 This week, you think you're a real man? Well, has simply having a haircut ever given you the body of Sylvester Stallone? No? Then you've nothing on Spike Witwicky as I look at the issue of the Mike Costa ongoing with his single best remembered moment.
It's the scrap of the century as I look at Transformers issue 8!

 This week, fittingly for the 100th Revisitation, it's a story looking backwards to the earliest days of IDW, as Irohide remembers his good pals Outback and Blurr's Boss.
All this and a swarn of activity on Cybertron as I look at Ironhide Issue 2!  This week, in the last Revisitation of my 40th year, Megatron is feeling very middle aged as well as he looks out on how the bunch of idiots he commands are doing without him.
The answer being "Badly." Plus, see how Prime is doing at not undermining Bumblebee's leadership at every turn. The answer is "Badly." All as I look at Issue 7 of the Mike Costa Ongoing!  This week, it's the biggest Revisitation yet as I look at a comic that asks more serious and complicated questions than any Transformers story to date.
Plus, it has time for a Shaun of the Dead gag. It's all as I apply the right amount of pressure to my look at Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 5! Plus, Addendum 11 has Skyfall say "We're done" as I look at the text story Bullets! Spend Sunday getting Wrecked.  This week, it's all about Ironhide!
Or really, more about Prime. And Prowl. But, either way, it's the first issue of the Ironhide Miniseries!  This week on Revisitation, the short-lived leader faces their predecessor coming back because the rank and file guys have no imagination.
If only there was some way to make that relevant to current events. It's all in my look at issue 6 of the Costa Ongoing!  Halloween Ends.
Yes, it’s a quick non-Transformers review, for the first time in ages. Largely because I had a lot of thoughts on the latest entry in the Halloween series, especially after talking to my good friends Alex and Umar about it (whose own, more professional reviews you can read by clicking on their names). I’ve also found the overall reaction pretty interesting; people seem to be pretty much divided between thinking its an absolute travesty and those who have loved it for daring to be different. It is not a film that seems to be inspiring much of a middle ground, and its hard to tell yet where the general consensus is going to settle. So, after the read more break, you’re going to get my unfiltered spoiler thoughts. All after one viewing though, so maybe I’ll look back on this after the disc comes out with deep embarrassment. All ready for spoilers?  This week, you can tell the Costa era is going well from him having to do an entire issue explaining how he's not writing the characters badly.
See the Autobot masterplanner learn how to be a better person from... ...erm... US Cops as I look at Spotlight Prowl!  This week, I'm back from Covid (and also worked out I'd misnumbered a few of these), but still very tired so, with no extra introduction:
I look at Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 4! Plus, an Addendum on the other trade extras! Just a very quick note to say that there is not going to be a Revisitation this week, because I've been down with covid.
Thankfully, pretty much all better now, but there's just no chance to catch up and because it's a bloody big dense Nick Roche issue (plus another addendum), it's just easier to write off the entire week. If it had been a Costa, might have tried to slip it in mid-week, but them's the breaks. But, be back next Sunday for all your Last Stand of the Wreckers needs. |
