There's little point in hiding it: I found this issue difficult to review. It's action-less filler in many ways, but I put it down bowled over by how tight and affecting it was. There's very little to pick at and the whole thing feels like a single unit, despite the reality of its myriad moving parts. It's a story of speaking with silence, the art feels new and yet familiar, it's a self-contained moment that also extensively draws from past events and sets up for future plot lines. It's a mess of contradictions, but the point, it seems, is that it, like it's cast, is a beautiful mess. Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye #40 is a fantastic reminder of the range and potency this series possesses and just feels good to read. Read Full Review

A feel good and funny tale of friends and forgiveness in yet another great slice of life aboard The Lost Light. Yet with the Decepticon Justice Division hunting them down how long before that happiness is shattered. Read Full Review

Ratchet ends up being the glue that holds this issue together effectively. There is great containerization, emotion and humour throughout, and even a Back to the Future reference thrown in. The thing I didn't like about this issue was how easy Brainstorm got off; the characters comment on this as well, but there is not really any justification given. The guy nearly upended the entire universe's timeline and he's not even imprisoned for it?
