We talk about the road to issue #50, the MTMTE writing process, and whether or not the Decepticon Justice Division is all it’s cracked up to be.

Wow this should be pretty darn good, and sorta a follow up to the tf con from Chicago from last year,I just wish the whole cast could have been there,as I’m sure yakko would/has wish to as well (you did the right thing),then the circle would have been complete.but I’m glad he meet Yoshi and got to hang with him and all,so that’s pretty cool…
I wonder if Roberts will elude/give clues on upcoming events….
Hmmmm….and I wonder what else the cast has in store for us too…?
This interview was bloody brilliant and entertaining. It was also great hanging out with you guys. It was an honor to be aboard. Much love!
We are all glad to have finally met you Jimmerz. You filled in like a pro and where a huge help. We are the ones who should be thanking you sir.
Did I catch that we get Scavengers in season 3!? I could rewind, but that is not as much fun.
This interview was fascinating. I’m with you, Yoshi, I’d love to pick his brain on process and understand how he comes up with all these brilliant plot lines and keeps all these details straight. I’m picturing the scene from a Beautiful Mind with the string and pictures all over the walls.
Cannot wait for the confrontation between Tarn and Megs. Especially if this goes down on the Lost Light. Really loved the conversation about the characterization of the DJD and my girl Nickel… I feel like this will be dinnertime conversation with Jimmerz tonight.
The next time you guys have James Roberts in a room, please do not let him leave until he agrees to write Towards Peace. Please and thank you.
