Review: This thing is nothing but pure AWESOMENESS. From the ... - This thing is nothing but pure AWESOMENESS. From the art to the stories to the atmosphere, all of it just screams QUALITY. The most compelling story, I found in this series was Shockwave. I know from Transformers Prime and the original G1 Cartoon that Shockwave was a cold, detached, and calculating Decepticon, but his story here gives you a new reason to fear him. He has this ability to make anger and rage sound even more terrifying. His thought process only makes this all the more interesting. Megatron's story is also quite fascinating, and it gives you a new reason to sympathize with his reasons as to why he believes in violence and overthrowing the caste system on Cybertron. Even if the methods are not agreeable, you understand exactly where he's coming from as a former slave turned revolutionary. Those are just two stories. GO READ THEM.
Review: Truly amazing and intense. Dark and mysterious, it has become my favorite universe of Transformers so far! - The stories are super fantastic and filled with a lot of interesting things and feels you don't get from the cartoons. This definitely has a Generation One feel to it! I feel that the stories are much darker than any tv show I have ever seen from transformers. I enjoyed it so much I have decided to buy the entire series to this! My favorite are obviously the main plot stories, but I also enjoyed the Spotlight:Nightbeat. He's gotta be a favorite now! His story was so intense for me and the dialog was incredible. It made me feel like I was reading a crime novel! It had some mystery and an urge to know more about what happened to him. If you're an old G1 fan like I am and miss those old characters, this is the book series to get! Don't pass this one up!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful book.
*by R***5 on October 11, 2016*

Very nice book that holds 16 Transformers comics all in order. The art is beautiful. The book is 11 inches tall so you get nice large easy to see and read pages. I was a little sad when I ordered this thinking I would miss out on the cover art of the comics but each comic starts with it's cover so nothing is lost. I have never been interested in comics before but the art of IDW pulled me in and I love Transformers. What makes these collection books so good is it puts all of the comics in the series in order for you so your not confused where to start. I will be collecting more of these.
