Transformers Vol. 1: Robots in Disguise

Transformers Vol. 1 Review “Transformers Vol. 1” is a must-read for both long-time fans of the franchise and newcomers alike. This fresh take on the Transformers universe is a perfect blend of action, storytelling, and nostalgia. The art style is vibrant and dynamic, capturing the essence of the characters while modernizing them for a new generation. The story is expertly crafted, offering a deep dive into the origins of the Autobots and Decepticons. It balances fast-paced battles with meaningful character development, shedding light on familiar favorites like Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee, while introducing intriguing new twists. The emotional depth and political intrigue woven into the narrative elevate this from a simple sci-fi action story to something truly memorable. If you’re looking for a graphic novel that delivers on high-stakes drama, stunning visuals, and a compelling storyline, “Transformers Vol. 1” is a fantastic choice. It’s more than a comic—it’s a journey into a rich, evolving universe that promises even more excitement in the volumes to come. Highly recommended!

I’ve recently gotten back into Transformers after over a decade and wanted to dive into the comics. After hearing much praise of this story, I wanted to check it out. The end result: HOLY CRAP! This story is incredible and very engaging so far. This volume packs so much of a punch that I was entirely expecting. The brutality is insane where I felt so many emotions while reading it through. Sadness, heartbreak, anger, anguish all wrapped into one. The art truly shines and comes to life through every page. This volume has already highlighted why Optimus Prime has always been one of my favorite characters. So much respect, compassion, nobleness. So many layers and good ideologies presented through this volume alone. The Decepticons are a force to be reckoned with - Starscream being new leader after the fall of Megatron and decides to go on a killing spree. Just crazy, R rated material and it works very well. I will definitely continue reading this storyline! As a renewed Transformers fan, this is a hard recommendation! Certainly has lived up to the hype.

It is even better than you could possibly imagine!! I mean it. It is a must have and historical.

An absolutely page turning story. Read in one seating and you would think that stories about transforming cars wouldn’t feel human but these are some of the most human characters I’ve ever read.

Good comic book

Way better than a Transformers story needs to be. The artwork is outstanding and although the story isn’t anything new it’s a good read.

Great reimagining of the original series imo. If you’re looking for idw style edge this is not that but it is fantastic in its own ways.

While I myself have yet to read the IDW run of Transformers comics, the concept of a more serious take on this franchise is not new to me, or TF fans as we've had some many different takes over the years. This comic begins almost identically to the original pilot episodes of the 80s show, but immediately, two things become very clear. This WILL be an original story, and it WILL engage with the reader on an unexpectedly emotional level. The changes to the story are all done with a PURPOSE beyond merely surface level, I'm pretty certain there isn't a change that doesn't have a significant impact on the story or characters. The characters truly shine here. The Autobots feel truly heroic, the Decepticons are truly malicious, and the humans are truly vulnerable. Whether the character is made of metal or flesh, they all feel absolutely human on an emotional level. This comic has the touch, nuff said.

... à un univers qui m'était totalement inconnu. Des scènes d'action spectaculaires très bien illustrées guidées par un scénario simple et ultra rythmé. Seul défaut, tout va si vite que cela en devient à la limite confus notamment au jeu du qui est qui et du qui veut quoi. Une deuxième lecture n'est d'ailleurs vraiment pas inutile. Au final, il en ressort une belle histoire qui, si elle est dominée par l'action et l'héroïsme, n'en demeure pas moins touchante de par les relations entre humains et robots. Un très bon premier volume qui appelle la lecture du suivant.

手軽に読めてとても面白いです。 翻訳しながらの読書は初めてだったが、一つ一つのコマを丁寧に読み進めることができ、より物語に没入できます。 文字量もそこまで多くはなく気軽に楽しめました。 ただ、私は子供向けの日本語版アニメしか見ていなかった為、残虐なシーンが多く驚きました。ギャグシーン等でマイルドになる作風ではなく、序盤からずっと暗く、終盤も辛いシーンばかりでした。 しかし、トランスフォーマー達が戦闘する描写は素晴らしく、陰鬱な雰囲気を払拭するほど迫力があります。 ぜひ興味がある方は読んでみて欲しいです。

Genial

The detail is amazing and is very well fit in the panels. It has a different look from the G1 series perspective, but has that original style look from the series. As someone whose childhood has been Transformers (and I’m only 11) this was a very fun experience. The book was overall, an interesting read that brought together the simple elements of G1, combined it with the details the author gave and created a master piece. Kinda sad about Bumblebee’s death :( . But still beautiful book,

O quadrinho chegou antes do prazo, bem embalado e protegido de qualquer impacto, as impressões das páginas impecáveis, caligrafia exata como mostrado nas imagens. Recomendo muito!
