I've never liked the Transformers. The franchise didn't get its hooks into me as a kid, and while I've tried to give it a shot as an adult, it never really clicked. But now, with a recommendation from almost everyone I know and a well-timed Humble Bundle sale that left me with three years worth (and counting) of IDW's More Than Meets The Eye and Robots In Disguise comics, I'm going on a quest to see if these comics can turn me from someone who has never cared at all about Optimus Prime into someone who uses words like "Cybertron" and "alt-mode" with alarming regularity. And Primus help me, it's working. This week, things get way too real and I catch a whole lot of feelings about these stupid robots.

I’ve never liked the Transformers. The franchise never really got its hooks into me when I was a kid, and while I’ve tried to give it a shot as an adult, it’s never really clicked. But now, with the recommendations of almost everyone I know and a well-timed Humble Bundle sale, I’ve found myself in possession of three years worth (and counting) of IDW’s More Than Meets The Eye and Robots In Disguise comics. I’m working my way through a story arc every week, and if I have to read about these robots, you’re coming with me. This week, my favorite Autobot gets his head blown clean off, because of course he does. Uh... spoiler warning?

This week, the Transformers split into two groups, and Rodimus's crew encounters the ultimate in alien terror!

Over the past few months we've taken a look at issues from IDW's ongoing Transformers: Robots in Disguise title, but this week we're getting an early look inside its parallel title with a preview of Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye #14 by James Roberts, Alex Milne and Nick Roche...
