    Optimus, Starscream, Arcee, and Soundwave are written so well in this series. My brain immediately reads their dialog in their original voices its so good. The other characters are good too, especially carly, but most of them have not had much of the spotlight, are still in stasis, or are already dead. I hope this series gets an animated adaptation one day

    6:47 As what the primes said in Revenge of the Fallen. “You have fought with courage and sacrifice, the virtues of a leader… the matrix isn’t found… it is earned.” We may not know how Optimus got the matrix… i think… but the way he became a Prime was the same way he sacrificed the Matrix to save Sam… this could represent how Optimus in a way remembered how and why he was chosen to be a Prime and if that were the, it would hit so damn hard

    Naivety has nothing to do with strength of mind. Optimism has nothing to do with being naive. Optimus Prime is a strong leader who remained able-minded and able-bodied despite the toughest of challenges in his life, that's what makes him so strong. His pure freaking will that constantly drives him to protect himself, his loved ones, and any other allies who help them, including humans.

    I never liked Optimus in the Bayverse, he seemed too serious and unstable especially in combat, this comic gave us an Optimus we haven't seen in a long time, he knew what he did when he accedently stepped on that deer, it took a life that was fragle. I remember when Peter Cullen's made the voice for Optimus he told a story how when he was going to audition for the role his brother Larry gave him advice that helped build the role: "Peter if you're gonna be a hero, be a real hero. Don't be a Hollywood hero with a the BS and the yelling and screaming and trying to be tough. Be strong enough to be gentle." That is what Optimus Prime should be, he is strong but yet he feels like a gentle giant, that should be Optimus Prime.

    I like that they’re revisiting an old Marvel idea, a Transformer merging with an organic and the lines blurring. The stuff with Sparky’s memories mixing with Prime’s is very reminiscent of Scorponok and Zarak becoming one near the end of Marvel’s run. Perfect symbiosis followed by apotheosis. I hope the Headmasters show up.

    Sensational work! You've captured the heart of this new comic series and demonstrated how insightful this new take on Optimus is. He's not young like Animated prime, not rash like Netflix, but his own unique brand of trusting and naive, as you say. He really is a god on this new planet, something that interpretations of Optimus so often lose or fail to capture. I'd love to hear you talk more about the relationship between Transformers and humans in future videos, since this is such a core element of the Transformers world. Some media focuses exclusively on the bots, whereas others delve into the lives they lead once touched by humanity. As the comics continue to explore this side of Prime and as we see more character moments unfold with the other bots (Starscream, Arcee, Cliffjumper etc), I'd love to hear what you have to say! Fantastic work my friend! I'm thoroughly looking forward to more videos!

    They brought back Optimus Prime from the Marvel comics to Skybound \😃/ The noble Optimus Prime is finally back. The way I see this is the only difference between them both is Skybound OP is less experienced than the Marvel version as Optimus statements seems to be only a thousand or so years old. And this is the version readers can truly claim once again even Thor's Mjolnir is not even worthy to be wielded by Optimus Prime.

He had no qualms about killing humans, even ones he’s just met, and, as you’ve said, he was willing to threaten the Dinobots’ lives in order to gain their help. “We are giving you freedom!” He says, while beating them into submission and forcing them to fight for him.

    Real war veterans don't go there ripping faces and telling prisoners to following orders if they don't want to die, Bay Prime is not some tragic tale about a War Veteran, he is a generic action hero, one that is as merciless and as violent as the bad guys, but is the good guy because that is what the script say

    I really like Skybound's run so far. Some things i would've done differently but that's simply a matter of personal preference. One thing i will say is that a lot of classic characters die very early on. Which i think, while effective to show the brutality of this war, can lead to wasting a lot of character potential if it's done too often. But we'll see how it pans out. We're still very early in the story and it can go in a lot of different ways.

    I think the story of Superman provides a clear lens through which we can judge this comic. Kal El is an immigrant to Earth - to America - and he is better for it. In this land of opportunity he takes what is great about his dead people and far exceeds what would ever be possible for him on Krypton. It is an immigration story. Optimus, too, is an immigrant to Earth, but he's responsible for bringing his war to this planet, and he is willing to give his life to protect it. In more somber stories, Optimus ruminates on this; he didn't come to Earth as an immigrant, he crashed here, in a relative utopia, and brought his war to it; he feels responsible for endangering this new world. Skyboung Optimus, on the other hand, has things happen to him. He steps on a deer, but of course deer a nimble and not so easily stepped on by slow moving giant robots. This deer wasn't hiding, wasn't in shock by headlights, or had it's foot caught in a bear trap. It's a magic deer the writers placed there so it might die. The writer, no doubt, wanted to emphasize the size and power of a transformer, and considered having him Frankenstein a little girl, but that settled on it's Bambi's mother equivalent. But he doesn't hit a deer on the road, or step on one of many humans swarming him with guns; he just happens to step on the old deer in God's green Earth to be tripping balls on fermented mushrooms in the middle of an open field with one of a dozen Giant robots from outer space paying too little attention, despite literally talking to similarly sized human beings moments ago. This isn't youth, or naivety, or carelessness, or awe - it's bad writing. Optimus isn't an agent who makes things happen; he reacts like a youtuber stealing someone else's content. "Oh no, a deer, a female deer! And it's been stepped on! How horrible!"

    People don't understand TFP Optimus until they read the lore books,he shut himself down so that he can protect others And nobody knows about Primes they assume. He is the same character from Prime as in Rescue Bots and RB Academy he is shown that he is quite the jokester,social butterfly and is someone who was willing to play Cube with Hotshot,as he promised he would another time,not to mention he retained his seriousness while acting as a mentor figure to the boys and the Burns Family. Alpha Trion, Amalgamous,Liege Maximo, Micronus,Solus, Nexus,Quintus and Thirteen are Primes who can have fun and party as they show they have a sense of humour,even Sentinel enjoyed comedy as he went to the Althihex Casino to watch Armorhide telling jokes

    @@DeltaTrion you may be right but my god like nothing against Jake foushee who voiced him in the show but he did a god awful job at voice it the character thank god he’s not coming back, he try so hard to sound like Peter Cullen and it just did not work out great and same thing for Jon Bailey like I like his sound wave and shockwave voice but his Optimus prime voice is just not it and honestly Peter would be proud of someone trying to imitating his voices because he does the voice better because he’s Peter motherfucking Cullen, the goat.
