DWJ is on a generational streak with this series. I've not seen a book this consistently good in a long long time and I can't believe we're already 18 months into this. The epic visuals; the pitch perfect characterization and the ambitious storytelling do not tke breaks. There are no filler issues, no padding. All of it is in your face and relevant to the ongoing story and this issue culminates everything that has happened so far into the return of a character just as iconic to this brand and to pop culture as Optimus himself.
Its been building for a while but the moments of gravitas interspersed throughout the chaotic action still feel fresh and poignant. My anticipation for what's to come cannot be higher.
This book is a godsend. Never a bad issue.
Read this book.
There’s alotta reprints for issues 1-6; hunt them down and enjoy a glorious first arc.
I didn’t love the 2nd arc as much, but that’s to be expected. They opted to lay groundwork, and that forethought pays off swell in the third arc.
If you don’t jump in now, then you’re bound to regret it. DWJ is so hot right now.
