Transformers Comic in France...

[jonathan85]

So, my parents returned from a recent trip to France with a copy of the French TF comic that's over there. I thought I'd mention it here, in case anyone was interested. It's on smooth paper, is Issue 13, published by Panini and comes in at 55 pages. Bumblebee is on the cover. It contains...

Titan UK Strip - Volume 2, Ish 18 and 19.

14 pages from Megatron Origin.

14 pages from the prequel to the first film.

12 pages from the first issue of All Hail Megatron.

Plus posters of Bumblebee and Shockwave, a couple of pages of puzzles and a two-page spread of fan art.

And it comes with a shooting disc thing, of course...

That's a lot of strip content!

A wacky combination of stories though. How do people make sense of that?

The French get a better deal than us then!

That is a fair amount of content - and arguably a fair stab at something for everyone in terms of style as well.

I stayed in Luxembourg overnight and picked up the same issue at a newsagent in the main railway station. The gun had to go in the rubbish bin at before going through airport security, sadly.

As an addition to jonathan85's comments, it's worth mentioning that it contains 72 pages in total (55 pages of comic strips), appears to be bimonthly (dated Sept/Oct) and costs 3.95 euros (though I was charged 4.50 - the rotters!).

Still better value than the uk comic.

I took a photograph of the cover last month, but managed to misplace the memory card for a few weeks. I've placed it next to the TF Prime comic for comparison.

Les transformateurs - robots dans le déguisement, as Babelfish would say.
