TIM is a schemer and a manipulator, and thus should never be trusted. In time, this will become clear to even everyone who ever fell for his whole "We need you, Shepard." act. What he brought Shepard back for was conquering the Collector homeworld, nothing more, nothing less.

Likewise, his alliance with Aria was also one of convenience (and necessity).

Also, don't count on TIM working for the Reapers. He'd merely be working with them, until the right opportunity presents itself for him to play his cards and overthrow his new machine overlords.

Seems like the source site is down. Did anyone happen to save these pictures?

First off, stop using the word 'retarded' to describe everything. It makes you sound like third grader. A really immature third grader.

Second off, you haven't read this comic and you sure as hell haven't played the game. You have no idea why Cerberus would unleash something on Omega or even if they did it on purpose.

No, they are retarded (oops sorry, dumb), the only justification for serving the reapers is 1. they are indoctrinated or 2. they are reta--dumb. They have certainly gone back on their 'stop the reapers' position in Mass Effect 2. And when an alliance was cemented between Cerberus and Aria in Retribution, this attack on Omega seems silly.

True, RIP ME2 Cerberus.

No, they are no longer Cerberus. BioWare has officially renamed them Team Rocket.

The only possible way you could know either of those things is to actually have played the game and read the book. Until then, you're just pulling guesses out of your ass.

He did have plans to fight the reapers too- it is implied that he brought Shepard back because the reapers know and respect him (and possibly even fear him) and he saw Shepard as a symbol. Shepard was remade for a more long-term goal than simply stopping the collectors. TIM's experiments on Paul Grayson also imply that he was trying to discover more about the reapers- when Grayson escaped TIM was determined to stop him to thwart the reapers' plan.

Actually I know that siding with the reapers is silly because of how it has backfired on any organic who has tried to do so. And Cerberus and Aria are in an alliance as mentioned by Retribution- this is not simply a guess. Looking at how the past comics have turned out I seriously doubt that there will be some deep and clever twist in this one.

People who side with the Reapers generally don't have much choice in the matter, and we still don't even know the complete story - all we know is that Shepard saw some Cerberus guys and said 'they're indoctrinated'. It could be just that particularly group, it could be just a part of Cerberus, he could be completely wrong; there's not nearly enough information to make a reasonable conclusion about anything.

And, again, you don't even know that Cerberus unleashed something on Omega on purpose, or that it was meant for an attack, or what the circumstances were if they did. Just because you can't think of a good reason doesn't mean one doesn't exist, and complaining about it until then is completely pointless.

Actually it's been confirmed that TIM is a major antagonist working with the reapers. It's not just certain cells of Cerberus- it's the entire organisation. So now that we know that all of Cerberus are working with the reapers, it's highly unlikely that the threat to Omega was an accident, it's almost certainly a deliberate attack on an ally.

When was this confirmed?

Watch at around 3:40.

TIM is behind Cerberus's activities and we know that Cerberus are working with the reapers.

Cool gonna have to buy a normandy model once they reach uk shores(probably via forbidden planet), think i'll save the comic till its collected though as i gave up on monthlies years ago when the prices went stupid per issue...you know what would be a perfect collection though? every comic done for mass effect in chronalogical order with a lil timeline pullout that shows where each comic fits into the continuity of the games and novels.

I'm laughing here. Where are the Reapers? How did TIM get promoted for the role of the main antagonist? When did it happen? That's a very backwards way to establish the antagonist, isn't it?

I'm thinking Bioware felt that the fanbase was too apathetic about the Reapers and needed an antagonist for them to draw an emotional response from.

[Kaiser Shepard]

Source is back up! Uploaded the other two pics to tinypic as well, so we're covered.

[Babli]

Mass Effect 1 - foreshadowing of Cerberus
Mass Effect 2 - working for Cerberus
Mass Effect 3 - fighting against Cerberus.
ME books (except first) - Cerberus
ME comics - Cerberus

...and there are some Reapers by the way.

All books, all comics were centered about Cerberus. Its just so...meh. Why...nvm, I never bought ME comics and never will.

It does somewhat resemble an elcor, although it's possible it's a mix of things, perhaps an elcor/rachni (that crest looks like the crest that is visible on the rachni brood warriors). Saying that, its limbs seem to be thinner than an elcor's broad limbs.

It's just the comic.

[Paulinius]

Although past performance is not always indicative of future results, I am not very pleased that the same writers from the horrible Evolution comic are the ones that are writing Invasion.

Hopefully, they learned from their past mistakes.

[Leonia]

Well this is news to me so thanks OP for informing us!

Can't wait to see some more of Aria, figured we'd be seeing Omega again after Retribution anyway.

As for the Normandy replica, note how they say it's an exact replica of the ship from ME3. Might be a typo, or perhaps the ship only looks like that at the beginning of Mass 3, but here's to hoping we can keep flying under Cerberus' flag.

Isn't the ME3 Alliance painted SR-2 due out around the same time?

http://biowarestore....dy-ship-replica

Guess we can buy two versions of the same model?

In the demos it is already in Alliance colors.

thanks for the link assuming their store lets me buy something this time i might have the replica i wanted.

 You people don't get it...


My friends, I present you





Prothy the Prothean!  

[Kaiser Shepard]

And apparently there are cards now as well... here's to hoping Joker will actually be on the Joker cards.

Credits to roflchoppaz from the 'rival' topic.

[roflchoppaz]

Oh hey, I didn't see this topic.

Np, I'm amazed you guys didn't see the cards, hah.

[goofyomnivore]

It has the ME1 Prothean's face tentacles. Interesting.
