We have some news!  We did a guest comic for another webcomic artist, George Ford, he is currently on a costal move to California from Virgina.   This will display on his site tomorrow (Friday the 3rd).  It will be here. If you’re hooked into our Twitter and/or Facebook I’ll do my best to remind you.  It’s a crossover with our characters and his, so consider it a bonus comic.

A note about the Gundam reference in the comic if you haven’t seen the real deal check it out, it’s really amazing!

Today’s comic continues our cultist series, ties in with Independence Day, and even opens us up for a review of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.  I’m not going to go into one of my huge long in depth reviews simply because this film doesn’t warrant it.  It is what it is.  If you enjoy watching Michael Bay trying to outdo himself and blow shit up in bigger and better ways you’ll most likely enjoy the movie.  The caveat is  if you are expecting other typical movie elements, such as plot, acting, or plausibility you’re probably not going to enjoy this film.  I can enjoy it on the same level that I enjoyed Shoot Em Up.  I went in for action and Robots punching each other.  There was even bonus Decepticon Trucknutz.  You earned my doll hairs Michael Bay.  I know the fans of our Trucknutz strip are upset we didn’t do a comic about it, but our friend Joel over at Hininks Ensue beat us to the robot junk punch.

Only two things got in the way of my efficient enjoyment of robots punching each other.  One: There’s a point in the movie where Optimus is stabbing a robot larger than himself that’s rolling down the streets of China, while on top of it, awesome right?  Until he bellows: “Pull over!” My eyes rolled so hard it was gangster.  Two: In the end desert fight sequences, all the Decepticons with the exception of like two look exactly like baby Megatrons–I dub them Chrome Shirts.  Iron Hide kills what looks to be the same Decepticon 15 times.  Other than that, robot killing action is had.  I give this sucker a D+ as a film over all.  C+-B- if you curve the grade to just include Michael Bay films.  It’s like watching a grown man play out the  childhood trauma of never being allowed to light fireworks on the 4th–not even a sparkler.  So remember this 4th if you let your child stay safe and sane, odds are he’s going to make a 200 Million Dollar blockbuster with no substance–or a webcomic about a giant robot flipping the bird.  It’s a cointoss really.
