All Hail Megatron Coda #13 to #16

[Sky Shadow]

anyhoo i understand that this is only for 13-16 but i feel more people will read my things here so whatever.

It is? That's news to me. Even if it is, it doesn't excuse its suckage. After all, the G1 and G2 comics were originally written for kids and they (generally) didn't suck quite as hard as AHM.

Kuzzy meant that this thread is only for issues 13 to 16, not that the comics are meant for ages 13 to 16.

Um... I don't know exactly what this is, but I think it's making fun of Drift (so yay!):

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's hilarious!
I love how Drift speaks and thinks in Japlish/Engrish and the art is done in a hyperbolised manga style. Aaaah... <wipes.tear.from.eye>

Got #15 and #16 delivered today.

#15 was 50% fantastic, and 50% boring, and funnily it split right in the middle of the comic! The Prowl/Kup story was the best we have had in years, and I hope that we get to see this story influence the ongoing and mini series, as it is a big powerplay Prowl has get going.
But like all the cool and interesting plots and ideas that have been introduced in the IDW run, I bet it gets forgotten or retconned out of existence.

After the great Roche story came a dull boring story that did nothing in 11 pages.

And #16 was the issue that deserved to end AHM, the series goes out with a comic with messy art and a large focus on terribly written, boring fleshbags, just like the majority of the series. I would recommend those 2-3 people who still buy AHM to skip #16, as you do not miss anything.

And so now to wait for the next two mini series. After what Roche did with Kup and Prowl, I cannot wait for his Wreckers mini, and I'll grab the Bumblebee mini, but remain weary.

From what I have seen and heard about the direction for the ongoing (Spike to be a main player) it can go to hell. (but as I am weak, I'll probably get the trades... )

At least the trades look good when they are all sitting together on the bookshelf

Just finished reading the AHM Coda TPB and I pretty much agree with everyone else. The Prowl/Springer/Kup story was the best by far. I liked the pretender and cy-gar (although I detest the word) explaination. I also didn't mind the Perceptor story. I could relate to it a little bit and it explained why Perceptor became "another clown with a gun". But that whole super stud Spike in hospital with the sexy nurses... Puh-lease. Did Michael Bay write that because that was the vibe I got from it.

Overall not a fantastic TPB saved only by the Kup/Perceptor stories.
