A Very Nice Collection,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Transformers: The Best Of Simon Furman (The Transformers) (Hardcover)
I have to disagree with the first reviewer. This is a very good book and a great purchase. Though I'm not quite sure I agree with all the selections, this is a diverse and comprehensive look at the work of Simon Furman, spanning from his US and UK Transformers work, through the Dreamwave era (though grossly under-represented) to the current IDW tales. It even contained some rarer tidbits like the War Within Preview and has a very diverse selection of art styles to complement the writing. The cover shown is incorrect, it is the Stormbringer teaser image of Cybertron. The quality of the book itself is top-notch with oversized pages and a hardback cover. Though the editor missed something pretty big, one page is printed twice during the Nightbeat issue. The page numbers are not interrupted, so it's very weird. Overall I would say if you like Simon Furman this is a nice collection to have. If you recently started reading TF comics, this showcases some great stories. Though, if you are unfamiliar with Transformers I highly doubt you will have a clue as to what is going on.

Not worth it,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Transformers: The Best Of Simon Furman (The Transformers) (Hardcover)
first of all thats not the cover for the comic, second of all its oversized with hard cover for no real reason. I thought this was about Hotroad/Radumis but it turned out to be following and writer stories dating back to the 80s "most of the comic is those stories" with one or two issues at the very last regarding Grimluck done with the new style.
all In all not worth the spend.
