Transformers #4: All I can say is..... Ooooooh.

I've said if before (and I'm not alone) but it bears repeating: good on Shane for finally taking Thundercracker to the next level. Before AHM kicked off I remember posting something along the lines of "if he breaks cover, he'll probably be killed or join the Autobots" and not 100% liking either option, so it'll be interesting to see what he's up to now, as evidently he's done neither (if so, good on Mike!)

I think it's all the more satisfying being, what, 60+ issues into the run. Thundercracker going against the Decepticon cause earlier in the run would have been a bit fanwanky to my mind. By now, though, IDWverse Thundercracker has sort of earned it in his own right.

Some people find references to the cartoon cute, I'm not one of them so if it's Daniel Witwicky, I'm going to scream.

No Nefarious as of yet? Well, there goes my theory of 4 Transformers comics every month out the window.
