Great issue. So glad to be away from Necroworld.

Getaway felt a little bit cartoon-villain to me but otherwise it was a good read. First Aid is such a great character.

I enjoyed it. I'm glad they didn't bring Skids back, although I do wonder with his brain laying about whether there is still potential...

Ouch. That hit me right in the feels.

The latest issue felt like a bit of a return to form.

That ending was kind of brutal.

Wasn't there a change in editor recently? Maybe that explains why everything now feels so bloated

I like Rewind

Issue 5 did nothing to change my mind. It's like all of the characters have become parodies of themselves. Brainstorm used to genuinely make me laugh but now he just sounds as snarky as everyone else.

I really want this arc to be over.

I think killing off the DJD was a mistake. They certainly needed benching but there's no sense of threat. I'm secretly hoping that Megatron actually used his black hole power to move them somewhere should he have a need for them again. Bringing back Overlord for that tiny cameo on Necro World does s...

It turns out that Dying of the Light came out 1 year ago this week.

1 year.

That was a slow paced story + with a several month break. Maybe that's why it feels like the plot has slowed down so badly.

and this bothers me. The plot has slowed down to a crawl. I can't wait for this necro-world era to be over. I miss the ship and the rest of the crew. I hate most of the new characters that Roberts has created. The DJD, Rung, Pharma were awesome. I couldn't care less about Velocity, Anode, Lug and ev...

I'm getting really sick of all of the "made up" characters tbh. It's a big cast already.

I know it's not a great criticism but there are so many Transformers out there

Milne has already tweeted that he's got no IDW work lined up besides a few covers (and he didn't get to do one for issue 1, despite there being 7+ variants). He speculates that he was dropped because a new artist on a new Issue 1 will help drive sales. I think something that annoyed me about this is...

I thought it was a little too heavy on the humour, and I like the humour generally.

The new artist is good...but not a patch on Milne

I wonder if Terminus will be responsible for eventually turning Megatron back to the dark side. Let's face it, I *LOVE* Megatron as an Autobot, it's the best characterisation he's ever had, but it's not going to last.

Ravage :( "Don't change back" ...really moving. I think it's up there with Scorpy in G1. But yeah. This was wonderful. I can't help but feel a little trolled that Roller isn't Tarn, but I'm sure the clues about Glitch are there if I go back and look properly. When Terminus showed up the hairs on my ...

Loved it. That splash page of him entering the battle with his fusion cannon was incredible. Is this the best Megatron we've ever had? I think so. Gutted about Skids, but I had him marked for death the moment he deciphered what he saw on Luna 1. His story was effectively done. It's kinda sad that he...

This is the last time these characters will all be together. I'm happy to let Roberts tell his story at his own pace.

The relationships I enjoy, they are a fresh idea for TF fiction and seem more like a very deep friendship than anything romantic. I love my best friend but I don't want to bum him, after all. Is it detracting from the main plot? Maybe for some. It doesn't feel like it to me. I would be bored out of ...

Domey is ****** isn't he. There have been a lot of references to how bad injecting is for him recently, and he's about to do it to a spark eater...

Latest issue is finally out.

Meh. I am really struggling to enjoy this. Maybe it will read better as a trade.

I knew *he'd* be back, it was too good a plot point to leave hanging! The entrance didn't quite have the gravitas I hoped though (possibly as I was reading whilst on the bog).

Ravage is absolutely perfect. Why would he give a toss about Ten? Such a good moment. Ten is so adorable. He's doomed. That ending was so unexpected and brilliant. What are people's thoughts on the organics in stasis? My guess is they are the remainders of the species that Megatron made extinct and ...

Maybe if the Autobots were at full strength they might have a shot against the DJD. Only it's not just the DJD is it It's a **** of Decepticons too. Also Ultra Magnus has an arm off. Megatron is on his poisoned energon. I'm actually wondering if those ISIS style videos were filmed by the DJD at all....

Brainstorm, Ravage and Ten are so boned :( Not sure about Ten. He's shown in the second story, which (I think) takes place after the main story. Plus, they need to reveal that he's actually a reformatted Roller, so his story may not be done. I think the story was set in the past, and it was present...

Brainstorm, Ravage and Ten are so boned

I was thinking Skids could be a contender, but we've yet to find out the deal behind the spark things he saw on Luna 1

It's out in less than 2 weeks. The DJD are on their way. Megatron has, in a moment of wonderful timing, denounced violence. What do you think will happen? My predictions: * The DJD wont kill Megatron, but they will take him away for torture - prompting a rescue mission from the Lost Light crew. * At...

The Vader comic is, on a monthly basis, the Darth Vader stories I've always wanted to read. Been trade-waiting on Vader Down, though. Anybody else feel like Secret Wars could have been done as six issue mini? Or, hell, even as a 48/64 page 1-shot? Yes, and just about every other event crossover sin...

I'm not feeling it so far. It doesn't feel like the stakes are very high. There's time for that to change though.

Hubcap's speech patterns annoy the heck out of me too.
