La batalla continúa a tantas bandas que es increíble que Daniel Warren Johnson no haga que ninguna importe menos. Incluso la osada decisión de que el recuperado Ultra Magnus tenga un potente estrés post traumático y se encuentre auto protegiéndose aislándose de sus camaradas, aporta a un marco general que es cierto que ya exige la participación total de la parte del universo Energon concretada en los G.I. Joe ante la escalada de devastación planetaria por parte de las fuerzas Decepticons en su particular guerra interna.

Just binged all 17 issues of this series! Ok this series was everything I heard about it and more! I loved this version of the Transformers, it was so brutal, so rough, and so emotional. The arc that Optimus has been going on in this story is outstanding, also the fact he’s currently strapped with Megatrons arm! Like that is so cool! I love this story and so glad I’m caught up now to keep up with the Transformers!

It is really sad to see the current state of Ultra Magnus. His body may have been restored, but something remains broken inside the Autobot stalwart.

Skybound introduces its first original Transformer, designed by Daniel Warren Johnson, Shredhead!

Improve your reading experience by having the original soundtrack of the 1986 Transformers movie playing in the background.

I’ve never been a big Transformers fan, and I’m mostly still reading this for DWJ and now Jorge Corona, too, but damn this is such a heartbreaker from issue to issue. This is quietly a devastating book about the perils and tragedy of war, wrapped up in giant robots fighting.

Excellent last page reveals like this one is what makes me want to come back for more and more of these robots and their robot problems and conflicts.

Transformers continues to fire on all cylinders, the art and writing is flawless and continues to the the most enjoyable book I’m picking up.

This issue of Transformers continues to be more than meets the eye with some fanservice moments and the new character reveal at the end.
