It just brings up the old idea that Gender in Transformers only exists through the Fembots. I've never understood the need to sexualise Giant alien robots, but it exists now and can't be undone.
You are confusing Gender with Sex.
They are not the same thing. The Transformers have never been SEXUALIZED.
No, there's no confusion. I go by what I was taught through education, not the recent Newspeak of the last couple years. Of which I take no interest in the current fads and superficial hashtags of social media.
But I digress...
How is that Not sexualised????? Or the emphasis on the accentuation of hips, chest and lipstick of G1 Arcee?

The difference between a Free Comic Book Day issue and the series that follows it, usually, is a couple of months at least. So expect something in either June or July solicitations.

let's just ignore the casual racism there for a moment, kiss players is a thing in transformers, like it or not, so don't start moving the goal posts now. You said there was no sexualisation in transformers...kiss players proves you wrong. Now if you want to start being more speific like saying there's no sexualisation in the g2 transformers comic for example then we can agree or disagree based on the answer given.Galactic Prime wrote:ZeroWolf wrote:G1 arcee is sexualised, as are all the fembots to be fair, and again, I'll bring up kiss players...
You're simply flat out wrong. Kiss Players don't even count as they are barely even a line and are a Japan only thing. The Japanese sexualize everything, they're friggin weirdos like that.

Speaking of, just how big is Unicron's thing going to be?
I'm talking about his story arc, you sick bastard.

I hope this is the case! If Flatline had been more prominent I'd say he's a good candidate, but he seems to be perpetually in a "background character with a few lines a year" state.ZeroWolf wrote:it's a shame that there's currently no one taking on the role of sideways from armada, unless barber reveals there's been one in plain sight the whole time.
The earliest confirmed case of something like "thought about it, didn't do it" was the end of Dark Cybertron. That said, given the language used by OP in DoOP, I'd say they opened up the IDWverse to allow for his existence as early as that.ZeroWolf wrote:Flatline...Flatline...
*rushes off to a wiki to remember who Flatline is*
okay, back up to speed. Yeah, someone of that calibre. Can't fault the writers mind for not having one as it would require very good planning skills, has it been said at what point the writers decided to bring unicron into the comics?
Milne: I personally feel it's a good way to get into reading. For some people looking at a wall of text can be a little overwhelming, while a comic book adds a visual component to the mix which can help the reader understand more of what the story is trying to communicate without having to read a description. There are also so many comics out there today for people to enjoy with a vast multitude of stories. To me, it's an underrated medium that deserves more respect than it gets. It's an excellent way to tell stories and a tradition that should be preserved.
John Barber wrote: This is the end of the story we’ve been telling for over a decade. The IDW Transformers comics are the longest-lasting iteration Transformers characters ever—there’s more fiction in this universe than anywhere else in the history of the brand—and it all comes crashing down with Transformers: Unicron.

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