I love the art, and I adore Megatron's face markings x3 The Decepticons kick so much ass in this comic.

I liked the story quite a bit, but for me the art was too dark/same-y. It was super difficult for me to tell the characters apart in some panels, and my understanding of the story was slowed waaaaay down because I kept having to flip back and forth trying to figure out which Transformer was talking at any given time.

Finally finished after years of meaning to. Character art is decent, but action can be hard to follow. Decent story. Reading this while in the midst of the 2012 IDW arcs really shows the potential and ambition they've always had, but also just how far they've come.

This seems to be the new canon that the franchise has adopted for Megatron and I am glad for it. This backstory is sympathetic, inspiring, and inexcusable. The perfect villain origin story!
