A strong second outing that proves that this new take on Transformers isn't just a flash in the pan fad, it's a legitimate take made of sterner stuff.

Another heartfelt issue that manages to remind us why we should always adore the kind of hero that's gentle and strong of character.

A massive win for fans new and old that draws this re-introduction to a close by showing us why Green Arrow is a character that will always come back well rested and better than ever.

A wonderful tribute that gathers some of the biggest names in Sonic comics history.

Johnson's story is really getting it up into high gear with some of the most intense robot action I've seen in a western comic.

A lore dense story update that brings more of that Transformers high-concept pizzazz to the world the comic exists in.

A pretty good time that helps wind things down as the arc draws to a close.

A solid wrap up to this Starscream side story that gave us a nice break from the massive events of the previous story line.

Transformers is still one of the best books on the market right now, this issue is no different, even if there are things well worth critiquing.

In the end, this was a good final issue, to a fun story, but boy, am I glad that it's over. It was fun, but it's definitely time to move on to something new, and that Riddler tease at the end really got me excited for a change of pace. But as it stands, "Shadows of the Bat" was a fun romp that showed you don't need Batman around to tell a fun Batman story, but he's certainly never unwelcome to show back up and help with the cleanup. It had some good intrigue, good art, fun character writing... just overall, pretty darn good I'd say.

Good setup for the big milestone issue, and with some character pathos sprinkled in for good measure.

A good character-building issue fleshing out those new and established.

Well done, well drawn, and a quick breezy read. A fun, if standard, issue.

A good, standard issue with some solid storytelling.

It's safe to say this is a fun little romp so far. I think this a really fun format for the book, and I wouldn't mind it sticking around a bit longer to get some more attention on the other characters. So much of this franchise's cast could easily hold down stories all on their own, so I'd love for the comics to take advantage of that more. We don't ALWAYS need another generic Sonic vs. Eggman or Sonic vs. Fast Rival showdown, y'know? They're fun, but sometimes you gotta add some spice to the mix to keep things fresh.

A cute and fun little romp to celebrate Sonic's best bud, and a great, quick read for fans.

Good character moments and world building are held back by the sheer number of different artists handling the visuals, making things feel a bit disjointed.

A solid and well-crafted entry that continues the story competently, but is otherwise just a stepping stone on the journey this arc is on.

Another fun entry that tries to further move the book into a more experimental direction for the IDW series.

Some big twists make this a turning point issue in the mini and a must read.

A step forward in a good direction, but has trouble balancing the character's earnest nature with the serious, grim nature of the subject matter.
