This collection of three stories centers on the characters we know and love from the IDW Transformers: Beast Wars series with some fun surprises and adventures. Featuring fantastic creative teams and wonderful art from Phillip Johnson, Sam Maggs, David Mariotte, Nick Marino, and more! This annual is a fun glimpse into the Cybertronians' lives outside of their main series adventures.
This was definitely a dud for me.... like it was a big disappointment to me. There is a part of me that wants to harshly say that I dislike. I remember I was even a bit angry because I was so disappointed in the quality of this issue. I really wanted to have a story that has some sort of effect on the story at large. As of me writing this, I don’t think that’ll happen for any of them. One of the only things that I can say is going for this annual is the characterization. The characters are pretty accurate - if you’re using the show as a reference point.
Skold's story was cute, the second story with Rhinox I didn't really care about and I'm blanking on the Morphlings story because I really didn't care about that either.
However, the issue 16 preview at the end? Fantastic.
Cannot wait to see how 15 plays out for us to end up here.
