DARK REIGN! The fallout from the devastation on Earth ripples outwards, all the way to Nebulos, where GRIMLOCK faces his own darkest demons and a fateful choice that may cost him his very Spark. The dark reign of SCORPONOK begins here, and nothing will ever be the same again!
This is a very brutal series unlike any other Transformers story I've ever seen. It's violent and very adult oriented. This series isn't tied into the 2 other books and I like it this way, it makes the story its own. For fans of the original Transformers series, you need to be reading this! Read Full Review
Overall, a really good start to Natural Selection. After the grand battle with Optimus and Megatron last time, an issue focused on setting a new story and Grimlock taking center stage was welcome. The Dinobot leader has never been more engaging as a character, and due to his decisionnear the end, I'm very curious to see where this goes. Transformers fans should be reading Regeneration One.

I can't bag too hard on this issue; the series has been fairly enjoyable thus far. This is a series a fan could read, and read only this Transformers series and be just fine. It is encased in its own timeline and its own events, which makes it a good choice. It is not very approachable to new readers who may find themselves looking for a jumping on point. For long time fans I'm sure this is a good series to be reading. Transformers: Regeneration One #86 is not overly compelling, and is not aided by the constant scene jumping. The art is so-so, and the impacts of the major plot points are not as heavy as they were intended to be. I can only hope that this skilled team can bring this series out of the slump of predictability and clinging to retelling continuity issues. Read Full Review
