If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Hmmmm, Geoff's Head.
It's kinda got a ring to it

Well, I just read it and darn, so many guns!
An interesting evolution to the new Death's Head indeed, but the connection to the old versions that was promised in early information never really happened.
Too bad the AmFan mag itself couldn't live on, but I guess it had a lot of trouble finding it's audience, since some of the storys altho featuring interesting concepts, were a bit disappointing.
I'd love to see a continuation of the story of the new Scorpion, easily the best property to come out of the experiment that was Amazing Fantasy Volume 2.

Can anyone be bothered to scan the last page, perhaps?

All right, but just because I'm happy for any kind of human contact.
On graphical little thingies like this you can count on me!
Now... if EmmVee and Besters would just put me to work...

That body.
That face.
The old personality....
....and his new role as GEIST agent and freelance 'problem solver'.
That will work. COME ON MARVEL! You can still salvage this whole sorry episode.
Please

Ta.
Doesn't seem any more exciting than the first few issues I got, TBH.

In itself the issue wasn't. I struggled to read it to the end. I just wanted there to be some insight into who this knew DH was, and to just get that tempting little morsel at the end and nothing else was disapointing.

Rubish, rubish, and ever so slightly more, rubish. You might think the first few issues of Energon were fairly rubish but that's just peanuts compared to the rubishness of DH3, which may well be the worst thing Furman's ever done.
Can anyone explain the point of the visit to the South American prison place? DH didn't rescue who he was supposed to, nor who he wanted to but it had no effect on the plot whatsoever. Most of those two issues could have been cut out completely and the comic would have been improved a fair bit.
Forget Geoff's Head, a comic about Geoff Capes as a super assasin would have been more fun.

"Geoff Capes; Athelete, Strongman, and Prizewinning Budgerigar breeder"
Sometimes reality is much more satisfying

See, with one simple sentence I have entertained you all about five million times more than all five issues of DH3 put together!
Geoff Capes and the Budgerigar's of Death! coming to a comic store near you soon!
