    But Why Tho? - Quinn Jan 1, 1970

    With the main focus on Termagax and her wonderful House, Transformers #34 is entertaining with plenty of witty dialogue and tension. The artistic team brings some great visuals to this issue, and Ruckley is keeping this story putting along nicely. Read Full Review

    A good, solid retelling of some of Cyberton's hidden and mysterious past. Read Full Review

    There is wonderful, powerful storytelling here that unlocks and explains parts of the TF mythos perfectly. But I can't help but feel that this is the wrong point in the broader arc to tell this part of the story. The art is glorious. Rich, vibrant, with the use of light with style and flair, and everyone rendered in their G1 glory. It's dynamic and I want more. And there's a brilliant, subtle reworking of the deception logo in battle damage on Galvatron's chest that genuinely made me laugh. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - Edward Oct 21, 2014

    All in all, this is an unusual issue in it's break away from the current action, but it's something the title needs. However, it also has a cliffhanger that is a little confusing/omnious, but I'm still all for it. Read Full Review

    An unexpected (and somewhat unwelcome) detour, though I should come to expect these historical tangents by now as they seem to be a regular occurrence for Transformers. I'm pleasantly surprised to see Ramondelli on the art, I figured he was too busy with Transformers: Primacy, but maybe he finished that before doing this; he's always does ancient Cybertron well, though I would prefer to stay on track with the current storylines. On the plus side though, Rhinox is in this one! And possibly even an explanation to bestial transformers...
