I quite liked the art, Panthor's presence and the last two pages, but again there's a distinct lack of Masters imagery or easter eggs for a franchise with such a visually rich history. The writing almost reaches the heights of mediocrity, and it's hilarious that DC got Mike Costa to write a MOTU comic - if he thought Transformers were "not looked upon favourably... in the comic book community," and that we are all "unpleasant", "arrogant" and "hostile" and don't know what we want... MOTU is probably not a good stop on his tour of toy franchises to write fifth-rate stories for.
I would have imagined that Costa would be more 'mentally' suitable to write MOTU because the characters are actually 'people', not machines. From Costa's 'Goodbye' interview, he apparently couldn't get around the notion of 'Machines as characters' and couldn't relate to the Franchise.
