Here we are - Transformers #24 - the end of the Daniel Warren Johnson run.
Was it perfect? No … but it WAS really good.
The action was amazing, the characterizations were spot on, and the ending was nice and tight. This was the best version of Optimus Prime we’ve seen in years - he was brave, strong, noble, and cared about others - not the murder-bot from the “live action” films. The dialog was well thought out and flowed naturally - even when borrowing lines from the 86 animated film. Most … not all … but most of the characters had a moment or two.
Around the midway point - there is a deus ex machina in the form of the appearance of a … large … character, that I’m pretty sure wasn’t hinted a more
and thus DWJ's era of Transformers is over. Did it have a couple of bumpy rides? Yes. But every run has them. But was it great and consistent? Absolutely. Plan to re-read this again to appreciate it more. It was so fun and entertaining, and this was my first Transformers series. Congrats to the Image comics, you made me into a Transformer fan. I want to read more Transformers comics now.
