Picked up the DX edition for £5.99 OK Comics Leeds saturday - 26 pages extra but the intro from the normal edition is missed out.

Enjoying it so far, looks like they are juggling the multiple artists quite well, different scenes getting different artists rather than just done via page count which is a good thing. Livio is back doing some pages which is welcome.

I am enjoying the crossover, although one of the new artists style is a little too jarring for me at times - his lines are a bit too thick if you get me.
Otherwise great stuff.

I picked up Dark Cybertron#1 this week and gave it a read-through. It didn't really particularly grab me. It was perfectly competently done, but nothing about it really made me desperate to see the next part. Certainly nothing about it intrigued me enough to make me want to pick up a comic I'm not currently buying (I'm trying to think of the last crossover that did that and in honesty other than the "Days of Futures Present" Fantastic Four annual I can't really think of any at all). I think I am going to go with my original plan and just drop More Than Meets The Eye for the duration and come back once the crossover has passed.

Dark Cybertron #1 is worth it for the embossed cover and sketch work, but I have to admit I'm taking the same approach to the rest of the series. It's an enjoyable read, but I don't feel the same urge to pick it up every month like MTMTE. Like most TF stories, I'll be buying it in the trade paperback and hardcover edition eventually.

Have to say the crossover lacks some of the energy that MTME has. It was nice for a wee Nick comeback but I am missing Alex's work.

Reapd hazed on DC due to cheapness. Then realised I needed to read the issues I had not read before it. So not such a cheap morning after all. Eep.

Decided to snag Dark Cybertron after all, seeing as the issues I actually needed came to just over eight pounds. I figure that at the rate of an issue a day it gives me several weeks reading at a fairly cheap price, so why not?

Dark Cybertron trade v1 is here.
I reread the series on Comixology this week..... and having done so I think they got the format wrong. I think They should have launched with Dark Cybertron 1 as they did, then had the Lost Light and Cybertron strands continuing in their own titles with the Dead Universe strand in a limited series. Bring it all back together at the end.
The three strands in each book with it's different artists and styles just doesn't work for me.

Is there a reading guide for Dark Cybertron? I am terribly confused in what order it is to be read in. Do the DARK CYBERTON stand-alone issues come first or last? Do I read the RID or MTMTEE issues first?

Hmmm. Not much happened in part 1 but then it is a big summary mostly for folk who have not read previous comics.

Well I have read it all now and I really enjoyed it. Gloriously bonkers, a nice change of pace from what was going on in MTMTE (which had hit a natural pause) and flows logically on from what was going on in RID. 'Event' crossovers in comics are usually awful but that was great. Only fault I have is that the first part was low in story count and may have lost a few readers at that point.

I'm about two-thirds of the way through Dark Cybertron now. It felt a little bit slow until it reached the midway point, when it seemed to get real traction and start to move at a really good clip. I like a lot of what it does - there are some marvellous scenes with Megatron, and Starscream's role has been so in character - and blackly comic too.
I'm reading it at one issue a night, which is working out pretty well all told so far. A few issues to go though...

Shockwave's plan is that special kind of crazy batshit mental that only comics can deliver. It's Kirby level of nuttyness when he reveals what he is up to.
