One of the main things that always bothered me about the Marvel comic run was the introductions of Human characters in a issue and then after that issue we never heard from them again. This issue was one example the “Roadjammers” ! They would have been a interesting group to have come back from time to time and get in the way of some Autobots mission or interfere with some Decepticon plan. Maybe they would help the Autobots from time to time or something too. Or better yet they form some kind of Alliance with the Neo-Knights or even work with I.I.I or RAAT. ( If you can remember who they are). But we have to put them along side Jake Dalrymple , Charlene , Carissa Carr , The Mechanic , and the Spackehikers. ( See if you can remember who all those are!)
As you mentioned I like the idea of the Nebulans who had come to Earth starting a big corporation and doing all kinds of things with it to support the (in this case) Decepticon cause. It was sad that we never saw anything come from this. Though this does make me think of Ratbat’s mind control of G.B Blackrock and using the “Wash and Roll” stations to hypnotize humans in to taking the fuel from their cars.
To me it seemed like a clever idea mostly for the fact that the Autobots might not notice the Decepticons using humans in such a everyday activity. If they attacked a Oil Refinery and took control of it , it a little more noticeable.
Here is a question off that, Do you think the Nebulans who worked with the Autobots could have done something like this to help the Autobots for the sake of them getting energy to refuel and such? I mean it would be easier for the Autobots and they wouldn’t exactly be stealing or anything like that. Though the Autobots did have a deal with G.B. Blackrock for a while until RAAT caught on to it and basically setup traps for them So they option went out the window.
