[Blade Raider]

-Hey look, a fight between characters from the same franchise, how novel.

-I think in one panel, a part of Thundercracker's flight stand can still be seen.

-The code name for X-Brawn is X-B because I realized that one of the forum characters was named Agent X.

-Random grunts that aren't bad guys doing the fun random grunt thing I love so much. I still have one of these figures because he's the driver to the R.O.C.C. being stolen and that is one of my 2 favorite GI Joe vehicles.

-So I guess I did add a little more on GI Joe in the main comic. I forgot I name dropped Mr. Saxon here. If you know what that name is a reference to, you are correct.

-So I have Jack Sparrow and Yoda stealing from GI Joe. This is some of the stuff I missed from TAOWAR. This wouldn't have happen naturally in ATTF's one comic one story format. This happens because it moves the plot forward.

-Yes, I am totally ripping off the first Pirates movie here and that's part of the fun.

-Final Round: TO THE DEATH! Yeah, this is a joke fight.

-I sort of wish I kept the Action Shovel around. Imagine the Shovel Knight jokes I could make. The umbrella comes back later, but I don't think the shovel does.

-Who yelled to kill him anyways? I like to think it was me. Not Blade, me, the writer.

-Lore time. I didn't know much about Go-Bots, not the origin story or anything, so I made something up that fit in the universe. Normally I like to transplant fiction as cleanly as possible, but here I decided to do something else because I wasn't familiar.

-Also, while I'm on the subject of in universe changes to fiction, Transformers have all already downscaled after the war ended in the 90's. That's basically the Maximal and Predacon upgrade, but without the name change (Maximals and Predacons exist as different factions). None of this is in the comic, just my behind the scenes logic.

-So Go-Bots are the term for Transformer actors in TAOWAR and also Transformers from Gobotron, which is just a colony of Cybertron.

-One thing I will mention here is that in universe, Shortround is a Go-Bot in that he's an actor. It's talked about in his profile. I have decided that those profiles will be posted once I know they won't have spoilers in them. Shortround's profile was my favorite of them, by the way.

-The destruction of Gobotron is something from a story line that I will probably never make, but I will leave the hints of it in just in case never becomes today.

-I just now noticed Blade's scabbard is not the normal one. I forgot I used this one.

-"Caribbean Crawdad" is my favorite wrong Desert Claw name. That honestly sounds like something Desert Claw's brother would be named...hmm...note the self.

Tomorrow: Lots of fighting as we end this little side arc.
