FCBD GI Joe Vs. The Transformers

Well that was weird.

Really weird.

Way better than the fanwank that usually passes for a GI Joe/TF join, though.

This could have been.... Acceptable... I guess... Had they chosen Dan Reed for the art.

THIS...WAS...AWESOME!! :D It really spoke to my inner child - this was the first time I've actually really enjoyed any sort of G.I Joe fiction.*
I'm definitely picking up EVERY issue of this. ^^

*reads negative comments*

What the... really...?
This was really bad.... like really...
Jeesh! You guys HAVE NO SPARK! You're all automatons! Facsimile-constructs! Probably created by Snarl, while under the influence of excessive amounts of weaponized nucleon, you circuit-oxidized Shockwaves, you!

Except apparently, Paul. 0_0

*Gives hand-unit in friendship, to the last real bot on the boards.*


*well, except, like, 2 Storm Shadow -centric issues from back in the late 80's.

This is amazing. It's nuts and having a great time being nuts. In some ways it feels like a parody of the cartoon.

What I love about this:

If it were written in earnest, it would be a Dreamwave comic. But it's a goofy joke. That reads, storywise, exactly like a Dreamwave comic.

Yep - it is almost as if Brad Mick or Mike Costa has developed a sense of self awareness and is ruthlessly mocking themselves.

Altho to be fair we had that covered.
