TF vs Joe comic ending with issue #13

The modern comics universe has had such a different take on G1, one that's significantly represented by the Generations toys, so they share a forum. A modern take on a Real Cybertronian Hero. Currently starring Generations toys, IDW "The Transformers" comics, MTMTE, TF vs GI Joe, and Windblade. Oh wait, and now Skybound, wheee!

TF vs Joe comic ending with issue #13

Bye Felicia

No but seriously, this book never escaped being a hot mess, and while I'm glad they've enjoyed doing it their way, it's such an oddity and so dense that I haven't really kept up with it, I bought them but they're uncracked.

See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?

Yeah, I'm not sorry to see this end. This is the one TF related book that was so God awful that I actually returned it to the comic book store. And that's saying something. I have stuck with some of the worst comics in TF history and can only recall once when I stopped getting a book and this where I actually took it back. Yeah, even the Beast Wars books are still in my collection. And I don't think much of Scioli's art. I've doodled better Transformers drawings on scratch paper. :roll:

This series ran about 13 issues too long.

I've never read an issue. I'm not a big Joe fan anyway, but the retro-art (aka: trying to mimic the poor art from the early days of Marvel Transformers) put me off anyway. And wasn't this book often late?

The art was evocative of pre-80 comics (and was worse than most of the early TF comics). Yes, it was terrible.


And, as is often the case with self-indulgent series, Scioli was often late.

The best thing about this series is that it is almost over.
