This review is from: Transformers: Second Generation (Transformers (Titan Books Paperback)) (Paperback)

It's pretty easy to tell, reading this compilation, that Furman was essentially doing the best he could with instructions to market combiner teams. Thankfully, though, only one of the reprinted issues in this trade is actually a full-blown advertisement for "how cool" the combiner teams are. But apart from that minor irritant, the plot is what you'd expect from Furman.
