Transformers #21

Definitely worth your time and energon. Pick this one up! Read Full Review

Transformers #21is another nice-step forward in the current arc as Ruckley plants some seeds while fully exposing others in his long-game narrative. The tension between the Autobots and Decepticons is well handled while the decision to give some of he villains, namely Frenzy and Rumble, more page-time gives it a different feel to some of the recent issues. The art from the whole team is very good, creating some exciting action beats. ‘Rise of the Decepticons' continues to be a very interesting and entertaining story. Read Full Review

Megatron's broadcast was the only part that I found particularly interesting. This issue focuses largely on undeveloped characters and does not execute the artwork or dialogue with clarity. Things like reinforcements arriving, and whatever happened to the Decepticon that was supposed to haul the trailer, just seem to come out of nowhere.
