* The Hasbro Universe crossover event of 2017 is here!
* Aliens! Robots! Ninjas! Lasers! Fast cars! Jokes! This one's got it all!
* "The speed of Fast and the Furious! The military action of Rambo! The giant robots punching other giant robots of everything awesome ever! I love it!"- David Mariot more
This is just a fun series that has my inner 8 year old excited and smiling at the action and to see all of these properties come together in one epic story that's not just action but also a surprising amount of depth. Read Full Review
Do you know what I love about this War, is Joe and his team of Villains even wrong, if giant robots put a flag on earth would we want to be part of their galactic universe waiting to be swatted like a bug with a newspaper. Read Full Review
The series is beginning to lose it focus as writers Mairghread Scott and David Rodriguez draw in more characters and shift away from exploring the core Scarlett/Ironblood relationship that was so critical in issue #1. There's plenty of fun spectacle here, but less opportunity for the writers to settle in with any one character. Read Full Review
This issue is a step down from the first mainly because it didn't have the same flow, which is unfortunate because issueone was fantastic. Read Full Review
First Strike is seriously pushing its luck by squeezing ROM in, the story is cluttered with too much as it is without the one tick pony known as the Dire Wraiths getting involved. There are too many bland characters diluting the cast, the exact same story could be told with just Transformers and G.I. Joe and it would probably work out better. The backup story is not bad.
