  1. Energon Universe - ongoing Transformers and G.I. Joe comics from Skybound

    Wish they had a design for Makeshift's main form instead of just veiled in shadows behind everyone else.
  2. Climate change (because it's still political for some reason)

    The current ruling coalition there (Nationals/ACT/New Zealand First) are all right-wing.
  3. Transformers: Age of the Primes Thread: ll First Post All Listings II Update : April 12th, 2027 Bonus Wave: Repaint fun, Beast Wars, G2, Machine Wars

    I think the only original mold we know of for these two waves is Swindle. I think possibly New Prime and Unicron Soldier are remolds or recolors from existing leader molds from Legacy or AotP given so much of the Voys/Deluxes from these two waves are PRs or simple new remolds/recolors of...
  4. Energon Universe - ongoing Transformers and G.I. Joe comics from Skybound

    They are talking about the first issue having over 200000 orders already, which is largely due to blind bags (the comic book equivalent of lootboxes with speculators trying to pulled desired variant covers by buying multiple copies). Though the ethics of this particular sales practice is...
  5. Iran. Nuff said.

    It's like the utra-orthodox Jews segment don't want to serve because their whole raison d'etre are their intense interest in religious studies, which apparently the state of Israel still supports. It also doesn't help that their education isn't too great since it's mostly centered on religious...
  6. Now eventually you are going to have a Comic Book thread on this Comic Book forum, right?

    Dark Horse management is well known for being complicit in covering for know sexual harrasser and abuser Scott Allie who was an editor at DH (he edited Hellboy). They had a rep for straight out firing editorial staff who wanted to have Scott Allie removed though to their "credit", they took...
  7. Iran. Nuff said.

    I don't think getting a moderate as Supreme Leader was ever in the cards. Khamenei's son was always in contention to become Supreme Leader and take over for his father especially since one of his main rivals the late President of Iran died in a helicopter accident in 2024.
  8. Energon Universe - ongoing Transformers and G.I. Joe comics from Skybound

    Robert Kirkman hasn’t exactly proven himself when it comes to handling characters inside big corporate owned franchise universes with multiple creators. His stint on Ultimate X-Men usually brought up as the example where he made a hash of everything.
  9. Iran. Nuff said.

    They likely used AI LLMs for target selection in the war against Iran. https://archive.is/HELuu
  10. Energon Universe - ongoing Transformers and G.I. Joe comics from Skybound

    This shouldn't even be spoilered. This "twist" was telegraphed 20 issues ago. It's just Kirkman took his jolly time stating it directly to the reader.
  11. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    Technically the justices only interpret law and policies. There's no real mechanism in the constitution for enforcing their rulings, which are entirely dependent on current political norms that are fast going away . And judicial review itself was a later development by the Supreme Court under...
  12. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    The space theme really printed money so much so that they continued with it with Lost Galaxy despite the Japanese show they took the footage from not having a space theme at all.
  13. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I am aware of his comments. I'm just pointing out that you need to take it in the context of the stuff he did on Clone Wars with Filoni. Clone Wars was if anything a stepping stone to his ideas for the sequel trilogy especially the Darth Maul stuff that we know would be setup for the situation...
  14. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I think it's closer to the ideas that he utilized in Clone Wars. For example his ideas with the midichlorians and the whills have analogues or precursors to stuff in The Clone Wars show like: -the force planet as the origin of life/midichlorians that we saw in the Yoda Arc in TCW with the Force...
  15. The Toku Thread

    First female transforming Space Sheriff. Hopefully she does better than the last gold plated Space Sheriff who's doing time for selling out the organization.
