I love stories where there's not just a black and white (or red and purple) Autobot-Decepticon divide, and this does it well. (Plus... Swindle and Spyglass. Yay!)
The faces are actualy quite a bit different in issue 2, they are no longer growling at everyone, and the whole construction of the face is different. I can't say I like it better than the classic look, but I must admit the faces in issue 2 do actualy succeed at making Transformers look less cartoony without making them look disgustingly ugly.

I agree the story was better, though there are still many things unexplained if you try and connect the dots with the previous comics, and yes the humans more stereotypical and paperthin than ever. I read Kup's copy of the comic, and it's improved from issue one yeah, but I'm not buying into this one just yet.
