Using Sata as a sword was funny, but pretty stupid at the same time.

I'm confused about Stardrive's ability to fly: Starscream openly questions why she isn't flying and I assume it is because she sustained damage in the previous issue when Livia grounded her, but she flies later in the issue (presumably even carrying Bumblebee and the corpse of Ultra Magnus into orbit). So I don't get what's supposed to be happening here, it wasn't communicated clearly enough.

The development with Ultra Magnus -which I don't want to spoil- was clever enough (and consistent with his character) that I don't feel cheated.
