CONQUERORS: CONCLUSION! The most dramatic action ever taken by an AUTOBOT sets the stage for next month's mammoth issue 50. Earth and CYBERTRON. OPTIMUS PRIME and GALVATRON. SOUNDWAVE and COSMOS. It all comes together at four billion miles an hour.
An excellent conclusion to an interesting arc that promises to further change what we understand about the Transformers Read Full Review
What makes for a good prologue to the intriguing and exciting new direction starting in next month is also makes a lacklustre conclusion to this current storyline. An ultimately disappointing issue propped up by some good character work and impressive art. Read Full Review
Wait, since when can Frenzy and Rumble fly? I know they have in early episodes of the tv show, but I figured the comics ignored that because it's stupid. Anyway, this is a pretty cool issue, I'm very sad to see Soundwave screwed over by Galvatron but, to be fair, Soundwave definitely should have seen that coming. Actually, it's pretty out of character for him not to have. Perhaps he was blinded by his optimistic ambitions. Optimus's entrance takes some dramatic liberty too, he didn't look like he was coming out of the ship, where the space bridge would spit him out, but damn if he didn't delivery a bad ass line. I think I like this side of Optimus a lot more than the self doubting Optimus.
