This fresh take on the Transformers universe is a perfect blend of action, storytelling, and nostalgia. The art style is vibrant and dynamic, capturing the essence of the characters while modernizing them for a new generation. The story is expertly crafted, offering a deep dive into the origins of the Autobots and Decepticons.

It’s more than a comic—it’s a journey into a rich, evolving universe that promises even more excitement in the volumes to come. Highly recommended!

I’ve recently gotten back into Transformers after over a decade and wanted to dive into the comics. After hearing much praise of this story, I wanted to check it out. The end result: HOLY CRAP! This story is incredible and very engaging so far. This volume packs so much of a punch that I was entirely expecting. The brutality is insane where I felt so many emotions while reading it through. Sadness, heartbreak, anger, anguish all wrapped into one. The art truly shines and comes to life through every page. This volume has already highlighted why Optimus Prime has always been one of my favorite characters. So much respect, compassion, nobleness. So many layers and good ideologies presented through this volume alone. The Decepticons are a force to be reckoned with - Starscream being new leader after the fall of Megatron and decides to go on a killing spree. Just crazy, R rated material and it works very well. I will definitely continue reading this storyline! As a renewed Transformers fan, this is a hard recommendation! Certainly has lived up to the hype.

An absolutely page turning story. Read in one seating and you would think that stories about transforming cars wouldn’t feel human but these are some of the most human characters I’ve ever read.

Way better than a Transformers story needs to be. The artwork is outstanding and although the story isn’t anything new it’s a good read.

5/5 writing and art. Already one of the best transformers comics ever. I wish the physical graphic novel had at least the covers and some sketch/preliminary art pages in the back. Hopefully they come in a future hardcover or omnibus version.

Grandson really enjoyed it.

Great reimagining of the original series imo. If you’re looking for idw style edge this is not that but it is fantastic in its own ways.

Sons first comic and he won’t put it down
