2D Art Seeds Of Deception - Shockwave/Soundwave, Act 3: "The Enemy Within"

[M3Gr1ml0ck]

Seeds Of Deception presents Shockwave/Soundwave, Act 3: "The Enemy Within".

Art by Tomoko
Story and lettering by Franco.
Stort and project by Peter.
Supervisione di Zac.



But WHO is the enemy within?
The Source, within Cybertron, for Shockwave?
Ratbat, within the Movement, for Soundwave?
Or...

This Act is a continuity hub, with key references to the entire project: from Ratbat and Magnus (who have their own chapters) to Trannis and the origin of the entire Clandestine Movement!

absolute love! fantastic work,
pls keep it coming.
I'd love it if you were doing the comics instead of idw!!

Thank you: I think we can do the stories that we would really enjoy because... well, we don't have to worry about sales ^^

[zuffyprime]

actually I think your stories are FAR superior to IDW.
I read infiltration, escalation etc.. etc... they were TERRIBLE. absolutely nothing happened each comic, and when I finished, I wish I got those hours of my life back. No joke, I get really pumped up when I read your stuff... excellent work man

Wow, those are some pretty good stories, and the artwork is really nice too.

Keep up the good work, you're making Italy proud. ;-)

Thanks again, but now I feel a bit embarrassed... our inspiration stems from the many plot ideas that the -Ation books offered, together with the War Within ones
(Spotlights and Stormbringer are included!)
Maybe the -Ation books just could not make their potential come true because of the big time gaps among each of them.
The Siege Mode bunker alone was enough to inspire us to write a SoD: Metroplex story in five pages that could be called "titanic" ^^

Thank you, and let's not forget Japan: the number of artists from that country is overwhelming!

Great work.
Thought bubbles were what defined comics, you could see and hear what characters were thinking. Now-a-days they are all story boards for movies and missing half the effect!
Beautiful art and engaging story! Thank you for sharing!

We feel the same, and we were also trying to go for the "Spotlight" effect. Like "Spotlight: Shockwave", greatly focused on brilliantly written and balanced captions.

The Omega Supreme chapter (which is a complete, 22 pages Spotlight) is probably the current best example of the results we hope to achieve.

Thank you for reading and for the kind words!
