"When I give this trade 4 stars, that isn't to signify it's one of the best comics I've ever read. What it does say, though, is that for what this is it's hella fun.
Being an 80's baby I have a built in fondness for some franchises, Transformers chief among them, so this being a completely new (string free) series based on the original incarnation of the Transformers was right up my alley. The story is the same Transformers story we always get, but it was really well done. It was enjoyable enough to get me to read further into the series.
I have to say, I am a complete sucker for when the big boys (Optimus Prime and Megatron), are given the proper weight. I know the whole premise of the Transformers is completely silly, but when you get into this franchise you know that those are "the guys". The Autobots and Decepticons are going to fight forever, but the battles are always decided by Prime and MEgatron. This trade did well in getting that across. So bonus points to you IDW."
"A new comic series based on the G1 (that's Generation 1, or the original Transformers) robots, this first volume of IDW's "Transformers" line is really cool. Awesome artwork and great storytelling combine to make this a fun read. Yes, there are some changes in character design, but they're minimal and, for the most part, good changes. The robot forms look just like we remember from the 80s."
