Product Description: For those of you craving unchecked, cover-to-cover giant robot action (guaranteed no humans!) on an epic scale, look no further. So far, we've had tantalizing hints about the state of play elsewhere in the Transformers universe, but now we look in on Cybertron itself, unlocking a dark, dark chapter in the planet's history, one that is about to hit the Autobots and Decepticons again... full force!
GREAT TF STORY This TPB has another great TF story from Simon Furman. It's a little short for my taste but the plot is quite good and character interaction is awesome! The art from Don Figueroa is spectacular as usual but, there are some panels that look rushed and not up to his high standards. The paper quality is A+
Best of the Best For adult fans of the series, especially the War Within - Furman and Figueroa pick up where Dreamwave left off. Great depth and art. Refreshing to not get a story dumbed down for teenagers. Art sets the bar for the Transformer brand.
Another great Cybertron story Another great must have Transformers story for those fans who love Cybertron centric story lines. No humans around for this gig, but there are plenty of mythological references to amply substitute.
not a bad tf story yeah the pretender origin told in a new way major points you wanna see prime, and megs and old thuinderwing and yes bludgeopn's there too all tf fans should read this.
highlights no humans too quote the classic transformers number 23 title humansd are wimps.
bonus the death and destruction bring on the pain and the death.
reincarnation love it bring back the dead and make way for armageddon.
One of the best IDW Transformer stories yet! If you're like me, you read the previous installment in the Transformer series and were disapointed. I really can't point out many things specifically that were bad about Infiltration, except IMOHO, it was slow. Too slow, and I didn't care to see things from the humans' perspective. I wanted to see what the Autobots and Decepticons were thinking more. Well, then we come to Stormbringer, which nearly makes up for Infiltration IMO. To my amazment, Stormbringer was only 4 issues long (I bought the individual comics, not the TPB)! This issue stars both Jetfire (as the Classics Jetfire) and optimus Prime in a pre-earth version of himself. The story apears to happen at the same time as Infiltration, and illuminates some of the events on Cybertron, and even tells how the Transformers had to abandon their homeworld. But back on Cybertron, a cult of Transformers has found a way to survive there anyway, and is trying to resurrect an evil that has slept for all this time, while trying to recreate the same technology that brought about this evil. What's so great about Simon Furmans' writing is that he doesn't just recycle all the old stories, but comes up with new, original stuff, based on the old toys. Here, we see a variety of characters, many of which I was unfamilier with, used in different ways. This story is fresh and new, not the same old blah. For the price, at Amazon, the TPB is ok, although it was originally only 4 issue long. But I would say it's much, much better than Infiltration.
