Transformation 181: Be Seeing You.

There's not much to say this week as we get a fine example of why, though they may have their off days, Furman and Budiansky are by far and away the best people to write the comic. Certainly Wreck-Gar shouldn't be allowed to have another go, his script is terrible and lest said about the art he draws the better.

All in my look at Big Broadcast of 2006 Part 2!

A-Z's of the Seacons IS the most exciting sales point!

I wonder if the Mark Clapham on the letters page is the same one who has wrote some Doctor Who novels (one of which Twilight of the Gods has references to Iacon, Witwicky and Liege Maximo).

Is he the same chap who created a Time Lord called Straxus?

Nah, that was Eddie Robson.

Christ, everyone who read this comic has gone on to be a success bar me.

Reading Transformation volume 2 and noticed my theory got a mention in it.

I'm not sure I ever tried writing in. I was definitely published in Roy of the rovers, when I would write complex rebuttals of something daft they had said about Glasgow Celtic. I remember being surprised by how much they edited my letter. I think I got a gift voucher for someplace. Did you get a transformer if you were published in grim grams? As for wreck gar's tache, I thought it was always burning. No?

I believe Sullivan drew Wreck Gars mustache like that, is because one half is snapped off.
And because it looks like a cable, it must be sparking.

I had a letter published in Transformers. I kept hinting that I had but no-one here noticed so you you all missed it! Just as well as it was a thing of horror. I didn't get my free toy for a year as they forgot and my dad had to write back BUT when it did turn up I got a more expensive one than usual and an apology letter on Spider-man headed paper. Marvel UK were a class act.

I read my TF UK comics in trade paperbacks, so I don't have access to the letters page anyway. ;p

For some reason I always think of Wreck-Gar's 'tache burning. Was it on his character model?

I remember sitting down to write a letter for the comic once - it wa around the time of the Carnivac/Fort Max issue, and I was at my gran's house in Wiltshire. God only knows what it was about, but I never finished it in any case. Probably distracted by a spider or a Beano Book or something.

I sent several letters and drawings to transformers although I never saw them published. But one day I received a parcel of several annuals (transformers, action force, visionaries) with a thank you letter from Spider-Man. However the letter was brief, literally a thank you, and my mum and dad weren't quite sure what it was for and held off letting me read them until they'd phoned all are relatives to make sure it wasn't a Christmas present.

Bah, you children and your need for free things when writing to comics...not that I'm jealous, just that I got nothing for having my name in print in Overkill, Comics International, Ghost Rider (Jason Aaron's run) and Astonishing Spider-Man (Pannini Vol 3 - er, I think).


...I was excited about the Seacons profiles in the Annual :O
