Transformers Transformers Prequel Comics Discussion Thread

Yeah, his protoform looks a lot better than his new alt-form.

 

[Theweepeople]

Even though his protoform looks better I think his earth also looks better than I thought it would in the comic. I can accept the way his head looks in standard mode and even his legs looked considerably better in the destiny tv spot. It's pretty obvious that changes were made to Starscream's design after the fan backlash became evident to Paramount.

Nice. I love how it's hinted that Starscreams not really there to find Megatron....but only the Allspark!

You're lucky. I live in Southern California and we must have some of the worst comic book stores in the US. After each comic was officially released I had to wait a few months for the locale comic book stores to have them in stock. I don't expect to be able to buy prequel #4 until June.

 

[Overman27pj]

OUCH Dude!

 

[Overman27pj]

Picked up the new issue at lunch...It is pretty sweet, the best of the 4, and I suggest highly suggest it.

Starscream is a pretty big badass in it.

[Overman27pj]

Isn't cap dead?

Got issue #4 today.

The cons kick ass. I am definetly loving their vibe. They are pretty sneaky and kick ass.

Here's a little summary

Spoiler

Sector Seven plans a trap for Bumblebee (N.B.E 2/ Non-Biological entity) using a an isototpe which transmits a signal similiar to the alspark, but... THE CONS CRASH THE PARTY plus they know of of Bumblebee presence on Earth. Let's just say they're gonna have a little fun

Is starscream's earth mode somewhat respectable or does he still have chicken legs?

The only time you see Starscream's earth mode is in the same page as the 5 page preview.

So yeah...
