Talk:The War Against the Destructons, Chapter 1 of 3

Why is the reference about how the creators have unidentifiable, made-up names invisible now? You can still see it on the Edit screen...--Thylacine 2000 22:56, 6 May 2009 (EDT)

The comicstory template won't recognize a field unless it is written exactly as it is on the approved list. the field was "|Credits=" when it should not have been capitalized. "|credits=" - Starfield 23:02, 6 May 2009 (EDT)

Gone

Looks like the source link has gone bad. I can't find any alternative copies either. :( --abates 17:00, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

Unidentifiable names

Can be identified by looking at who worked on other Blackthorne comics:

• Williams = Alfred Williams - Story
• Fuget = Dante Fuget - Pencils
• Haxo = Philip Haxo - Inks & 3D Separations
• Stephenson = John Stephenson - Editor

The first three are artists. The identity of "Noodles" eludes me, however. --abates 04:56, 7 April 2010 (EDT)

Recollection was that "Noodles" might be the fill-in letterer Peter Iro, as no one else at Blackthorne worked on the project. And not sure why he didn't give full credit to creators...The other 2 installments were written, the second was completed but not published.

It was not specifically part of the Marvel continuity. And yes, we worked on Transformers 3D, number 3 without any direction from the previous creative teams (I'm not sure the issues were completed when we started) I think Blackthorne's thought was that it was primarily a novelty or impulse buy. I think you'll see that the art on issue 3 had much more effort put into it than the first 2 issues...unfortunately financial issues at Blackthorne didn't let us complete the story arc.

New Information

I contacted Dante Fuget, one of the people we had listed to ask if he was involved in the comic. He was and clarified most of the credits: Writer- Alfred Williams Artist- Dante Fuget (he was meant to do the artwork for all three parts) Inker- Phil Haxo (he and Fuget were an art/inker duo) He didn't know who Noodles was.  He also talked about his time at Blackthorne. He was young and trying to break into the comic industry. A combination of demanding rate (having to work long hours, overnighters and multiple days straight to finish pages on deadline) and Blackthorne's financial troubles lead him to leave the industry. He didn't seem sure how far the other issues got in development, which is fair enough it was over 30 years ago. 

I'm not really sure of the best way to put this information into the article.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by WillR113 (talk • contribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.
