Summary
The saga of "Target 2006" concludes with a dramatic showdown between Ultra Magnus and Galvatron, who has returned from the future with a powerful weapon designed to destroy Unicron. As the Autobots rally to stop him, Magnus faces off against Galvatron, who has already demonstrated his ruthlessness by defeating the Autobots in previous encounters.
In a tense battle, Magnus manages to evade Galvatron's attacks and attempts to buy time for his allies, Blur, Cup, and Hot Rod, who are working on a plan to thwart Galvatron's ambitions. However, the stakes are high as Galvatron's weapon threatens not only the Autobots but also the future of Cybertron itself.

Show Notes
Did you know that there was a prequel story to Transformers the Movie, published in the Marvel U.K. Transformers comics in 1986!? Target 2006 is an awesome story that teases and builds up to the events of the movie, but would have been something that U.S fans wouldn't even have been aware existed until it was reprinted much later.This is the full story of Target 2006, in which Transformers from the future travel back to 2006 and Autobots on Cybertron begin their major counter offensive against the Decepticons.00:00:50 - Intro00:00:50 - What is Transformers AutoBook Club?00:02:00 - Transformers AutoBook Club intro00:02:36 - Target: 2006 prologue00:26:50 - Target: 2006 part 100:43:15 - Target: 2006 part 200:59:01 - Target: 2006 part 301:15:23 - Target: 2006 part 401:34:55 - Target: 2006 part 501:55:15 - Cybertron: The Middle Years! 01:59:43 - Target: 2006 part 602:20:17 - Target: 2006 part 702:39:16 - Target: 2006 part 802:52:37 - Target: 2006 part 903:14:09 - Target: 2006 epilogue 03:36:32 - Closing thoughts03:38:54 - What's next on Transformers AutoBook Club?03:40:28 - Discord and how to support AFABC

Enjoy and sit tight, the Transformers the Movie comics are coming soon, promise!
