  Having been disappointed with IDW's Transformers franchise since Transformers: All Hail Megatron ended, Transformers: Robots in Disguise is a very welcome change.

  There is potential in Transformers: Robots in Disguise #1. Is there enough to bring me back for another issue? Perhaps, but just barely. I know it's weird to say about a franchise that's all about cars and jets turning into robots fighting each other, but slow things down a little. Give the story a chance to grow. It will make those big moments have all the greater impact. Read Full Review
