In regards to this issue I have a little theory about the act of empurata; after the mechanoid's hand/s or head (or both) are removed and replaced what happens to the originals?
Maybe, they're not destroyed. Ratchet made good use of Pharma's hands (okay, not the rite of empurata but you see where I'm going with this - hopefully.)
this series is absolutely brilliant. love it!
i'll probably go through it again to check, but what was megatrons connection to the battle over the spark hotspot involving roller? megatron and the crew decided that brainstorm was going back in time to kill orion pax, but then later decided he was actually following megatrons past. i don't remember a connection between that event and megatron. was there something else important happening at that specific time involving megatron somewhere else, and the crew just jumped to where orion pax was because of their first theory which turns out to be incorrect? do we get told something else happened?
Yes its explained, the Hotspot incident (which took place 1st Cycle 502 as established during the phone call ) is a date Megatron points out as important in #37 (it's the day he first killed somebody).
ah ok thanks
Well. That was intense. So many references back to the start of the series, and what IS Rung?
