wada sez: This is the sequel to yesterday’s strip, never officially released as a Mosaic, but I strongly suspect it was originally intended as one before the project’s cancellation. Jut said: “The origin of the Matrix is a mystery in this universe. And they should be living on the body of Unicron, instead of Cybertron.” See below for clean inks and colors.

wada sez: Whaddaya know, some edgy dreck from Reeves. There’s an even worse one from him coming up in just a few days on this blog, so consider this advance notice to refer to the content warnings on the index page and decide if any might apply to you. Yes, this was seriously intended as a Father’s Day strip. Coming off the back of yesterday’s comic, I think we’ve experienced the full spectrum of Mosaic quality. Clean art below.

wada sez: What do you mean, Christmas was a month ago? The Transformers: Mosaic archive train stops for no holiday. On deviantART, Reeves talked about the strip: “was a really rushed mosaic art wise but luckily we had a great (and super fast) colourist to help improve my rushed line art. and of course, franco's lettering skills are awesome considering there was so much text and such small panels. breast feeding flowers are always funny, as is 'angel bee' and finally we now have an answer to the question on all transfans lips- if prime has an energon axe in the cartoon, what energon weapon does cosmos have hiding behind his hand? an energon spade/trowel!! doubt anybody noticed, but ive got sideswipe beating up sunstreakier like he did in last years 'appreciation' xmas mosaic. sludge is a really annoying character to write about. it's awkward to read his narration when he has such a broken speech pattern, but you can't have him speak normally so trying to find a middle ground was challenging. [...] from the time i thought up the story to the final finished product i think took about a week and a half. never again.” He also shared his original idea for a Christmas strip, which he would’ve done if he “had more time”; I’ve mirrored it below, after Villa’s Italian translation of the strip.
festive mercy
'christmas: late night'
starscream is in a security room at decepticon hq arguing with megatron.
monitors show the decepticon party. various funny images such as laserbeak tied down on a plate like an xmas turkey.
screamer says "you have no right megatron! i deserve to be at the christmas celebration. not stuck on security detail"
megatron says "deserve starscream? you deserve to be stamped down into sub-par decorations for your pitiful performance against prime earlier"
'earlier: christmas afternoon'
outside in the snow prime is beating the shit out of starscream using a huge christmas tree
prime says "you shall not ruin today for the humans starscream. not this day. not christmas day!"
screamer says "mercy prime- i beg of you"
'christmas: early evening'
decepticon hq party. starscream is obviously scared as the decepticons are running around. the decepticons have their head replaced by optimus heads.
thundercracker says "merry xmas starscream"
screamer says "eeep!!"
screamer thinks 'everywhere i look i see his face'
now we see that the decepticons dont have prime heads- its just starscreams imagination. a decepticon is throwing up as others get drunk.
screamer says "er yeah thundercracker. you too."
screamer thinks 'my nerves are shot. i dont know how much longer i can bare this'
megatron is watching starscream shake with fear
megatron thinks 'look at him. the coward. however, when pushed, prime is an intimidating foe.
perhaps his temperary fear is somewhat... understandable?'
starscream is whispering (keep away keep away) as his fellow cons dance around him (imaginary prime heads on the decep bodies).
megatron thinks ' exposing his fear- humiliate him- a truely delicious present for myself.'
decepticons are all cheering "merry christmas!!"
megatron thinks '... and yet...'
megatron says "starscream relieve soundwave in security. the spoils of war are for winners only"
screamer says "th- this is intolerable!! " relieved yet afraid to show it.
megatron says with a smirk "and one more thing- merry xmas you waste of energon"
screamer replies "merry xmas you over sized scraplet"

wada sez: If you’re scratching your head at the continuity for this strip, this comment from Reeves on deviantART might shed some light on the matter: “i havent actually read the 'shattered glass' comics YET so just bsed this on what i could find out from sites like 'wiki' ie rodimus is like starscream, grimlock is a genious and earth (i thought) hadnt been discoered yet. my bad....” The character of “Sgt. Candy” comes from a deleted scene from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. Clean colors below.

wada sez: This is a crossover with the cult sci-fi show Firefly, created by Joss Whedon. Hot Rod appears to be something of a favorite character of Reeves’, which is the only explanation I can offer for his appearance here with a movie-inspired original design. See below for an Italian translation.

wada sez: The golden Megatron is based on how Megatron was colored in Marvel UK’s comics, as a misinterpretation of the chrome shading in his boxart. I’m not sure what the Terminator is doing there; one commenter hypothesised that it might be a reference to the AC/DC song “Big Gun”, written for an Arnold Schawzenegger movie and starring the actor in its music video.
