    Aye. Lots of action in the beginning, little wasted space on human garbage. Variety of new characters show up in this issue.

    Had my Trade come in today. Really missing Milne here are wise. I'm liking it, just feel's rushed.

    It's alright. Similar to the first movie comic very striped down. Other than spoiling the plot of the movie there will be plenty to see on screen.

    I glanced at the first 9 pages and couldn't help but stop. I want a little bit of suprise in the movie.

    I broke down and read it and it seems from what we know about the movie that there is stuff just skipped over like somebody already said.I did'nt mind the human drawings in this issue so that was a plus as well.I found they looked like garbage in all the prequel comics.

    I agree. Milne, IMO, has the best touch for doing the movie characters.

    I'm assuming that it will be more like the first movie comic, which was rushed, lacking detail, and was a rather poor reresenation of the dialogue and film overall, and less like RoS, which was very well written, had great characterization, and had some memorable artwork.

    Also some items of note:
    Twins, if they do combine as in there Concept Car modes is not shown.
    Arcee is not shown combined as well.
    Jetfire Optimus is shown in Josh Nizzi art, very badass.

    Rushed, alot of the art looks like it was traced over images from renders, the previous movie and other things. Seriously if I could post scans I would just for the hilarity of it.

    ^^ Well, I love a good laugh.

    Anyways, I have seen and read the comic. I have certainly seen far worse artwork.

    Wow. What a waste. This was just as bad as the first. The only part which wasn't rushed was Jetfire's introduction scene. Many errors, way too short paneltime for several characters, often lousy art, and quick fight scenes make this not a memorable comic.

    got the first issue of this free last night for being one of the first 100 people in line for the movie.

    the comic is complete shit. seriously. the art is terrible. they get demolishor's alt mode wrong, which is inexcusable. he's tiny in robot mode. smaller than prime. MUCH smaller than prime. damn, they really got off to a bad start.

    the art, again, is just awful through the whole thing. I cant stress this enough. the scenes have no flow at all. some parts make no goddamn sense at all. it's just...

    trying to describe it is very hard. so I'll just say "it's shit, and dont you dare pay money for it".
