I didn't realize FO's "General Atomics" was based on an actual company. I thought it was just a clever example of FO's 1950's aesthetic.

That entry isn't up-to-date, there's been a second chapter. I really like the premise, although I'm concerned that the writer's starting to overcomplicate it.Ancient History wrote:http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon ... _as_Yamcha

The fact that Laserbeak is the Kingmaker... makes me think of how the role of Decepticon leader seems a lot more like a mythic figure of a religious pantheon. Comics tend to skew towards the cartoon and mythic I guess.Ancient History wrote:http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticon_Matrix
