Do note that Tarn’s internal monologue has him say he finds it surprisingly easy to say that he won’t kill his team.
Tarn already knows about Deathsaurus’ modus operandi. Deathsaurus has respect for his troops, he gives them a retirement package when they leave. And he is cunning.
What if Tarn knew it was a trick question. But if it was, then why was it surprisingly easy? What is it that people would say and be surprised at how easy it was to say?
Lies.
Heartless murderer whose job is to kill Decepticons who go off-mission kills Decepticon who goes off-mission and is also a heartless murderer. Pardon me if I enjoy it and drink of everyone’s tears who romanticized this group of monsters and killers as some kind of cute, loyal family.
that first scan is from the same issue that opens with tarn super okay with abandoning vos and kaon behind on that planet and nearly tearing off tesarus’s face when he expressed dissatisfaction with this, right
so, yeah
I’ve been thinking about this all day, and it’s kind of distracting me from my Work-work, so I’m going to go ahead and write this down so I’ll get it out of my system.
Spoilers for MTMTE #38…
I’ve said this before: Transformers has historically been a pretty regressive franchise, even for...
the entire 30 year history of the transformers franchise is entirely pointless because it has yet to top a single line from the 1986 transformers movie where Hot Rod and Kup are in court and Hot Rod’s causin’ a ruckus and the judge says “SILENCE OR YOU WILL BE HELD IN CONTEMPT OF THIS COURT” and Hot Rod says “I have nothing BUT contempt for this court” and honestly the movie could have ended right there. franchise over. you’re not gonna top that.
bullshit, in MTMTE rodimus meets or surpasses that line every time he opens his mouth

WHY AM I NOT READING THIS
Seeing what my Lost Light shelf looks like with TR Hot Rod instead of Cloud Rodimus.
So here are some of the characters I’ve been working on lately which have shown up on the cover to MTMTE 41 :) Yes, They are all female transformers and out of these designs 3 of them I also choose the names for.
It was fun to help create these characters. I know I’ve wanted more female characters in transformers for a while now. I’ve always placed one or more in the background of various TF projects I’ve worked on. Now we have the opportunity to have more of them and I’m very happy about that.
When the story came up for having new female characters I knew that I would like to have some of the characters that haven’t been used yet. I know I really wanted Firestar and James was able to get her for MTMTE. Then we were talking and he asked me to come up with a crew of new characters, both male and female and I was pretty excited about that. He didn’t have any names in mind at the time, so I wrote down a bunch of names and looked up on the wiki and tfu.info if they had been used. A lot of them hadn’t to my surprise so I showed them to James and he liked them. I then came up with a head sketch of them, and mentioned which ones were female and which ones were male, and he liked them. then I set out to design them.
These are the design I came up with. I wanted there to be a lot of different looking bots. First I started with Firestar. She is the more traditional look for a female TF, but where her main difference is her height. She is a very tall bot. She towers over most of the others. Not as tall as Megatron or Ultra Magnus, but she’s taller then Rodimus and most of the other Lost Light crew. I also had the idea to give her fire hair since in alt mode her head is the where the exhaust of the car. It also help add a little more emotion to the character since I can have the fire doing different things when she’s feeling different emotions. I thought it was different and something interesting to play with. With her torso design I decided to give her the same style of split canopy that Nautica has since it solved a design issue I was having at the time. Also I like the idea of some of the characters sharing similar design features :)
Next is Javelin. She was fin to draw since I wanted something very different looking. I enjoy the look of the head where is a single eye. i thought can we have a character with a single eye and not be a victim of empurata? why not?.
Next we have Proxima. When I described her to James I said she would be the equal of better of Perceptor. She would be a extreme multitasker. With her e4 head design she has main visor style eye, but 3 other eyes where 2 can move around her head.
Roadmaster was fun to design. I wanted a big characters that looked like she would bend and break you if you looked at her the wrong way. She is the biggest of the characters I’ve designed so far, matching Ultra Magnus in height (well to his head, not shoulders) When I was working on this character I thought an interesting variant would be to make a strika out of her, but then I would want strika to be a bit bigger then her. But the idea is in the back of my mind so maybe I’ll work something out of it?|
Last character who isn’t on the cover, but I saw that she was partially shown on a post on the credit’s page is Velocity. Another fun design where I got to play around with features that I don’t normally see with many TF’s :)
Thats it for now
Enjoy :)
Guess what was waiting for us when we got home.

What has Udon done that was bad? Not sure what specifically to look up.
thankskenpenders answered:
Director of Publishing Matt Moylan is a ComicsGate-style annoying reactionary nerd who complains about how everything isn’t exactly the same as how it was in the ‘80s, and that seems to be the main audience he wants to court. Transformers fans know him as the guy who made “LilFormers,” a comic strip he often used to complain about every little change in the Transformers franchise and call new female characters Mary Sues and stuff like that
It also bugs me how flagrantly horny a lot of Udon’s output is, like the Street Fighter Swimsuit Special that is quite literally just softcore hentai. Believe me when I say I am not anti-horny. If this was a fan zine I wouldn’t bat an eye. But when you’ve got an official Capcom-licensed Street Fighter book out where the cover is literally just a closeup of a sunbathing Chun-Li’s boobs and thighs with her face cropped out… yeah, that rubs me the wrong way. Especially when juxtaposed with Moylan’s personal views, it paints a bad picture
