Yeah, it is ridiculously bad. More lovely callbacks than in prequels in "it is like poetry, it rhymes" fashion. It is a quintessential licensed comic, with heavily referenced and static art, lack of ambitions, wrong tone, and awkward attempts at making it more action-y.

It only just started and it might take a while before Aaron or any of the Marvel writers do anything interesting with the property because the Force Awakens has yet to be released. Marketing synergy can make tie-ins pretty lame.

It kinda sounds like He-Man's Injustice.

I wonder what gritty Fisto looks like?

Speaking of Hasbro, Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye published by IDW has been really good since pretty much the beginning of the series. In the IDW universe, the war is over, and all the remaining Cybertronians were called back to Cybertron, which leads to a lot of tension, obviously. The situation on Cybertron is followed in the Transformers series (formerly Transformers: Robots in Disguise) which I liked up until after a crossover between the two changed the focus of the story. Anyway, MTMTE followed Rodimus deciding to find the Knights of Cybertron, a potentially mythical group of Transformers, and he takes along a rather ragtag crew of Autobots and Decepticons. It's really well written with great characterization and a sprawling plot.

Any other recommendations with Transformers comics since IDW has like a hundred Transformers comic series.
