Continuing Titan's collections of the very first Transformers comics, chronicling the civil war between the heroic Autobots, led by the noble Optimus Prime, and the evil Decepticons, ruled by the crazed Megatron! Teenager Buster Witwicky has been given the power of the Creation Matrix by Optimus Prime, who currently lies in the hands of the Decepticons. Their leader, Shockwave, plans to use Prime to create new, even more powerful Decepticon warriors...so that they can steal the Earth's fuel resources! But little does Shockwave know that his plan will be threatened by forces both within and without his team, as the Dinobots make an explosive return, Starscream's treacherous nature surfaces, and the Transformers meet their human nemesis - Circuit Breaker!

5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful fun, takes me back to my childhood,
By Vernon Clark Mayo "Fastest gun, comic god" (Allen Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Transformers, Vol. 2: New Order (Paperback)
reprints issues 7-12, this is volume 2 of 14 that reprints all 80 issues of the Marvel comics transformers comic from the 80's.
I'm not going to bother explaining the story since amazon has it right there already, but what I can do is explain that this book has held up exteremly well over the years, so many books feel dated and there are little things here that are very 80's but the stories hold up, and i might say they may be better than the cartoons, much liek the G.I Joe comics of the same time and publisher, they were not held back as badly as TV shows were, not to say there is sex and lots of blood here, no these are very child safe issues, but they just seem a little better written, and that's saying something since i loved the old cartoon and toys. I wish i could have got the original issues but they cost $10 or more for many issues, the cost of one trade here, it's a real good deal and i think old fans will love it, i did, but also new fans could be made, this is the best way to hook a new fan, while cartoon animation can suffer more over time these don't, so maybe you will want to grab a copy for yourself and maybe your kid or a friend, and i bet you will be buying all 14 volumes before it's over...with these stories, there is more than meets the eye.

This review is from: Transformers, Vol. 2: New Order (Paperback)
I highly recommend reading these classic stories from the original Marvel 80 issue run. Bob Budiansky is a great writer, and some of these early stories really show off his creative talent. The art is not bad, particularly the cover art for issue #9. Also, this compilation shows us the first appearance and origin of Circuit Breaker, one of the most interesting comic book characters of all time!

My stepson loves transformers and hates to read, so this comic series was a wonderful way to help get him interested in reading.
