So what I got from this is that it will be a political talking heads book as shown in the preview. There will also be few Transformations because there will be very little action. Characters from many KOntinuities will show up for nostalgia purposes, but nothing will be done with them because the book will focus relentlessly on the same cast from Windblade. The average Transformers fan can't just jump into TAAO without reading years worth of IDW history, so they're going to try to attract the Archie comic and romance novel crowd.
Okay, got it.

I don't think that'needs to be called for. Personally I'm not a fan of her writing. I'm gonna say something and I'm going to apologize if any one is offended but personally I feel she's only the writer because she's a woman and she wrote two episodes of Prime and IDW thinks that's enough to give her a shot. Yes she wrote beast hunters but I didn't really enjoy that series. I'm sorry I don't mean to sound terrible like that but she came on the the main comics at a time of "hey everyone! Look female transformers! We're gonna have a comic with a female transformer as the main character in it, it's going to be written by a woman and drawn by a woman too!" It felt really forced and in my opinion the execution wasn't very good. Anymore it just feels like she's writing this because she's a woman who has a small history with the brand.
Again I apologize, I don't like saying something like that but it's a vibe I get off. I've said before I didn't enjoy the first two Windblade comics she wrote but I am happy to give till all are one a chance.
From comics to politics, when a woman is employed in an area with a male majority, you see this... odd core of people who talk of them being unqualified, only being there because of gender - stranger still, it's vanishingly rare, if not non-existent, for this group to question the qualifications of any men working in that area.Prowl4 wrote:Randomhero wrote:Prowl4 wrote:I'd appreciate if this hack mairghread scott left transformers.

She is there because she's a woman and she's pushing her agenda through the material which is uttered revolting in my opinion. She needs to go as her work is terrible.

Is the author a woman? Is the main character she uses female?
it's not just her, it's Roberts and Barber coming heavy with the agendas and social engineering as well. It's what an adult would do with their Transformers collection. Pose them on a shelf and have them debate and crack jokes. No real TF action because they're too sophisticated for it. It's time for all 3 of them to write something else.Prowl4 wrote:Randomhero wrote:Prowl4 wrote:I'd appreciate if this hack mairghread scott left transformers. Awful writer.

Yeah, no hint of greater consequences for Chromia's crime is a flaw - you quoted me talking about that flaw on the previous page of this thread. I'm not sure what your point is? Are you trying to say that since there is at least one flaw in something I like, I cannot defend its overall quality?

My point is that I can't say Scott is a good writer when the entire plot of that comic is trying to find proof that starscream is behind a terrorist attack only for the protagonist's best friend to be the culprit and do nothing about it but tell her to not do it again. That's not good writing.

Idw has inserted fembots that face no real consequences such as death. In fairness to Michael bay he killed the fembots in rotf but comics and tv series won't.
Roberts stuff was good but it's completely disturbing with the homosexual material.

You're starting to border into behaviour I am not a fan of.
Disagreement, even visceral - if you really must - is fine. Labelling homosexuality, gender issues, social commentary as 'disturbing' or 'making you sick' is not.
