Last Stand

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!

Skimming the thread at IDW I'm getting the impression that SPOILERS OMG IMPACTOR RETURNS!!!!1!11!!1one If true (Orbital and sodding FP had copies but aren't allowed to sell them until tomorrow) then I haven't been as excited by a comic since I was a nipper.

I'm guessing I wasn't the only one grilling FP about when they're getting this issue in today? Who else? Enough to make an impact?

I called them and visited the shop after work in case they'd put a few out ahead of today...made sure to mention the reason I was there, too.

There was quite a healthy number of people in the Transformers corner, mostly skimming Bumblebee #3. I had a read. It's a bit gash, so I didn't get it, but I might pick up the Fun Pubs issue with Kup in it when I go in later.

I ****ing hate when they have comics but refuse to put em out until the next day.

Hi, can i give you some money for something you have in stock?

No.

Suspect it's down to the snug feeling of Dianmond's hands on their scrotum in fairness.

The guy I spoke to said they used to put IDW comics out on Wednesday but Diamond told them to quit it. What.

Wednesday is New Comic Day.

If I go into FP on a Wednesday and it isn't on the shelf, I just get it off eBay or wherever and have it sent to my door by somebody who is willing to sell it.

Simples.

I have now read this. I like.

Nice. Stuff happens. Blood and guts. I got a bit lost with all the names and faces floating around, especially the way these mostly post-86 TFs all blur together anyway. It's still nice not to see a story tied down to the need to involve humans.

Or do one big poo in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I bet they weren't even excited by and then subsequently disappointed by Star Wars Prequels. Or have a glass full of spare change near their beds. That they don't have.

Its nice to see that something is actually happening for a change.

This looks and feels like a Tfs Comic, not like all the **** of recent months.
