I've lost my passion for TF due to the bigger and bigger disappointment I've got toward the end of the TF: Ongoing series. The wonderful show Person of Interest just came in time and further dragged me away from the TF fandom (I wonder if Thundercracker would enjoy the show lol), so I didn't pay attention to the new two ongoing series IDW released on early 2012 even if they are written by John Barber (I like his movie comics) and James Roberts (Last Stand of the Wreckers)--I just got myself disappointed to many times to find the enthusiasm to give IDW TF comics another try (not when I have POI to occupy my time, anyway). But thanks to
[#7 spoiler]
So you can imagine how happy I was seeing Rung seem to survive the blast (well, at least for now). It was REALLY touching to see Red Alert saying that Rung is the only person he TRUSTS. Rung would be so proud of himself if he heard that.
The DJD is a group made of (geeky) BAMFs, that's for sure (did I just say geeky? lol). They remind me of the "thought police" in the book "1984", which made me emphasize the newly appeared Decepticon scavengers even more. They are a bunch of misfits, sure, but they look like ordinary GOOD guys, helping each other in the harsh environment they are in, even able to maintain a cracked sense of humor. I was REALLY sad when I realized they don't even have the right of THINKING FREELY. How in the pit did the DJD knew Fulcrum said he is finally free for the first time? It really gave me creeps because just as in "1984", there's no where to hide for the 'cons, there's only obedience and following orders, or there's only painful death waiting for them. No wonder those 'cons who adopt well are either merciless or kind of crazy-- those who are not "qualified" enough are probably being wiped out by the DJD. I truly hope the bunch of happy-easy-going cons would survive (though they'll probably all end up dead, but one can always hope).
And yeah, organic-tissue-infested TF ship and Grimlock? It smells like Shockwave all over there.
BTW, that symbol ship looks like a huge Decepticon commercial board XDDD
PS: If they don't let Rung live, my rage and feeling only could burn the whole DJD into metal dust.
PPS: Overlord's lips are SO distracting LOLOL
PPPS: DJD inner-shipping/5-some (IN THE NAME OF ONE TRUE MASTER MEGATRON!) anyone?







I love the DJD, especially Tarn.
the ragtag group of decepticons is hilariously funny!
could that ship be shockwave's?
rung survives! now that is okay...
overlord returns...
LOLZ I won't be surprised if there is shipping among the DJD, or one of them ships with megs...
Do you have a tumblr too?
I love those new decepticons, they are funny. I guess the symbol ship is Shockwave's, since it's him who got Grimlock out of G9. Though what the heck did he do on that ship is beyond me (weird bio-mechanical experiment maybe?)
The most popular DJD shipping now is probably Tarn/Vos lol
Tarn, the scary, sadistic DJD leader, is patient enough to teach Vos new-cybertronian language? That speaks shipping value
same here, so hilarious! Agreed. Why is Grimlock there? did shocky take him along and use him for his mad experiments?
Tarn/Vos shipping is a lot. As well as Tarn/Megs for odd reasons.
Tarn and Vos are like father and son. father teacing son new language...sounds a lot like what humans do.
Actually I've been following you for a while since we used to chat a bit on here, but never had much to say since you were more interested in other shows I haven't seen. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it made it hard to randomly stop by an say hello. Anyways, I go by biorobo on tumblr. Glad to hear your interest in Transformers rekindled! Have you checked out RiD? I think it's pretty good too--it has a few parts I find to be pretty ehhhh, but overall it's good. Plus I hear that RiD and MTMTE are going to come together for some crossover issues at some point.
I predict the decepticons in the latest issue will die, which makes me sad since they're really fun. Roberts is too good at making people attached to characters and then killing them off.
I haven't read RID yet, but I've preordered the TFP on amazon. The review pages of RID do look interesting,I wonder how will Bee deal with all the chaos on Cybertron. Politics, hummmmm...
I also worry that the new decepticons will die. My feeling was already damaged by Rung (still suspect what we saw in #7 is only fake hope. I'm paranoid now) and Pharma (I sympathize with him a lot), so I try not to like them too much, haha.
