It’s our first episode covering the acclaimed IDW Transformers series, More Than Meets the Eye, by James Roberts. We discuss the core cast, pacing difficulties, horror movie monsters, Star Trek away missions, the Worst Decepticons in the World and what Ben believes to be the book’s greatest triumph.
For those wanting to read and/or watch along, next week’s episode covers Revenge of the Fallen and the week after will be MTMTE Issues 9-16 and the MTMTE 2012 Annual.
The Podcast now has a Twitter account, @MALTMTE, where you can find a thread of character images and mini-bios for those who have never read or are struggling to keep track of names/faces. Or leave some positive feedback/tell us how bad our Transformers opinions are, whatever you think is healthy, really!
Invaluable Transformers resources include TFWiki, The Basics by Chris McFeely and The Whole Plate by Lindsay Ellis
Outro Music: ‘This Is Why We Fight’ (The Decemberists Cover) – Saskia Parks
