No need to start calling people out. That's a bit disrespectful.

Still waiting on MTMTE 45..... :BOT:

Work and home life have been hectic lately (in good ways) so I just this morning got caught up an a couple of months of TF comics. I agree with Scottyp, this may be the best comic I ever read, for that last spread alone. It was simply a great issue. I love the concept of a Megatron that isn't simply evil personified. I like my bad guys to be relatable. Rewind continues to climb up the ranks of my personal "most favorite characters ever" list.

Why was Rodimus drawn as a fembot from the waist down?

I believe that MTMTE is aimed at the LGBT portion of the fandom and Hasbro knows this which is why MTMTE is never included as a pack in comic with the toys.

Since the MTMTE is not intended for me I will be dropping the book before #50. There won't be much to see after #50 since the book seems to be collapsing in on itself anyway.



I'm going to take issue with this. I'm a very conservative and pretty religious person. Liberalism can make my skin crawl, yet I've grown to hate politics from any side of the fence. I really can't stand it when any political agendas are beat over my head in entertainment media.

That said, your post is ridiculous. This is a comic about an alien spiecies. Why are you judging it based on human concepts of love and sex? Its not blatant, and is woven into the story almost perfectly. I'm far more concerned with Hasbro forcing their hotline ideas and designs on the story. Also, the world isn't made up of only hetero males. Everthing you read isn't always going to fit your personal world view, or mine, or anyone elses, you need to get over that in a hurry, or move to a cabin in the middle if nowhere.

You are right on one thing though, this comic isn't intended for you. Its intended for everybody. Or at least every transformers fan. You want to quit reading? Fine, that's your right, but you are only hurting yourself.

Yeah I must admit, even though I am a huge fan of a lot of the characters and designs in MTMTE, I don't agree with the LGBT edge.

Also I don't believe all political people are dishonest btw, but a lot of them are. I am not going to say specifically who I am rooting for this Presidential Election, but let's just say that they are the most honest out of the bunch, even though a lot of people hate him. >:oP
