Fiction

[edit]

Marvel The Transformers comics

[edit]
NTV appeared exclusively in the UK portion of the Marvel Comics continuity.

On an NTV news bulletin, a female anchor informed viewers that due to heavy rains a landslide was threatening Pullen Power Plant, and the area had to be evacuated. She was unaware that Optimus Prime had assigned the Protectobots to guard it against Decepticon opportunism. The Special Teams Have Arrived

"THE PUBLIC IS HUNGRY FOR HANG GLIDING!"

NTV was (superlatively) covering the Mt Fuji Foothills Hang Gliding Competition Tournament when the Decepticon Blood attacked it. Blood was showing off his skills for the newly arrived Godmasters Hydra and Buster by attacking hang gliders in mid-air with precision strikes.

NTV got great footage. Super Warriors - The Godmaster Brothers

Notes

[edit]
  • Obviously, these two news channels were created independent of one another, but for convenience, they are both listed here.
  • The Japanese NTV channel was the original broadcaster for nearly all of the Japanese Generation 1 Transformers shows, hence it being featured in Masterforce.
