TFtember: Transformers#60

"Yesterday's Heroes!" the Transformers#60 (December 1989) with credits to Simon Furman (script), Jose Delbo (pencils), Dave Hunt (inks), Nelson Yomtov (colors), Jim Massara (letters), and Don Daley (editor)


To sum up last issue, Ratchet and Megatron were at ground zero of a massive explosion. This makes Optimus Prime rather put out. 

On Cybertron, the Autobot Pretenders have teamed up with the Micromasters to lead a resistance against the Decepticons. Lord Thunderwing is most annoyed at this point, so he summons the Mayhem Attack Squad (Bludgeon, Octopunch, and Stranglehold) to find the resistance and kill them. 

Optimus, meanwhile, is brooding on the Moon. Hot Rod figures the best to get him out of his funk to program a giant drone to attack the Autobots but let Optimus win in order to build his confidence up. Pity the drone goes berserk for real. 

Oh, and due to a teleporting screw up, the Autobot resistance ends up meeting the Transformer god, Primus. 


Well, that's a heck of a note to end on. Yeah, Optimus ends up getting his groove back, Megatron seemingly dead and yeah, here's god. Can't fault the creatives for coming up with some twists.
