    It was okay, and a good first outing by the Mosaic team, penning something a little longer than they are used to. A bit sad that the best action in the AHM based comics comes from a standalone comic, rather than the main series.

    I read Jazz the same afternoon as AHM#9, so it might be that the awfulness of the story and art of that made Jazz seem all the better in comparison, but Su is a comic artist revelation, his art this issue was fantastic, and the colourist (can't remember who) did a good job of getting the darker palette, and colouring the battle worn landscape.

    The choice of Tracks was fantastic, a very middle ground bot who contrasted with Jazz perfectly.

    If the Predacons were Megatron's elite team, then how the hell did the Decepticons survive for so long? I know that it is all Razorclaws fault for letting his honour come in before the long range kill, and that he had Jazz bested, but the rest of his team were very stupid for running into obvious traps, and falling for otherwise simple tactics.

    For a one off stand alone comic it was good, but the past two Spotlights have been a massive step down from previous issues like Kup, Prime and Wheelie. The book reads like the story's setting within the comic: a simple distraction from the bigger picture.

    I thought this was a classic in every way. Although the story does not take any twists and turns, a good plot and nice artwork shows you don't need anything "fancy" to win the audience over.
