I love the feel for Starscream DWJ has, but hover-round Starscream is an abomination.

[Adelaide Metzger · Rating 5 out of 5]

Finished 11/13/24 - "You shall be my hand of death."

Oh...My...GOD!!! Oh, my poor Ulchtar, my beloved Starscream, how evil twisted your innocence and used you just breaks my heart! I would have gladly devoured and reread a whole, entire series about Starscream's backstory written by Johnson and illustrated by Jason Howard, but, sadly, Hasbro/Skybound/Image has only given Johnson 2 issues--oh, how he expertly tells so much in the limited space he is given. I also loved the story in the present with the team of military humans who find Starscream (I laughed and gasped in horror out loud several times).

Issues 13 and 14 will be favorites on my shelf for a very long time.

MAN this series is good. Squish.

I hope they keep the artist around because I think it's really funny.

Pues al final, Jason Howard viene para ilustrar este par de números que reinsertan a Starscream a la trama. Y en verdad resulta un acierto porque su estilo más "cartoonish" clásico se aprovecha por parte de DWJ para apelar a las series animadas de la franquicia con ideas "de bombero" como ese "arreglo" que podría haber dado en su día para un nuevo juguete. Pero que aquí se busca no solo justificar su absurdo, si no también no mermar esa psicopatía innata de este villano del que este comic ya ha demostrado que gusta de que llene viñetas de color rojo y gritos agónicos de frágiles humanos bajo sus extremidades robóticas.

Sí que me extraña que la implicación del Universo G.I.Joe siga llegando a pasos tan tibios.

Issues 13 and 14 basically comprise a two-part Starscream spotlight arc. From his lowest point, to being reduced to mobility on a HISS tank, he survives and thrives. He gets to have his Decepticon faction again and woe be to Soundwave.

The entire two-parter is sprinkled with flashback scenes exploring his pre-war years and fateful encounter with the one who will eventually mold him into a weapon, while being held as a weapon himself, Megatron. Got to love the irony.

Who knew Starscream was such a fan of good art. Enjoyable read with some funny moments, some dark moments, and some relatable moments.

Those MARS folks are kind of idiots, huh?

[Dennis Brock · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Energon Universe does not disappoint! 4/5

[ComicBookCult Luke · Rating 5 out of 5]

DWJ and team continue to knock it out the park completely. This book is the Transformers I’ve craved and now it’s finally happening I couldn’t be happier.

[Luc Forsyth · Rating 3 out of 5]

liked this one more !! pacing is grand and the death toll of each issue remains lovely and high

[Derrick Garcia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Starscream is DIABOLICAL!

After growing up when Transformers were first introduced, I really had not expected such a bloody comic.
