That isn't irony. Adult fans are allowed to think Transformers should have progressed beyond what it was nearly two decades ago. Particularly when All Hail Megatron's idea of G1 doesn't progress beyond 1986.Originally Posted by Hereticpoo
That's all good and well to claim that's what's in the comic. But that's not what's there on paper in the first six issues, even if that's what the writer intended. As I said in this thread way back in August last year, if "this was going to be a comic about an Earth ruled by the Decepticons with Megatron as a dictator. That would have been a great comic." Maybe the next few issues will deal with that and your supposed point of the story. And as I said, that would be great. But it hasn't done it yet.The story's focus is Megatron. The point of the story is the the emptiness of the decepticon cause. The Autobots aren't able to do anything except reel in shock, and Megatron is consolodating and trying to give his existenece meaning. Wow, thats totally boring....
Some texts are empirically better than others, I don't care if it's arrogant, but to say Beast Wars isn't better than All Hail Megatron would be like saying Hamlet isn't better than a week's episodes of Neighbours. This is the review section of the forum. That's what we do... review. What I find ridiculous about this is that nobody would have a problem if we said Classics Grimlock is better than Animated Grimlock or vice versa. How is it any different to say X comic book is worse than Y comic/TV show?
