Winner: Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye
If you had told me even a year ago that the single best comic on the stands was not only a Transformers comic, but the Transformers comic where the entire cast just sort of goofs around in space without ever getting any closer to accomplishing the goals that are nominally driving the book, I would've laughed you out of the office. And yet, here we are, in a world where I've read every issue of More Than Meets The Eye and can't wait for the next one.
The character work and astonishingly clever setups in this series have taken a franchise I never cared about and made it one that I'm deeply invested in, with heartbreaking drama and thrilling action just underneath a surface of comedy that's very hard to pull off.
It is, quite simply, The Best. [Chris Sims]

Winner: James Roberts
A great comic can come from anywhere, even a property built to sell toys, which has been through enough reboots to make DC Comics go “well, hold on now.” Nothing is better proof of this than Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye, a comic canonized as a minor miracle by Pontifex Prime (what the Popemobile turns into) due largely to its writer, James Roberts.
Roberts humanizes the Transformers like never before, keeping every detail of their massive backstory alien without being alienating, spinning a story where a minor detail from three years back can snowball into a revelation today, and unafraid to be funny, sentimental or heartbreaking, with breathtaking skill at all of these. That this is his first professional work is stunning, and I hope it’s far from his last. [Charlotte Finn]

Sorry I have a different opinion. Sorry I liked Transformers, when you know...it was about TRANSFORMERS... not gay robot drama. But I know I am the exception, and that's ok, I can keep rereading the small sample of past Marvel, Dreamwave, and IDW content that I consider well written and entertaining TF lore.

You act like the focus of MTMTE is gay robot relationships when it's not it's a subplot for a few issues but it's never been the main plot.
What's wrong with gay anyways their robots calm yourself it's no more stupid then straight relationships like Optimus and Elita-1.o.supreme wrote: Sorry I liked Transformers, when you know...it was about TRANSFORMERS
What is Transformers? You act as if their is a definition to Transformers.
I say MTMTE deserves it's reward for its good writing.

I had already addressed the difference in opinion, and this type of antagonising tone is not welcome.
Thank you.
