These previews have prompted a bit of criticism on the IDW boards about the inconsistencies between this series and the ongoing. For example Blurr is a sports car and talks normally in Ongoing #3 and I have a certain sympathy for that, but IDW did warn us that it had allowed the writers/artists freedom to portray the characters in their original G1 guises.
The badge's bizarre ability to protect Bumblebee from a point blank gun shot concerns me more; is it generating forcefields or something? It looks like the type of badge you'd get if you were visiting a company...
The plot does tie in nicely with the ongoing though, with this issue seemingly following on direct from Ongoing #3. I hope it proves the critics wrong.

yeah its getting alot of comment on the IDW boards. but TBH i think if your not following the ongoing it fits right in with where we last saw him in AHM so maybe IDW are allowing people to essentially follow their OWN continuity. im not mad on the return of the fasttalk either but at least the reason for it is referenced in the preview. on the point blank shot im getting the vibe that its not actually a forcefield but that thats just where blurr hit him, bang on the badge. kinda like what you'd see in the ol cop films in the 70s  which to me would mean that i suspect that BBs badge isnt working properly now and if as i think it doubles as a method of controling the bots through some manner or another BB is basically a free agent again. mucho guess work i know but i think theres alot more to that than what were supposed to think. looking forward to this . though cant wait for wreckers. |
