i love the part where Elita one gets at Arcee for what happened to ultra magnus, and Arcee literally gives her a fist to the face. she well deserved that and more
Honestly Prime seeing Sparky's memories makes complete sense. The Matrix has the collective wisdom of the primes and in many different iterations of the matrix, it holds their sparks and memories. Sparky merged with the Matrix, refueling it with his own wisdom and sacrificing himself in the process. Now that Sparky is merged with the Matrix, Optimus would start seeing his memories. Now this could be more of a side effect of Sparky beinf a human considering this doesn't happen with Cybertronians who merge with the Matrix.
This is truly a gem in the Transformers franchise, a beautifully somber and intense story with one of the best characterizations of Optimus Prime, exploring more of his character while staying true to him.
I really don’t get why it seems every new writer now tries to make her a dislikable character who only causes problems. Elita One should be a capable leader just like Optimus but more emotionally driven, not in a stupid way, kind of like in the G1 cartoon. I think it would be cool if maybe she could be shown as an actually decent leader who could be a potential fill in if Optimus is out of commission or busy with something else.
I feel like Sparky's sacrifice was not just for filler purposes or fix a plot hole. The Matrix is powered by wisdom, which Sparky has from his Vietnam experiences. These are sufficient to fill the Matrix. The scene pays good respects to Sparky, and Optimus similarly would've done the same in his position.
@@dabbzgaming wisdom isn't about time or matching Prime's, every person's wisdom and experiences are powerful, it was clear that Optimus and Sparky were able to bond over the similar experiences they shared and positions they hold in the lives of those around them, we'll likely see how much the way in which Sparky affects Prime in the future most likelu

I think or guessing that the author is having difficult time writing the autobots cast getting more screen time in the comics or character development and probably saving the other autobots team for the next comic
One thing I like about Skybound is how the Transformers are more fragile than in other media, even though they are made of a resistant material, they get seriously hurt or lose limbs with a shot or a strong punch, look at the case of Optimus, the poor guy just suffered from beginning to end hahaha.
I got a side with Alita, one if you are an Autobot and you have been fighting on Cybertron for millions of years and you are part of the Autobots that got left behind. You're going to hold some hard feelings towards Optimus, primarily for the fact that they have done nothing for a long time because they were offline. So I can understand why Aalita wouldn't give a shit about Earth
I love the underlying tone of desperation in the series. Everybody's running on fumes, dealing with tons of slag, and hurt for all parties involved. Meanwhile Cobra Commander is vibing with energon, Duke is holding himself back from slugging Hawk in the face, Scarlet's off being an IRL ninja Red Sonja, Destro is making bank, and Cobra-la is off to give Cybertron yet another thing to worry about.
My theory on optimus primes arm i think its like the symbiote spiderman story prime gets addicted to the arm and the arm eventually liquidates and turns into a venom like structure whoch infuses with dark energo. Giving us nemesis prime and after that megatron digs up a grave of a orime and gets himself another am optimus and Megatron have to team up to defeat this nemises prime
maybe? I hope they dont go in that direction in like the Nemesis Prime way, but more so that the Fusion Cannon is more representative of the inner conflict within Optimus of what the violence and power he holds, and what he should be doing with said power.
@@grimm6338 Amazon has both vol 1 and 2 digitally. I know websites online you can have them shipped to you but it’s always best to support your local comic/game shop and buy them there :)
So to me this series looks like it runs off a version of G1 logic where as long as you have the resources, you can rebuild any cybertronian PROVIDED there's still enough body left to do so So I don't think most of the deaths here (aside from like Reflector he's fucked lol) are permanent, but rather the lack of resources available to both sides is what causes the stakes to be so high
Im trying to get into transformers more. Was originally into star wars, but that sucks now because Disney sucks... But ye... Im trying to learn a bunch more about transformers. I know about the Decepticon Turmoil, and hes my favorite transformer so far... Don't ask why, he just cool to me lol.

@@lex_rodriguez it might just be because people were expecting her to be different. Also due to the fact of her earlier interaction with Arcee being pretty negative and leaving behind both Jazz and Cliff. Basically a mixture of her giving off bad impression to several readers led to the hate towards her actions about draining Earth for Cybertron.
she has had to endure a lot of shit, as all of our characters have. I think this series thus far has been about the manner in which characters deal with trauma, its the consistent through line through all Major characters say for Shockwave, and how each character is almost represents different aspects of the cycles of grief, Elita kinda fits into the denial, anger, and bargaining stages, Optimus feels hes sitting at the depression/acceptance stages, he feels that heavy burden of surviving, Cliff at the acceptance stage, both of human characters Carley and Spike going through it, and I think thats whats making this series so interesting imo.

Havnt been commenting recently, but these videos have been really cool. Keep it up man🔥🙏

I just saw a meme about cliffjumper being the first to die everytime, and I said " he hasn't shown up yet in the video" 16:55 he apears
For once people mistook bumblebee for cliffjumper instead of the other way around
@FroggoFreg cliffchumper s always been my 2nd favorite tied with prime, tied in first is bee and Sqweeks 3rd is the fallen and magatron
So glad you compiled all these videos man!
I love the shotgun Jazz has, imagine seeing him use this in Transformers one
Correct. It was Skywarp activated first in the show.
I want to see a movie or tv series based on skybound
Is Optimus turning into...
Liquid Ocelot?!?
Man i REALLY want more, im consuming this at a rapid state the heck
