    I digress though, the book is well written and Ramondelli's art lifts it to a level of dark beauty few other books will reach this month. This is not the issue to start with if you are a beginner and by its very nature of crossing over into every other book in the Revolution event, it runs the risk of alienating those with smaller budgets or no interest in the books that are merging with Transformers. It is however one of the biggest changes to happen to the Transformers series in a long time and that brings with it its own share of promise and problems. Read Full Review

    IDW's Revolution crossover event is on the horizon, bringing together the worlds of Transformers, G.I. Joe, Micronauts, M.A.S.K., Action Man, and ROM. This, naturally, is wonderful news for fans of any/all of these properties. The only drawback is that Transformers #56 is basically just one big set-up issue. Read Full Review

    Monkeys Fighting Robots - Anthony Wendel Sep 1, 2016

    The good use of the crossover while still progressing the plot from previous issues makes the book really stand out. It will be interesting to see where they take the plot from here and how the overall Transformers series will be affected when everything is over. Read Full Review
