Transformers v2 #2

So far the renumbering /soft reboot of the Transformers franchise has been pretty good letting new readers to jump in without know a whole lot of knowledge accept the american military isn't so sure they trust the Autobots anymore than the Decepticons at this point and Megatron is seemingly dead and most of the Decpticons seem to have fled the earth.

All of those idea's are intriguing and new to the franchise (as far as i know anyways)

The one problem tho is they came out with a one shot Bumblebee after the first issue that spoiled the entire set up of issue number 2 ! was this some sort of error in publishing? either way it doesn't make a lot of sense because the drama in the second issue was supposed to be who was gonna carry on after Optimus after he surrendered to Skywatch.


the rest of it ? well i like the more military feel of the book even from the Autobots perspective which makes sense given that Matt Costa previously worked on I.D.W's G.I. Joe Series.


And I also really keen on Don Figueroa's pencil work which is highly detailed on the robots and having the sense of scope needed to tell a story with giant robots.


So hopefully there wont be any mistakes like the last one so i can finally jump on to a transformers comic just like i did with there G.I. Joe Series last year.
