Armada – The REAL Story

Here we go, the minicomic that started a horrific slide of internet memes, got into the margins of comics, conventions and even Hasbro itself. I even got a wiki page out of it! (check that out here - JaAm.) Fanart, kitbashes, crikey. What did I do?

Bizarrely, the actual comic itself isn’t that good. I think it just tapped into some sort of collective fear about how horrifically awful this new Transformer series looked. Thank goodness we were wrong about that, eh?

Eh?

Anyway, I present to you the original edited Armada minicomic back in its proper home. Often copied, never bettered!
