

But isn't anyone going to link him to a reputable online comic-dealer who has the trades? Or at the very least to Amazon?

Sigh...

Very well...

Check stuff on this page as well, I think there's better prices there.

They were done in the early-to-mid-90s, when there was a dearth of official product and us kids were quite glad of anything Transformers Brendan, Ryan and Roger stuck up online.

While I have the TPBs of the US G2 series, I *DO* also have scans of the first two UK G2 issues, which was quite different, abandoning the crossover altogether. I don't suppose these will EVER be reprinted (Or at least, the chances of it happening are on a par with us seeing the final issues of WW:AoW) so if anyone wants I could share them.
