Includes artificial grape flavoring.
Notes
[edit]- For his Transformers #13 cover above, Mattina has clearly used generative AI to create his "artwork". In the history of the Transformers brand we've seen some pretty lackluster things here and there, but given his history of art plagiarism and controversy with DC Comics[1], this is a new low.
