         Yeah, I hate Beast Wars so much that I lobbied for Dinobot to win the TF Hall of Fame and I had Bob Forward write the foreword to my third book. I hate Beast Wars so much that my first comic about Transformers back in 1997 was about how Beast Wars toys rule and G1 toys suck.

       How? Just how can you hate Beast wars and Optimus Primal? He was awesome. Hating Beast Machines I can understand, but Beast Wars?

   I’ve been re-reading through the old comics. Does anyone else think Robin’s face looks sort of asian in the last 2 panels?

     Her eyes eyes are really narrow.
     Therefore she’s Asian.
     …That’s kinda racist…

     But yes, she does look Asian.

   I’ve just noticed that Robin hasn’t done anything insane for quite a few comics. She must be approaching critical mass at this point…

   Robin’s face in panel 5. Words cannot appropriately describe the level of awesomeness I see there. If you think about it, that’s a pretty intense stare she’s giving him.

   I was born in 89, whenever G1 was airing I was either not alive or not aware of the world around me enough to watch it. I ‘did’ however, watch Beast wars (named Beasties in Canada due to a violent titling law thing here) and I thought it was awesome. Beast machines was a little more hit and miss but still enjoyable.

   Is it weird that I do not car for Beast Wars as much as I care for Beast Machines? I don’t know why but Beaet Wars just didn’t do it for me… I am weird… *hides in corner*

     Oh, it’s okay, sweetheart. I love Beast Machines too. Although, according to Bitter Fanboys: The Panel at Dragoncon last year, that apparently means that I don’t actually exist.

     I also like Transformers Prime and that apparently makes thier bitter little heads go ‘splodey.

   I bet the people who did all the crappy Americanize video games covers did the sourcebook.
