Talk:Bludgeon (G1)
I culled* this entire article from the Titan Books comic reprint.
- And by Culled, I mean plagerized
So... patronize them, I guess.
Mettalikato
Is there any more information on this? I tried does some web searching but all I found was one lonely fanfic. My eyes! The Google does nothing!
Seems likely to me that it's named after Kato, Bruce Lee's character from The Green Hornet. And of course it coincidentally sounds like the Metallikats from Swat Kats, if anybody cares about that. - GW
- Metallikato. Voila! --ItsWalky 16:19, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
IDW Bludgeon's appearance
I'm just curious, was an explanation ever given in regards to Bludgeon's rather... unique battle-damage look in the Stormbringer series? Considering no one else in the series had damage of that extent, it just strikes me as odd. Did anyone ever give a reason for his damaged appearance? -Detour 19:17, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
- Hard to say, but he was shown with the damage just after Shockwave's disappearance on prehistoric Earth, so he's been carrying the wounds around for some time. I'd say at the least he's avoided repairing it, and it's possibly self-inflicted.--Rosicrucian 20:59, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
Main pic
I know it's "wacky" and lets us make a heavy metal joke but I really do think that main pick is horribly ugly. I cringe every time I come across this page. There must be a good pic of Bludgeon out there somewhere. --ZacWilliam 22:00, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
- I think it's a very representative picture for Bludgeon just like Grimlock's and Shockwave's. --TX55 06:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Character Model
Has anyone got a pic of this character model? I'm interested in seeing it. --Detour 02:36, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- As the trivia section says, we only see Jose Delbo's copying of it in Yesterday's Heroes. Look at the second image in the fiction section. There it is. --ItsWalky 02:47, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- Oh. Bummer. I was hoping there was another one floating about. Who knows, maybe those The Ark guys will dig it out for their second book... --Detour 03:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Earthforce
The UK material that is currently written happened BEFORE the Earthforce split. I'm moving it back. --ItsWalky 05:33, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- That doesn't make sense. It all ends with Bludgeon & co being captured by Earthforce and then escaping from their base. --Detour 06:32, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- Earthforce doesn't happen until Earthforce itself is introduced. Before that issue, everything works fine, continuity-wise, and there are plenty of normal continuity/UK black and white crossovers. "Cry Wolf!" (#272) and beyond don't happen for over 30 issues after Catilla is killed (#239), so there's also a time gap that helps make that a good separation point. --ItsWalky 15:12, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
- In regards to issue numbers, I'm at fault here, I just have the pages saved sequentially with no issue number so I wouldn't have known. And what I have is probably some colored reprint since everything is in color (if you want, I can replace that Bludgeon killing Catilla image with a color one when I get home) and at the end of my #239, it says "NEXT: Cry Wolf!"... So you'll have to forgive me for being in the dark. But hey, conflicting ideas aside, between the two of us, we managed to flesh out Bludgeon's page pretty well, wouldn't you say? --74.57.3.251 20:46, 10 March 2008 (UTC) (Detour at work)
- Goddamn Furman and his goddamn Earthforce. Maybe next time, you wanna make sure you're not putting the info twice in one page, though, since I'd already added the events from "Cry Wolf!" up to "Shut Up!" in the regular UK continuity. --Detour 06:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
