Of course it doesn't because everything today is a debt trap so one can never have a good "life".
Raising the prices of everything yet pay is still awful, and job finding sucks.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

Who says he didn't know? All of their interactions were pretty chummy, as though they already both knew each other, and Galvatron did have that line about "brotherhood" back in #42 of exRiD...

Back in 2005 Dreamwave owed Hasbro $500,000 in licensing fees alone for less than year so you can imagine 12 years later what IDW has to pay. Cheap? Not even.
Maybe they should drop some licenses instead of raising the risks of becoming bankrupt.
Instead of having (simplify) 100 mediocre comics maybe have 20-30 really good ones, that way IDW gets to cheap out less and actually maybe pay off any debts.
That's... not how it works.

Because Galvatron is a nut ball. And it's very obviously he doesn't known arcee but feels something with her

Randomhero wrote:yeah they're not debts, they're fees. They have to pay to produce.
Just like the Masterpiece line. Theirs a reason only Prowl and Bumblebee have been brought over and it's because Hasbro also has to pay the licensing fees to the car companies that own those car models and it's obviously very expensive and legal paperwork and Hasbro doesn't want to do it.
And they don't need to "drop" and licenses because you and a vocal minority of the Internet don't like what they're producing. They're doing well with why they have and apparently the companies they they're working with are satisfied with what they're doing.
Little bit off topic, and your point isn't wrong, but we don't know the licensing is the only reason for this.Randomhero wrote:Just like the Masterpiece line.

- Primus and Unicron at the beginning
- Primus splits off parts of himself that become The Guiding Hand
- The first Titans, being Meteoplex, Chela, and Metrotitan, serve TGH in Primus' fight against Unicron (departure from Aligned alert!) Knights of Cybertron may or may not be around at this point.
- KoC leave with the Titans.
- The Thirteen come later, with currently unknown origins. Eventually they have their War of the Primes.
- Galvatron kills Nexus Prime, and the other surviving Primes flee (except for A3), eventually starting collonies somehow.
- Galvatron and Nova usher in the Golden Age.
- Ark 1 departs, Crystal City disappears,
Nominus comes to power.- Clampdown and Sentinel and Towards Peace and Megatron stuff, Zeta Prime eventually,
then Autobot/Decepticon war.

You're right, my bad. Page 14 of Optimus Prime #10 only notes the Titans serving Primus in that war, not The Guiding Hand.Randomhero wrote:There's nothing in IDW that says the Guiding Hand fought against Unicron.
With Optimus Prime embroiled in the FIRST STRIKE event, the Autobots on Earth set off on a mission to find one of their own—before anti-Cybertronian humans get to him first!
