Transformers 2023 #5 

 

I am beginning to notice a pattern in this comic book series. I will get into that in just a little bit in this review of the Transformers 2023 #5 comic book. There are twenty pages of comic book content within Transformers 2023 #5. There are also two pages devoted to letters sent in relation to this comic book series. There are some advertisements near the end of the Transformers 2023 #5 comic book.

There will be spoilers in this review. I noticed many of the ads in Transformers 2023 #5 are card games of some sort. I really am not a fan of the card battling games personally. The art continues to be dark, noisy and ugly within Transformers 2023 #5. A few issues back I sent in a letter telling them I am not a fan of the artwork. It was in response to the editor challenging a reader to find someone that did not like the artwork. The only letters they are showing are the ones that kiss up to them.

The issues families can have with Transformers 2023 #5 are violence, blood, and more. The pattern being used in this comic book series is to throw out some new character(s) when it looks like one side is going to win. So Starscream attacks the Autobots when they are getting energy to fix their comrades. RC is fixed and then turns the tide of the battle there. When the Autobots attack the Decepticons then the Constructicons make an appearance to shift the balance of power in their direction.

The credits in Transformers 2023 #5 can be found on the front of the back cover. Initially I planned to stop reading this comic book series after this issue. I have decided to give this Transformers comic book a few more issues to make that final determination. I still do not like the artwork. I am becoming less interested in the who will appear next to shift the power balance the other direction. It honestly is getting lame because I know someone will appear.

Optimus is getting so abused in Transformers 2023 #5. I hope at some point he will get to heal. This back and forth of attacks is also getting a bit on the old and lame side. I do not expect either side to finish off the other side anytime soon. It would be nice if there was some form of a cease fire for the sides to build up. I guess this series wants to keep throwing in some new character here and there to keep readers interested.
