IDW Transformers ongoing [spoilers]
Yes we've seen a lot of this comic book in online previews, but it is on sale now. What did people think?
I enjoyed this issue and think the previews showing things out of context hurt the book
The good
*robots in disguise theme is done well
*human reaction to the TFs is believable (and it's not that G1 cartoon everyone's friends)
*the colouring is quite beautiful
*Don's art is still pretty great
*the battle spread seen in early previews is not an actual event (so lots of chars aren't suddenly back from the dead)
*unexpected cameos
*the Decepticon threat is mostly out of sight
The bad
*the teeth... yes they are annoying but can easily be overlooked
*humanoid bodies... a bit too humanoid in some cases
*an odd time shift towards the end when it jumped to flashbacks
*random Autobots... characters who weren't seen in AHM appear on Earth now or are name-checked
*Prime's angst is a bit familiar, and not really groundbreaking or newspaper worthy
I'm looking forward to issue 2.
