Book Reviews of Transformers: Stormbringer
Book Review: One of the best IDW Transformer stories yet!
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
Summary of Transformers: Stormbringer
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!Science Fiction Books
