"Storm Horizon," Part One! Ultra Magnus, one of the four Great Generals of Cybertron's last war, finds himself far from home and his glory days on a deep space exploratory mission. But when his mentor, Alpha Trion, is reported missing from a nearby world, Magnus must solve a mystery with roots in an even more distant past that reaches from Cybertron to the unknown regions.
Storm Horizon gets off to a good start with this issue and its focus on Ultra Magnus should draw in more than a few casual Transformers fans. Read Full Review

This is a thoroughly enjoyable read, and a great way of getting back on the (astro)train. If you're a fan of the classic IDW runs, where characters had room to breathe and be developed, you'll be delighted with this; if you're up to your elbows in grease and oil you'll love the backstory; or if you just want a casual dip into a universe you have even a passing knowledge of, you'll find yourself getting pulled right it Read Full Review
Overall, although I personally don't find Ultra Magnus a very interesting character, Easton keeps the 'bot true to character. Despite there being a couple of hiccups in the dialogue, the creative team did a wonderful job breathing life into these characters. Read Full Review
This issue is a little uneven, but it's interesting enough to keep readers around for the next installment. Read Full Review
This Ultra Magnus is very different from the one I know and love from the previous IDW timeline, so this is going to take some getting used to.
The end is weird, Magnus seems intent to resist until his comrade validates this choice and encourages it... at which point Ultra Magnus immediately capitulates. What a jerk, lol.
