Bah Weep Granagh Weep Nini Bong! Welcome to this week's episode of Transformers AutoBook club, a weekly video and podcast series where we read and deep dive into one issue or story per week from Marvel's Transformers comics! We're staying in the U.K. this week, for the penultimate story in our little run of U.K. comics, "Dinobot Hunt!" This one is great, there are teams, tactics, planning, logistics, it really makes the Autobot/Decepticon war feel the most like a war I think we've seen it, certainly in the comics. It expands on the Dinobots and their abilities, and all in all feels like we're seeing the beginning of the U.K stories starting to head toward being more sophisticated. 0:00 - 5:14 - Greetings, intro and...

A three part U.K. story this week with multiple writers and artists!

I've got a real doozy for you this week, this story is just bizarre and full of bonkers decisions. It's a Christmas story, which is a bit unseasonable, given that this episode is coming out on April 1st 2026, but because it's so closely linked to the events of recent issues, it really only makes sense to cover this story now. I will say though, it might make a reappearance in December 2026 because of how much it made me laugh, I had so much fun reading this absolute nonsense. 00:00 - 02:37 - Greetings, some good personal news! 02:37 - 27:45 - "Christmas BreakER!" 27:45 - 28:20 - Closing thoughts 28:20 - 29:56 - Outro, how to support the show, socials etc. If you enjoyed this episode, you can help support the show by joining the Patreon at www.patreon.com/transformersautobookclub Make sure to come hang out with us in the discord here: https://discord.gg/tesXYhArrh To hear about other comics I've been reading, find me on Bluesky here: https://bsky.app/profile/clarioncomicsjp.bsky.social Or you can email me at transformersautobookclub@gmail.com And if you really want to help the show out, give it a review on your podcast platform share it with all your nerdy Transformers friends!

Bah Weep Granagh Weep Nini Bong! We're back in merry ol' England again this week for a solo episode covering the two part Marvel U.K. Transformers story, "Decepticon Dam-Busters!" This one is the closest to anything in the G1 cartoon we've seen from the comics so far, so close in fact that several shots and lines of dialogue are identical. Ratchet explains to the Dinobots why humans are so fearful of the Autobots, despite the fact that they only try to help the humans, by telling the story of a Decepticon attack on a dam. At the end of his story, a painful surprise awaits for Swoop, Josie Beller's plans are revealed, and so is the next move G.B. Blackrock plans to make. 00:00 - 02:55 - Greetings and plans 02:55 - 13:15 - Cover and U.K. comics free posters 13:15 - 46:41 - "Decepticon Dam-Busters!" 46:41 - 47:26 - Outro, how to support the show, socials etc. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to come hang out with us in the discord here: https://discord.gg/tesXYhArrh To hear about other comics I've been reading or volunteer to be on the show, find me on Bluesky here: https://bsky.app/profile/clarioncomicsjp.bsky.social Or you can email me at transformersautobookclub@gmail.com And if you really want to help the show out, give it a thumbs up, subscribe and share it with all your nerdy Transformers friends!
