Dinobot Hunt! Part 3.

![]() This week Furman cheerfully gives us a variant on all those episodes of '80's action shows set on a cattle ranch as Jetfire looses his badge and Soundwave auditions for the remake of Treasure Island. All as I look at: Dinobot Hunt! Part 3.

I liked this issue, I thought it contained plenty of action (massively important when you're a little kid reading about his favourite toys); featured some mildly sinister undertones with the Decepticons still being a credible threat under Soundwave, and actually utilising disparate members of his forces unlike Megatron, who would invariably employ the latest toy release to attack Prime or the Ark, or Shockwave would only use himself.

I'm not sure you're allowed different opinions from me. :0

This issue/cover has stuck in my head enough that over the years, when I see/hear the name Jetfire I think of him grappling with Slag.

Westerns. You’re right; they aren’t interesting to most people our age (people who grew up in the 1980s) but you just couldn’t avoid them. While the popularity of Western movies and TV shows had faded by the 1980s, the topic still showed up regularly, and every science fiction show invariably had to do at least one Western-themed episode. And even when there was no overtly Western content, a ton of those “A-Team” and “Knight Rider” episodes still took place out in the countryside or a boring desert.
