Colin gets a bit too big for his boots.

Synopsis

Colin and Steve plan to take the day off to celebrate the 300th issue of Transformers, but outside the Combat Shed many of their enemies have joined forces and are about to launch a joint attack. Fortunately, Colin is not caught unaware and he takes them all out with a giant boxing glove on a spring, which leads him to boast that after such an easy victory he should boot out the Transformers and take over the whole comic. The arrival of a ticked-off Blaster quickly dissuades him of that notion.

(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)

  • Combat Colin (1)

Notes

  • Once again the fourth wall takes some stick, with Colin seemingly fully aware that he's a character in a comic strip.
  • The villains' ringleader Amazing Dave appeared in the previous Transformers-relevant strip in his alter ego of Mountain Man.
  • Notably absent from the line-up of recurring villains is Aunt Arctic, presumably because she got freakin' eaten alive by T. rexes in issue 280!
