Transformer Title Fights: Tag Team Main Event!

Transformers... more than meets the eye. This, we know. But what happens when the mighty all-spark malfunctions and sends the Michael Bay Monstrosities to wage war against the Autobots and Decepticons of our shared youth? Only you, the cosmically-conscious Comic Mix commenters can conclude! Now cast your votes!

The Main Event: Team Optimus versus Team Megatron!

So, for the past week or so, you fine folks out there have debated and argued in admiration for your favorite G1 Transformers or for the Michael Bay Monsters. But when it came down to this author simply could not make the leader of the Autobots fight himself. And Megatron? Puh-leaze... if given the chance, he'd team up with himself for the opportunity to decimate his red rival. So, without further adieu... let's let the energon fly!

In the Blue and Red Corner, we have our fearless leaders! They are the semi's of superiority! They are the bots with the brains and the brawn! They are the holders of the Matrix! It's Team Optimus Prime! The Generation 1 Blocky Bot comes packed to the gills with firepower. From his trusty sidearm, to his tractor-trailer packed with a powerful turret, Optimus Prime of the G1 Autobots is ready to rumble! Tag teaming with his movie counterpoint, comes his partner, the beefy Semi-cab with a fancy flaming paint job! The movie Optimus is very similar to his G1 counterpart. While he lacks G1's fancy Energon axe, he does come with an articulated mouth. So, he's got that going for him, right?

On the other side of the ring comes a team of pure malevolence. G1 Megatron was always a dastardly foe, who turned into a potent hand gun. Sure, his handgun form was miniscule in comparison to his normal robot size, but then again, G1 Transformers had no problem changing size at will. Packed with his own arm cannon as well an energon mace... the Silver Centurion of Sinister Spite is certain to cause his fair share of slaughter. And who better to wield him in gun mode then... himself! The movie Megatron this time around is a bombastic tank, after he frees himself from the briney deep he was left in, thanks to plucky Sam Witwicky.

It's the battle you've been waiting for. So folks... who takes the crown? Optimus Squared may have the soul, but Mega-Megatron is gonna be pretty pissed. It's a big battlefield out there. I expect the ensuring war to destroy plenty of buildings... but not come near Megan Fox and her pouty lips. Please vote below for your favorite team, and remember...

The future is built on dreams. Hang on to them. And then make sure you voted for your favorite Witwicky, Devastator, Bumblebee, and Soundwave!
