Transformers: Time Wars - a fitting end
I read this when it first came out in the weekly Transformers comics, and I loved it back then. Looking back now, it still stands as a great story.
The art is exemplary, showing just how much better than their american cousins UK comics looked in those days. Compare this to US Transformer work and there's no contest. Even when the same artists followed Simon Furman over to the US title, they didn't look this good. Even today, few comics look as nifty as this one.
Possibly knowing that he was off to write the US comics, Simon Furman used the Time Wars to wrap up the years of Movie-related storylines he wrote for the UK title by bringing pretty much every cool Transformer together for a big scrap (although Death's Head was sadly busy in his own title), including the long-awaited fight between Optimus Prime and Galvatron, something that was always rendered impossible by Prime's all-too-common "deaths" and disappearances whenever Galvatron turned up.
Not as fresh or as exciting as some of the earlier epics (Target:2006 and The Legacy of Unicron are better), this is a fitting end to the "Galvatron Stories", and like the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline it resembles, will give the continuity fans great, but worthwhile, headaches!
this story rules
love the transformers stories this one was an all time classic megatron meets galvatron and both take out the wreckers, and the mayhem squad, then galvatron takes on optimus prime, rodimus, scorponok, and ultra magnus and their crews all by himself good story all tf fans should buy it as for poor shockwave he went to great lenghts to prevent his death that happened in 2010 and he was really killed by death's head but then again he was killed by megatron, and galvatron in 1991.
