From that I'd agree with Shlomo that ROM #0's going to be a flip-book with two separate stories. *However*, there IS a future crossover of the two characters already in the works, which seems to have them facing a familiar foe...??? Scroll down on this page: http://yastagram.com/u/johnroyleart/ (I think this is also our first good look at the IDW Neutralizer?) It looks like I'll have infinitely more fun checking out this kind of crossover, or Micronauts!Micronauts!Micronauts!, than the (?)inevitable(?) IDW ROM cameos on or in a My Little Pony comic...Gary Martin, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11385338936431036524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178894507761299440.post-43057598536072974922016-03-25T00:38:31.938-07:002016-03-25T00:38:31.938-07:00Action Man into Rom zero issue and Rom into G.I.JO...Action Man into Rom zero issue and Rom into G.I.JOE films? It all seems rather unreal but i'm guessing that action man bit is some kind of separate back story. Anyways, I'm trying not to think about the IDW Rom reboot in case you may not have noticed from my recent postings. Right now I'm just think of the advanced tickets and reserved seating my wife and I have for Batman vs Superman saturday night. And then there's the Avengers Civil War trailer with SpiderMan at the end of it! I'm hoping I kinda forget about FCBD until the day of and just wander down to my LCS and find myself pleasantly surprised with the Rom zero issue. Not that I'm holding my breath for that.Shlomo Ben Hungstienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238927958290618109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178894507761299440.post-49100467646880371822016-03-24T21:08:32.971-07:002016-03-24T21:08:32.971-07:00So apparently Action Man, a character from Hasbro&...So apparently Action Man, a character from Hasbro's toy franchise of the same name, is going to show up in ROM #0 (He is also getting a comic spotlight but thats not the point)<br /><br />http://www.bleedingcool.com/2016/03/22/the-new-idw-hasbro-action-man-comic-gets-a-spotlight-in-june/<br /><br />Character crossovers are nothing new to comics, and certainly not to ROM, but still, it seems really early to be inserting characters from other storylines. Its not even issue #1 yet... <br /><br />Im just worried they will over-integrate ROM into other stuff, like Hasbro will do when they try and put ROM into GI Joe films...<br /><br />Marvel (usually) let ROM do his own thing and incidentally have some heroes help him out with some wraiths and such.Massinissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471590221506269451noreply@blogger.com
