@Jo god, I wish the original show wasn’t racist as hell

@casta Yeah, watching it after reading the IDW comics was a lesson in cringe.

And I said to someone else earlier, a white rich dude running a hi-tech secret vigilante force is going to raise a lot of questions, which makes the changes IDW made all the better.

(It could have done without referencing the cartoon every issue, though)

@Jo is it worth picking up the IDW series? I have a bit of it somewhere from one of the Transformers Humble Bundles, but getting to a point where I feel ready to tackle Revolution is a challenge. Nostalgia sent me to rewatch the original on its announcement, and...yeah.

@casta I enjoyed it, but I think it really needed to run longer than it got to.
