Samurai Pizza Bots

According to CWCipedia, the Samurai Pizza Bots are a cadre of Transformers who protect the city of CWCville from enemy attack. Since they have only now shown up in the partially-completed issue nine, one wonders why the hell these giant combat robots haven't been helping Christian and Sonichu not get their heads kicked in by a variety of implausible super-villains.

The Who, Now?

Apparently, the streets of CWCville are patrolled by a handful of Autobots whose cover job is that of pizza delivery. One of their number turns into a samurai robot. This seems justification enough to call them the Samurai Pizza Bots, which in no way resembles an obscure kid's cartoon of the mid-90s.

There are four members of the Samurai Pizza Bots: Son-Chu, Chris's own Transformer; Excelina, a motorcycle with a blatantly obvious hologram "rider;" Bumble-Lumba the possibly-retarded Bumblebee ripoff; Armoraxe, the armored, axe-wielding vehicle named for his charming wit and propensity for wisecracks; and Prower, the samurai motorcycle thingey owned by Punchy Sonichu and ridden brazenly like a man-pony at an S'n'M club. Once again, these vehicles--a Ford Escort, two motorcycles of unknown make, a Scion xB, and an '09 Camaro--are used to deliver for a local pizzeria, are adorned with a logo that integrates the Autobot symbol, and are seen in association with the local team of superpowered whackjobs. Given that the whole idea behind Transformer altmodes is to make money off of licensing be discreet, it might be safe to assume that the Autobots use CWCville as a dumping ground for Autobots too stupid to live. Given that retarded robot dinosaurs and blatantly offensive racist caricatures are active members, that's saying something.

The Absent Robomen

Let me guess, at this point you're wondering where the hell they've been since the beginning of the comic. That's a damn good question, and given that Chris seems to imply the SPB have been around for some time, it's one that really should be answered. Were the Autobots new in town, perhaps to help hold the line while Mayor Mary Sue was buggering off in the Time Void, that might be reasonable (as reasonable as yet another intellectual property coming to town would be). As-is, it seems that the Samurai Pizza Bots have been too busy doing their cover jobs correctly to indulge the petty desires of an autistic man-child, waiting until the enemies they're supposed to be fighting show up.

...Hmmm, maybe they're not that bad after all.
