Maximum Dinobots

Worst. Comic-accuracy. Ever.

Worst. Comic-accuracy. Ever.

Grimlock's overall 'engineering' remains identical even if 'kibble' has been changed to represent the corrected T-Rex shape.

Snarl is pretty much 'What the hell?' as he is completly redone from scratch which I find it odd as he didn't really have to be.

The same goes for Swoop and Slag (although to a lesser degree than Swoop).

When it comes to Sludge, its hard to see him properly but it seems that he like Grimlock, may have kept his general 'engineering' without major change (although robot mode detailing is way different) and despite his G1 alt mode becoming obsolete, he still passes as an Apatosaurus as the general shape of the dinosaur remains the same.

When it comes to my pic, Despite their differences in look and design, they are still Dinobots and identifiable. I am basically tributing a comic which focuses on the 5 characters that in comic form, have more or less remained the same as a group and individual characters particularly when it comes to Grimlock and Swoop.

Read issues 4 and 5 today. I think the story was let down by very sudden shifts in art style in both issues, almost page to page at times. The conclusion still makes me think that despite the events in AHM, spoiler Sunstreaker will live on, just like in the Furman Mosaic, as Hunter's just repressed the Sunstreaker part of his mind.

One thing I didn't expect was the spoiler appearance of Ultra Magnus. I liked the way this story gave closure to story elements from several Spotlights and the ongoing series.

#5 was one of the best written comics I have read in a long time.

The revelations comics suffered from their condensed nature, and I don't think even the die hard AHM fans (if they exist) could say that AHM has solid writing.

Wrapping up the character arcs for not only the title characters (and who they made their IDW debut with too) but another near half a dozen characters who have all recieved a decent amount of page time over the length of the IDW Furmanverse. The surprise addition of Hunter and Verity was nice, and somewhat needed since the truncated "-tions" series saw them removed altogether.

Will miss the scope and vastness of Furmans writing, especially when he signs off with such a strong issue.

Wow, they sure tied up a good amount of loose ends in that issue. However I am not sure what to make of it, I liked the issue but I was expecting some grandiose ending but I guess that's just me.

Overall I enjoyed it and I really felt sad at the start when Sludge was 'confirmed' as dead. I have always liked Sludge for some reason as despite him being the arguably strongest and biggest of the Dinobots, he was also the 'softy' and good natured one of the gang and I always found that cool. However although I was relieved when I saw Sludge brought back to life, I am a bit unsure of what happened, it looked as if Grimlock punched his chest like a form of 'CPR' or something and that did it.

Another strange thing is that nobody really died in this story which was odd but since many of the characters are likely to be reused or are bing used in AHM, it is understandable but kind of artificial as its more plot managing than a natural progression.

Overall I enjoyed it but for some reason I expected more.

While I wish it was more grandiose, #5 was really quite good. Nice to see particular characters again after Devastation left their fates as a cliffhanger.

I just wish that this was tying into something that wasn't AHM, since there's more that needs to be said besides Megatron and the Decepticons blowing stuff up.

SPOILER WARNING







SPOILER WARNING FOR ISSUE 5 OF MINIMUM DEENOBOTS


Whats with Verity and jimmy???!!! they look nothing like they did before in Devastation!

Also, how is it that Optimus and ratchets ARK show up??? At the end of DEVASTATION im sure they had LEFT Earth to go somewhere

It was an okay ending i mean, we all know from AHM that things have to be tied up. from issue 9 of AHM i thought that Shockwave would die

Roche draws his humans very differently to Su... What threw me off were the Autobot spacesuits they were wearing.

Also, how is it that Optimus and ratchets ARK show up??? At the end of DEVASTATION im sure they had LEFT Earth to go somewhere

I think that maybe something we will see mentioned in the CODA series, we know that Prime's Autobots head back to Earth between revelations and AHM.
