Robots in Disguise issue 14 is hitting comic stores this coming Wednesday, though if you just can’t wait for more Transformers comic goodness, it’s already been released early on iBooks.

Well considering how the fandom pretty much hates Bee's guts and how the comics are made for fans…yeah
Anguirus
Actually I have to agree, IDW Bee IS unlikable. And that's the WORST way you could ever handle Bumblebee.
Prowl however went from "nobody" to "insanely awesome." (Speaking of IDW in general, not necessarily what's going on here. I'm not commenting on that cause I read this terrific issue early.)

"Creative freedom for some, re-issues for others!"
And the crowds rejoiced.

1984 just can stop being stupid, now can he? The cartoon sucked balls, with a few epsodes that did not. The comic was way better.
Akumaxv
LMFAO!
Is this guy serious?
On another note, I'm at a loss for what Prowl is doing and what his endgame might be. RID is turning out to be pretty damn awesome. Even with Arcee in it.
Starscream Gaga
I'm sorry… What? Prowl is the best part of RiD!
And seriously… TWO episodes? Are you joking?
Napalm
Don't even try reasoning with 1984forever.
He's literally on 95% of the boards blocked list, seems to exist on a purely antagonistic level and most of his comments are akin to watching a lone Heathcliff repeatedly smash his head into a tree, howling primal vengeance at the sky.

NO WHEELJACK !!!!!
He spoke !!! Prowl`s gonna frickin kill him !!!!

Wrong. Much like most other characters, it was the Sunbow cartoon that got the voice wrong. Please try again.

without obviously not knowing what is going on, is Prowl actually playing the Decepticons and this is one big plan to put the Autobots into total control of Cybertron. Or is Prowl just a giant douche who is evil

The only cold logical Prowl I remember is early Marvel G1 where Prowl loses patience with Bluestreak in one issue, and dresses down Mirage in the next. Prowl's correct voice is that of Sunbow Prowl where he was portrayed as a strategist in 2 episodes of the Ultimate Doom. Prowl devised a plan to rescue Sparkplug and he advised Prime during a battle… all without being a dick. Not only did IDW get the voices wrong, they've also managed to make characters like Prowl and Bumblebee unlikeable in a franchise where many fans like the Decepticons as much as the Autobots.

PBR has been around since 1844. Plenty of people drank it before people started calling kids "Hipsters".
Also, Prowl is a douche.

What voice did Prowl EVER have in G1? In the cartoon he served as a soundboard for 80s Optimus Prime's John Wayne droll (and just as capable of casual speech patterns as the rest of the 80's cast). His modular copy, Bluestreak, had a bigger role (that's how we met Chip). In the Marvel US comics, Prowl was background fodder, seeing more time in a pale blue paint job than in his police black and white. Prowl's big moment in G1 Marvel…promoting Grimlock (whom Deservedly should have met his demise at the hands of Blaster during their gladiatorial mano a mano on the moon) to Autobot leader…so much for logic.
Prowl as the overtly logical archetype has largely existed via Marvel and Dreamwave character bios and played no part in any of Prowl's further incarnations until after twenty three years later, in Transformers Animated. The Cold, Logical Prowl you mistakenly believe existed since 1984 (amazing how nostalgia distorts memory) is solely an IDW creation.

"Welcome to the black room, Bee".
Prowl is acting like he's working the door at a hot nightclub, it's awful. IDW can't seem to get these characters voices right.

PBR…I would have thought better of Wheeljack. Goddamned hipster.
unhappybludgeon
Prowl has just reached a whole new realm of sketchiness. By faking the deaths of a litany of Decepticons, he have just become MORE shady than them.
soymonk
Ouch. I feel bad for poor Swindle.
I have this bad feeling that Wheeljack won't make it through the issue, based on his incomplete sentence and wording in the last page of that teaser.
WoundSave
Nice alty, though given all the smoke you could add a cigarette or joint in jackys hand there
Altitron

I bet Megatron's new body will be like his fall of Cybertron design
