The tale of Zarta, which is kind of all over the place. There's a bad race that used to rule Cybertron and all of the Transformers were slaves. They had a war, but in the middle of it, Zarta left, so they would follow her. Then they trapped the big bad in a black hole? Huh? That's not how black holes work. This book is starting to wind down. If it doesn't end by issue 24, I'm probably going to drop it.
