Christmas Especial

Description

At Christmastime, a young photographer makes a pilgrimage into the desert to get a shot of a robot. When that robot turns out to be Megatron, things do not go as planned. A story about not getting exactly what you expect for Christmas.

Every year, Marvel's UK Transformers comic would have a Christmas special, in which Optimus Prime or Jetfire or Starscream or some other character would ‘learn the meaning of Christmas’. Christmas Especial is a satirical homage (or perhaps fromage) to that tradition. It is also a modern reinterpretation of Percy Shelley's sonnet ‘Ozymandias’ [link] with an added nod to the Biblical Magi.

Christmas Especial is part of a ‘tenth anniversary’ rerelease of my Transformers fanfiction, spearheaded by Best First. [link]
