"Epic
final encore!"
Hi all !
Arriving
somewhre in the past, the final TRANSFORMERS PRIME issue of the Titan series of
Transformers
comics !
Now let's
go to the Issue! Slighty bigger because of enhanced outer cover'
Page 00:
cover consist of (archive ?) PRIME art of Starscream, and his 'minion'! Free
toy is a "Bumblebee
blasterter
!" again..... far from original since it's still another variant of the
disc shooter/blaster
weapon, but
that may change in the future ! You load the projectile into Bumblebee´s
stomach and then
launch the
little ball by pushing the lever on his back.

"Starscream´s
Beast"
Script:
Chris Cooper Art: Andres Ponce Lettering: Comicraft
Who ?
Andres Ponce is a penciler and inker for Mirage Studios TMNT, Noble Cause and
Firebirds from Image,
TMNT:Fast
Forward and Star Wars from Titan Publishing (UK), Bankshot Comics. (actually
started with issue
4.19 but I
did not review that one.....)
Starscream
is miffed with the Predacon Beast complaining that he gets no respect, so he
decides to build
his own
Beast ! The beast looks very similar to Generation One Tantrum, part of the
Predaking combiner.
Starscream
then can't seem to control him and not even the Insecticon drones can stop him
when he
declares: I
am a Supreme Beast and you have been judged unworthy. The sentence is
destruction !
.....to be continued on page 20 Great art by Ponce.

Part 2 of the strip! SPOILERS !
After a
small standof between Starscream and Tantrum, Starscream tricks him into
oblivion. Meanwhile
Predaking
has sensed his kin which makes Megatron suspicious. Megatron finds the wreckage
and questions
Starscream.
Starscream simply, with the aid of his cctv skills, tricks a decepticon drone
into oblivion !
After that
he continues plotting......
What a
rushed and crap ending.

Conclusion:
Dissapointing
Comic strip scriptwise, art was better than last time! Too bad the strip didn't
live up to
my
standards.
score: 5.7 out of 10
