“Alternate This!”
January 2006

Very rarely do I draw canon Transformers characters, and even when I do, I look at what the original artists came up with and go, "No, all wrong!" War World Starscream is a great example of that. I saw him depicted a couple of ways in the comic books, but those were so 80's. Then, other fan artists started drawing him--some of them well, but others just drew Starscream with no feet and put tentacles on his head, making him look like a scallion. He needed an upgrade, something that would strike fear and make him wish he never ate that Matrix.
