Product Description: Unicron is no more. Galvatron has been destroyed. But for the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons... the war goes on! Continuing the bestselling series of collections featuring the rare UK stories, originally published as single issues by Marvel UK in the 80s, City of Fear throws the spotlight on the Transformers' homeworld of Cybertron. Ultra Magnus is finally back home, and the welcome is warmer than he possibly imaged! An old enemy, a rogue Autobot from the planet's dark past, has resurfaced, with a terrifying agenda. Cybertron and its cities will burn... and the dead will inherit all! Classic Transformers strip action, plus previously unseen bonus material.
Probably the weakest of the Furman UK stories I consider myself a huge fan of the Simon Furman, and his run on the Marvel UK Transformers book is legendary. However, the stories collected in "City of Fear" are more filler material and do not really have a coherent theme. Even worse, this book features a lot of artwork by Dan Reed, who I consider to be the worst artist to have worked with Furman and an awful artist in his own right. The stories themselves are not bad, but they unfortunately are not particularly memorable. I would recommend waiting to purchase this volume only after completing the rest of the run.
