Description
TRANSFORMERS: SEEDS OF DECEPTIONTHE MAGNIFICENT SAGA
SHORT STORIES: "POISONED CHALICE"
Story by Franco Villa
Art by Lau
Project and model sheets by Peter Istyle
Edits by Zac DeBoard
The complete saga is available in PDF format, featuring bonus art and secret files: Magnificent Crisis - PDF collected edition
NOTES
This piece is a sequel to The Artifacts .
The story continues in Magnificent Crisis .
Special guests in panel 4: Solonicum Prime (only part of his body), Monstructor, Sixshot, Galvatron, Nemesis/Nova Prime.
See the panel without lettering .
The Age Of The Ember is another reference to Solonicum Prime and the Constant Moons saga; you may remember both these names from Paradise Lost .
This is our Last "Seeds of Deception" story.
Not because we're not going to produce any more of them, but because after this our universe and our story-lines end: the Magnificence rewrites (reboots) everything, overlapping existing realities with new events/characters/interactions.
There's still the slim chance that another universe can be born out of this cosmic event, though.
Will this subplot ever see the light? It could happen, but we would like to focus on the past and tell more stories from the Age Of Sentinel Prime: Ratbat, Jetfire/Grimlock, Trannis, Blaster... and of course more of Magnus, Sentinel, Starscream, Shockwave/Soundwave, Omega Supreme.
And there's more of the possible future story-lines in Short Story: Far From Home .
The idea and the "poisoned chalice" concept came from a certain interview released by a certain writer
The answer to the Magnificence is the Unity Sceptre, not shown in this story but featured in this
Rodimus Prime art . What do Roimus and the Sceptre have to do with the impeding Magnificent Crisis?

D'oh! Maybe after some years reading comics... it's heavy sci-fi, with quantum physics concepts

But we've given him the opportunity to redeem himself. And you can bet he will, in the 11-pages story "Magnificent Crisis"

Looking forward to it!

Bene bene, mi sono intanto letta The Artifacts e questa, quell'appunto sull'ultima vignetta mi aveva incuriosita.
Bravissimi davvero tutti voi dello staff! L'uso di quell'artefatto, in effetti, potrebbe spiegare molte cose 
La famosa vignetta Γ¨ geniale! XD
Massì, resettiamo tutto, tanto i lettori sono idioti e non se ne accorgeranno mai! Grrr... O_o

E ancora grazie! Ormai la Magnificenza Γ¨ la nostra ancora di salvezza: chi l'avrebbe detto che Furman giΓ aveva gettato le basi per aiutarci in tempi di tale sconforto?
La sua intervista sembrava fatta apposta per scrivere questa storia "velenosa".
Il seguito sarΓ di 10-11 pagine. I disegni sono pronti e il colorista Γ¨ al lavoro su pagina 3. SarΓ epico! (Speriamo).

Furman Γ¨ veramente geniale! Mi dirigeresti all'intervista, se si trova online? A questo punto sono curiosa di leggerla
Tutto ciΓ² nell'attesa dell'epico seguito!

Ehm. Non la trovo piΓΉ sul mio hard drive.
In teoria Γ¨ tra quelle pubblicate e tradutte sul sito delle Cronache (sezione Archivio). CercherΓ² meglio ^^'

Don't worry, ho trovato l'archivio. Adesso me le scarico e me le leggo tutte. Eheh

Oh, wow, I love that concept! It sure would explain a lot. And the final panel... it just made me laugh. Great job, there.

Thanks!
It seems that certain events can only be faced with irony
And it was amazing how the Magnificence was described by the Guru as the double edged sword we needed for this short story ^^

Indeed. I'm still really curious about what Furman had in mind towards the Magnificance. I guess we'll never know. I couldn't blame him for keeping the idea close to his vest in case he ever gets to write for the G1-verse again.
Wouldn't it be fitting if it altered the user's personality, turning them into utterly idiotic douchebags like Costa seems to think "Rodimus" is?

It seems that the effect is contagious and spreads fast, affecting the whole cast

Oh, don't worry... he'll get out well even if "diminished"

Man, that would explain why the sudden switches from the "athon" series to "all hail Megatron" and why Hot Rod became a wuss LOL.

The effect of the Magnificence is trans-chronal: the explanation works even in the flashback or in the stories completely set in the past

You had be worried there for a while. I thought after the first few pages it was going to contain some moronic anti-technology message.
Instead this looks like it's going to be a damn good comic

Thanks!
And technology is not bad per itself... it's just how the Decepticons use it!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo, you did it like in the last Star Trek Movie!!!
...AND the prequels are not even finished yet! O__Γ²
π: 0 β©: 1
No, we did not. :3
There's no time travel, no senseless destruction of the entire Romulan empire just because ONE planet is wept away, no miners who are more clever than all the generals in the universe and...
there's more than meets the eye to this event

LOL!!!
this makes me far more curious... ^^

It would require a very bold and daring artist

And again, thanks: we're honored!

Great interpretation for Magnificence!!
so this is the true reason why everyone act so strange from time to time in IDW universe(s)
And I think I love this Macabre.

Thank you, we're really glad this story is so well received!

Nice work on incorporating the Magnificence with why everything flew out the window there with IDW.
Also, Macabre looks, well, macabre!
π: 0 β©: 1
LOL, yes: Peter and Lau did a gret job with him!
Best part about the Magnificence is that we got the idea from the Guru himself!
π: 0 β©: 0
I said it before and I'll say it again: masterpiece!
Macabre is plain awesome, BTW.
π: 0 β©: 1
ah I see,trying to make sense of the inconsistencies made between the ation series and the ahm series,leave it to idw to make a headache,rather then let simon furman do his thing
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, we just wish Macabre had some idea to fix things and bring Furman back
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah seriously,guy is king,and things in idw's verse are a mess enough toi keep track of
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, Simon and Don are the best and Nick is their moral heir. He's brilliant in everything he writes/draws... even his interviews are like a novel!
π: 0 β©: 1
that they certainly are and s'right he is,and no doubt about that,I mean I've heard nothing but good things about last stand of the wreckers
π: 0 β©: 1
It's an excellent miniseries, yes. We're going to try and incorporate most of the historical details it gave, like the Six-Phasers concept, or even the "new" Impactor
π: 0 β©: 1
that it is,esp. its use of chars who've never been in any other media,like ironfist,the predators,and of course overlord(whose character nick roche made a great run with,based that cameo in megatron origin)and ah coolios,the infiltration protocol was a great con tactic and ah yes,impactor,the bot who went too far

When i was going over the script, it seemed...longer somehow. I still get a kick out of the last two lines!
π: 0 β©: 1
It's crammed, yes.
And we love the last panel
π: 0 β©: 0
Yes, yes, holy slag yes.
Magnificence = Continuity Fragger.
Awesome, awesome, awesome.
