On Phobos (a moon of [[Mars]]) [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]] are posing in front of their new [[Decepticon]] friends. A very unimpressed [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] tells the twins he needs their ''full'' attention during the mission briefing. The former Autobots explain they are risk-taking, free spirited mavericks, not stifled boring grunts (er, no offense guys, stop growling at us [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]]!), and retrieving "some throwback" for "re-educating" is hardly a biggie. Soundwave tells them to just go and warns them not to fail him.

Soundwave tells them to just go and warns them not to fail him.  


The twins leave for [[Earth]]. [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] and [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]] express their distrust and annoyance with the two, but Soundwave explains to them that Skids and Mudflap are merely bait for their target, a dangerous soldier who has survived countless years on Earth. Grindor and Sideways will be waiting to take over once the target is drawn out... and if the twins survive, to ''rectify'' that...

On [[Earth]], Skids and Mudflap bomb down the [[North Carolina]] countryside and Skids asks Mudflap if he thinks the Decepticons bought their traitor act. (Mudflap only now learns it ''was'' an act) Skids' plan is simple: the Decepticons will send someone to keep an eye on their first mission, so all they have to do is capture whoever their shadow is and present him to the [[Autobot]]s. That should prove they were framed! While Mudflap doubts this, they zero in on their target, hiding in a barn. And that target... reveals himself to be [[Ransack (ROTF)|Ransack]]! And he's pissed off to see them!

[[NEST]] Regional Command in [[Wyoming]] picks up the battle, and it is quickly confirmed that the "two rogues" are present. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] demands immediate transport for him and [[Sideswipe (ROTF)|Sideswipe]].

Back at the farm, Ransack is livid to find out the twins don't remember his name. However, Skids cuts the fight short by revealing they'd switched sides, something Ransack knows [[Jetfire (ROTF)|has precedent]]. When the Seeker retorts that he won't give his information to Soundwave's lot and talks only to [[the Fallen]], the twins quickly lie that the Fallen personally sent them and is currently incapacitated. Ransack, having waited so long to come in from the cold, falls for the ruse and heads off with them.

Grindor and Sideways, watching the three, can barely believe that the twins have succeeded by talking instead of shooting. That sets an example they won't stand for! They start their attack run, Grindor blasting Ransack out of the sky while Sideways aims for the twins. Skids takes on the flier, and sends Mudflap after Sideways, both of them hoping to gain "a ''scalp''" for the Autobots. Mudflap swiftly defeats the 'con car, playing chicken and forcing Sideways to swerve into a tree. While Grindor is able to return fire, Skids can dodge his attacks and aims for the rotors!

===Errors===


* Mudflap uses the American English spelling for "offence". This is [[Transformers Comic issue 2.2#Errors|not the first time]] Furman has undermined the nation's English teachers.
* Grindor's rotor is missing in robot mode.
* When Skids and Mudflap are diving near the barn, the roads change.

* As well as Grindor being the wrong colour again, Ransack ''changes his entire colour scheme'' in robot mode.  
* As well as Grindor being the wrong colour again, Ransack ''changes his entire colour scheme'' in robot mode.
 
* Grindor and Sideways are WAY too small compared to the twins.


===Notes===
===Notes===


* Ransack says he hasn't heard from the Fallen in a long time. This could be an error, as he was shooting at the twins in #2 and said he was under orders from the Fallen, but this may be cleared up next issue. (Considering the Fallen has been talking with Starscream and Soundwave, he's a right dick if he ''has'' just been leaving Ransack in the cold!)
* Ransack says he hasn't heard from the Fallen in a long time. This could be an error, as he was shooting at the twins in #2 and said he was under orders from the Fallen, but (as he knows Soundwave) he probably was given orders through Soundwave.
* Soundwave is after Seeker knowledge [[Transformers Comic issue 2.3|again]]. Ransack, for his part, seems to recognise no Decepticon command outside the Fallen.
* Soundwave is after Seeker knowledge [[Transformers Comic issue 2.3|again]]. Ransack, for his part, seems to recognise no Decepticon command outside the Fallen; since the Decepticon generals ''can'' contact the Fallen, why doesn't Soundwave just bring in Ransack normally and set up a conference call? Why ''ever'' would a high-ranking Decepticon want to know the location of supremely powerful artifacts if not to tell his leader...?
* Mudflap is unknowingly ''right'', the Fallen ''is'' currently incapacitated!
* The Fallen ''is'' currently incapacitated and the Decepticons know it (see [[Transformers Comic issue 2.8|#8]]), but it appears Mudflap just made a lucky guess.
* In car form, Sideways can fire guns and Mudflap can raise a small forcefield.
* Sideways ends the story defeated and lying in full view of Autobot forces. He's not shown or spoken of in the next issue, however, and obviously he's got to be free to appear in [[Shanghai]] later. We know the twins just changed their minds and left him, but as far as we can tell NEST did too!

Hang with the Twins? Grindor and Sideways get all the dirty jobs...

Turnabout

[edit]

On Phobos (a moon of Mars) Skids and Mudflap are posing in front of their new Decepticon friends. A very unimpressed Soundwave tells the twins he needs their full attention during the mission briefing. The former Autobots explain they are risk-taking, free spirited mavericks, not stifled boring grunts (er, no offence guys, stop growling at us Ravage!), and retrieving "some throwback" for "re-educating" is hardly a biggie. Soundwave tells them to just go and warns them not to fail him.

The twins leave for Earth. Grindor and Sideways express their distrust and annoyance with the two, but Soundwave explains to them that Skids and Mudflap are merely bait for their target, a dangerous soldier who has survived countless years on Earth. Grindor and Sideways will be waiting to take over once the target is drawn out... and if the twins survive, to rectify that...

On Earth, Skids and Mudflap bomb down the North Carolina countryside and Skids asks Mudflap if he thinks the Decepticons bought their traitor act. (Mudflap only now learns it was an act.) Skids' plan is simple: the Decepticons will send someone to keep an eye on their first mission, so all they have to do is capture whoever their shadow is and present him to the Autobots. That should prove they were framed! While Mudflap doubts this, they zero in on their target, hiding in a barn. And that target... reveals himself to be Ransack! And he's pissed off to see them!

NEST Regional Command in Wyoming picks up the battle, and it is quickly confirmed that the "two rogues" are present. Ironhide demands immediate transport for him and Sideswipe.

Back at the farm, Ransack is livid to find out the twins don't remember his name. However, Skids cuts the fight short by revealing they'd switched sides, something Ransack knows has precedent. When the Seeker retorts that he won't give his information to Soundwave's lot and talks only to the Fallen, the twins quickly lie that the Fallen personally sent them and is currently incapacitated. Ransack, having waited so long to come in from the cold, falls for the ruse and heads off with them.

Grindor and Sideways, watching the three, can barely believe that the twins have succeeded by talking instead of shooting. That sets an example they won't stand for! They start their attack run, Grindor blasting Ransack out of the sky while Sideways aims for the twins. Skids takes on the flier, and sends Mudflap after Sideways, both of them hoping to gain "a scalp" for the Autobots. Mudflap swiftly defeats the 'con car, playing chicken and forcing Sideways to swerve into a tree. While Grindor is able to return fire, Skids can dodge his attacks and aims for the rotors!

Up above, a NEST carrier plane watches the whole thing. While they're unable to land, Ironhide is determined to keep an eye on this situation, while Sideswipe notes with confusion that the twins are fighting the very 'cons they 'aided and abetted'.

Grindor finally decides enough is enough, and carries on with his primary mission: snatching the wounded Ransack and fleeing. The twins have successfully downed Sideways, but Skids (spotting NEST's plane) wants more. He's tired of being on the receiving end... he's going to right back to Soundwave and bring this conspiracy crashing down!

To Be Concluded...

Quotes

[edit]

"Who's bad?"
"We're bad?"

–Skids and Mudflap upon joining the Decepticons


"Just... Go. Fail me... and you will see just how creative I can be!"

–Soundwave


"Do you think they bought it? Our 'defection'?"
"Oh, it's an act?"
"Of course it's an act! Give me strength! Did you really think we'd sign up with the scuzzball Decepticons?"
"Well..."

–Skids and Mudflap


"Rummage?"
"Pillage?"
"Ransack!"

–Skids and Mudflap trying to remember who the bot they're shooting at is


Errors

[edit]
  • Mudflap uses the American English spelling for "offence". This is not the first time Furman has undermined the nation's English teachers.
  • Grindor's rotor is missing in robot mode.
  • When Skids and Mudflap are diving near the barn, the roads change.
  • As well as Grindor being the wrong colour again, Ransack changes his entire colour scheme in robot mode.
  • Grindor and Sideways are WAY too small compared to the twins.

Notes

[edit]
  • Ransack says he hasn't heard from the Fallen in a long time. This could be an error, as he was shooting at the twins in #2 and said he was under orders from the Fallen, but (as he knows Soundwave) he probably was given orders through Soundwave.
  • Soundwave is after Seeker knowledge again. Ransack, for his part, seems to recognise no Decepticon command outside the Fallen; since the Decepticon generals can contact the Fallen, why doesn't Soundwave just bring in Ransack normally and set up a conference call? Why ever would a high-ranking Decepticon want to know the location of supremely powerful artifacts if not to tell his leader...?
  • The Fallen is currently incapacitated and the Decepticons know it (see #8), but it appears Mudflap just made a lucky guess.
  • In car form, Sideways can fire guns and Mudflap can raise a small forcefield.
  • Sideways ends the story defeated and lying in full view of Autobot forces. He's not shown or spoken of in the next issue, however, and obviously he's got to be free to appear in Shanghai later. We know the twins just changed their minds and left him, but as far as we can tell NEST did too!

Law and Disorder

[edit]

"So 'Cade, it seems a large number of Human's celebrate an event called "Christmas" at this time of year. They gather together, exchange presents and no one shoots anyone."
"The only thing we'll be exchanging is insults, you moronic Autobot! As for "not shooting" - "ceasefire" isn't in my vocabulary!"
"That's a shame. I have a present here for you. It's not from me, I wouldn't douse you in coolant is you were on fire; it's from Ratchet. He said it was the diplomatic thing to do, whatever that means."
"What is it? What did Ratchet send me? Give me the Christmas present!"
"OK. It's this fist-shaped object in the cardboard box on the end of my arm. Can you see it? No? You need to take a closer look..."

—Ironhide and Barricade start off their usual way.


"Ah, I remember being four. Assembling my first high yield plasma accelerator, and being told off for hanging around near the primary heat exchangers in downtown Tyger Pax."

—Ironhide


"Will it ever end? Why do I have to endure more pictures of this yellow cretin?"

—Barricade


"Urgh, it's one of those pedantic historical types. To be honest, Rich, you'd be better off discussing this with Ratchet, or Prime, or someone who cares."

—IDW on Continuum Ironhide on continuity quibbles


"We'd love to see more of this sort of thing - people in costumes ..."
"And if any of you dress up as Autobots I'll be forced to pay you a visit! Anyone caught being sympathetic to the enemy cause will be shipped to Cybertron for hard labour - scrubbing the iron barnacles from between the folds of the Fallen's armour with a wire brush. Enjoy."
"I've met toasters more intimidating than you, Barricade. Seriously, dress up as whoever you want, kids, just send pictures!"

Starscream's stars

[edit]

"VIRGO (23 AUG - 22 SEPT): Stand by for a hilarious series of misadventures involving a blocked sink, a troop of Baboons, several packets of boil-in-the-bag cod fillets, an F-22 Raptor and a book about flowers."


"LIBRA (23 SEPT - 23 OCT): Remember: always meet your problems head on. Unless your problem is Devastator. In which case, face them moving away very fast in the other direction."


"SCORPONOK (24 OCT - 21 NOV): It's true that it's always the winners that write history, but it's the losers that do the TRANSFORMERS Wikipedia entry."


"AIRES (21 MAR - 19 APR): With Mars aligning with Necro the Dead Planet, armies of nanobot-driven Zombie lawnmowers will attack. But any problems can be solved with a simple phonecall."

Notes

[edit]
  • Rather nifty cover gimmick: there's a hole cut in the cover so it looks like Optimus has shot through Starscream. The top also sticks further up, to better show you can win! Devastator (which is a pain to scan!).
  • Animated fanart of Bumblebee can be seen on page 47; the legend lives on. Barricade doesn't like it, though, because it's of a Bumblebee.
  • Finally the letter page refers to the Star Prize as "Law and Disorder Star Prize", not Starscream's star prize.
  • Yes. Starscream just insulted us all.
