Darren Jamieson

Darren Jamieson is a British Transformers fan who wrote a fanfic comic called The Beast Within. Sadly, Hasbro UK approved the comic and allowed Metrodome to include it with its Season 2 Part 2 DVD set of the Generation 1 cartoon.

Jamieson also operates the UK-centric Transformers fansite TheTransformers.net.

So you like your stories, comics and movies to be explained to you before you begin. You like what is termed as an 'info dump' so that you have all of the facts laid out before you at the outset, rather than be tasked with working things out as the story unfolds. You like 'by the numbers' story telling. Luckily, you're in the minority.Darren Jamieson explaining why writing an incoherent story is supposed to be a "challenge" for intelligent readers, "Anyone afraid of the Dinobot combiner?", TFW2005, September 2009.

Trivia

• According to Jamieson, one of the reasons why The Beast Within was less coherent than All Hail Megatron was space limitations. Because there's no way to tell standalone stories with a very limited page number.
