This is an essential read
Hey kids! I’m down to my last few boxes of Gen Mechs, 2025’s magisterial account of pre-internet Transformers — a book which at least one person (me) says is the best ever written. This is your last chance to own “a landmark in pop cultural studies”. Email [email protected]

There are some seriously entitled homophobic/transphobic/racist bellends and gimps in the #Transformers fandom who are ideal candidates for post-third trimester abortions.

Let’s get this straight: @jroberts332 is on the Mount Rushmore of #Transformers writers. His IDW run was one of the best crafted pieces of TF fiction. The fact that not everyone likes his use of Star Saber doesn’t mean it was badly written. I prefer the Victory version but I do

absolute masterpiece of weaving together the Kup in his Spotlight with the Kup in All Hail Megatron, while setting up the Wreckers series. James has already done sufficient world building in IDW to allow some talented creative team to do something similar with Star Saber.

For example, he could be similar to Ultra Magnus in the sense that the Brainmaster robot could be different characters wearing the armour. Absolutely no need for the dickhead behaviour on show from some sections of the fandom about this.

Going to launch some limited edition prints soon

Sat in the Switch Island Odeon cinema in a bad boy reclining seat waiting for #TransformersTheMovie to start. Words can’t express how excited I am, or how jealous 5 year old me would have been.

I try to avoid politics & socio-cultural things on this account but right now the world would be a better place if everyone left of centre was forced to read Baker’s later Wittgenstein to understand how language works, and what philosophical problems are…

It’s no wonder the world is so fucked & run by right wing evil. Those of us with genuine hearts & good intentions on the left get nowhere because everyone else is too busy playing attention seeking intersectional top-trumps rather than supporting each other in our hour of need.

Thinking about dragging myself into the modern era - what set ups (hardware / software) are people using for art / fanzine creation?

If only the next panel had Ratbat responding with “They call me a butcher!” - I think the only person who would get that joke/reference would be @jroberts332

I’m in my early 40s, and have been a fan of Transformers since 1984. My main continuity interests are: The Japanese G1, Beast Wars & RID series. IDW’s MTMTE & LL comics. Furman’s Marvel UK comics. The US G1 cartoon (seasons 1&2). The US Beast Wars (Seasons 1&2).

I also love: TF fanfiction that isn’t “Mary Sue” or focused on “Shipping”. Progressive TF fiction that addresses important social/political issues respectfully. The TF fan community (minus the sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, bellends - I will happily fight any of you).

I’m not a fan of: The Dreamwave or Skybound comics. Bayverse (but went to see the first two films in the cinema). Unicron Trilogy or the Prime era. BotCon fiction. Fanfiction that is Mary Sue, “shipping”, tokenistic. But if that’s what you’re into we can co-exist in the fandom
