an observation on MTMTE 56

You know, I haven't read the IDW books in some time. I dropped all but MTMTE a bit before the end of Combiner Wars, and MTMTE lasted ... a few months more? Maybe almost half a year? Long enough that I generally don't comment on recent comics events except with a few friends when tidbits pass by, because hey, I'm not reading them.

This time I heard a tidbit that actually had me look for the issue to see for myself. And, yeah, I'm not hugely impressed with this.

Without spoilers, and without going into too much detail, I'll say that I could have lived without a character/plot thread that is that much of a send-up of current American politics. (The guy is even orange-ish.) Especially since I'm not even American.

Come on, Roberts, you could do better than this once.
