Day 13
In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favourite interview, a book) and explain why you love it so much.
This is easy. My favourite transformers storyline of all time is the events between Ratchet and Megatron. They started in the Marvel comics issue #7 (26 in the UK series) when Ratchet first took on Megatron and the "Rite of Oneness" was performed and they were bound together ever since. That story, and the future confrontations, just resonated with me. I loved every bit of it and it's been reflected in my writing of Ratchet. Megatron too, for that matter. After all, how can you not love an ongoing plot where a medic is the only person to actively take out the warlord that even Prime hasn't been able to take out successfully? Then, in the last attempt, the two of them were literally bonded together and couldn't be fully separated! Basically, they were bonded. Sadly the comics never did anything more with this, though FunPub did try to finish the story with things like a splashpage featuring Ratchet's deactivated body in Megatron's room and a later story about how Ratchet finally was released from Decepticon captivity.
As I said, I love the interaction, I love the characters, and I love the possibilities of the whole concept.
