Stargate Defiance


This is fan-art inspired by a sequence in IDW's Transformers: Defiance mini-series. In issue 2 on page 4 there is a Decepticon sigil on the inside of an ancient Egyptian pyramid. Being the big Stargate fan that I am, I can not see anything Egyptian without thinking of Stargate and this image popped into my mind.

"Stargate Defiance" features SG-1 stepping through a Stargate, blissfully unaware of an unfriendly "greeting party." I guess the MALP didn't see them behind the gate. :laughing:

The two Transformers are, of course, '07 movie Megatron and "Protoform" (ie Cybertron mode) Starscream. Starscream is based on his appearence in IDW's comics rather than the toy design. From what I understand, IDW based "Cybertron Starscream" on early head designs, before the toy's ultimate design had been approved.

"Stargate Defiance" was inspired by a comic by Dan Khanna and Andrew Griffith based on a script by Chris Mowry. See the main inspiration page on Andrew's dA account.

I dunno man, I think Stargate and the Movie continuity seem mutually exclusive. Stargate and the G1 continuity, however, could work.

Nice attention to detail there though, having Jack with his hand on the butt of his rifle. I probably wouldn't have though to include that if I had drawn something like this.

Awesome! I love Team Oblivious strolling through the Gate even though every single time they do something goes wrong...you think they would have figured it out by now.

I know I've seen that before, 'cause I know I've read through Lil'formers before, but I had forgotten about that one. :laughing: You reminded me to look at the last couple of weeks of strips too. The Sideswipe one of May 18th is pretty good. :D

How are they mutually exclusive? They are both live action, both feature secret military organizations, and they are both sci-fi action. Need more elaboration on exclusivity. :)

Thanks for noticing the details! I had noticed that Jack would rest his hands on his gun when waiting for Carter or Jackson to finish figuring out or explaining something. :bored: You also might notice that the chevrons on the gate are all in the correct order (if the reference I was looking at was accurate and I didn't mess-up).
