I can't resist a shitty old-school style crossiver. All 4 issues so far purchased. I must have them all.
What brought Ralph back to Transformers related comics? A nonsense crossover event. I had...no choice!

The ROM: REVOLUTION #1 issue is good. Another 3 REVOLUTION issues have also been published to date.

I'll get the tpb so easy to get the whole set because it can be finding the titles in shops - hard finding Transformers at FP Leeds at the moment, you go past them 5 times before you find them hidden in the U section.

ROM so far is the shining jewel of this affair (along with his regular series). Micronauts is both rubbish in its own right but even worse when compared to the first few issue of the original series. MASK was hilariously bad, trying to do grim and gritty but reading like nonsense.
The main series #1 involved humans who have caught Moron Disease.
I am doomed to read all of this, however. I can't turn back now.

What's Revolution actually about? My allergy to TF/GI Joe crossovers has stopped me from digging deeper

I think shall indulge in some trades of the opening instalments of these toy line titles when the time comes.

I only care that his comic is boring. -Ralph |

I got the bundle last night and read the Mask comic - what a heap of rubbish.

I'm quite enjoying the IDW comics at the moment. Revolution 1 & 2 has some great artwork and is moving at a fast pace, Transformers ex-RID has been developing nicely, MTMTE continues to provide entertaining and thought-provoking stories, and even Till All Are One has delivered on the Combaticon arc. My wallet is suffering, but it's a great time to be a comic fan.

Foolishly paying full whack for Revolution #2 (little suspecting it would go on sale a few hours later) I had a read through.
Jings, Scarlett and Matt Trakker are utterly thick. Prime has also caught moron disease. The plot for this only works if the main characters are complete idiots!

The character profiles in Revolution #3 were unexpected, but necessary given that most readers only know a few of the characters.
