They left the story without an end just like Valiant and their Unity 2000! Transformers deserved better with the Bay movies still making bank throughout the Dreamwave era.

Bayformers was about 3 years away after the last Energon issue came out, but totally reminds me of poor Unity 2000.

Dreamwave then totally blew it. If they stuck it out instead of stiffing artists, they'd be able to afford fuel for their shiny sports car.

Okay, I have this obsessive need to know WHY their Transformers mostly all left the majority of the pages uninked!

Well, you'll see as this continues, it devolves into pencils only. So I can only imagine that while the standard Dreamwave process was to only do partial inks (mostly on the main figures) and let the colorist handle the majority of the penciled backgrounds, that this is starting to give an indicator that the creatives were becoming aware of the pending bankruptcy. With less checks coming in, or at all, the entire process started to break down. Or perhaps pages were only partially inked when the word finally dropped and work was ceased then and there.

Oh! That's really interesting. I naturally was thinking it was related to some sort of production related issue. So, aside from the later issues devolving into "pencils only", have you also seen that the pages from the time period before things started going bad were fully inked?

Not fully. But I would say more 80/20 than 40/60.

Almost feels like a template perfect for an art student to tackle the rest of the inking as a skill building excercise! unfinished/unresolved stories aside, it's cool that the art is out there!
