- Title: Transformers #2

- Writer: Brian Ruckley

Other than the introduction of a few more Generation One Transformers, not much happens in Transformers #2. Bumblebee continues showing Rubble around Cybertron, while also briefly discussing the current political situation. Their journey takes them to Wheeljack who lightens their day once more.
The other familiar face that shows up is Prowl who arrives on the crime scene to start investigating the death of Brainstorm and the sabotage. Other than letting us know that Prowl is a bit of a dick who may be respected but is not well liked by the other Transformers, not much other happens as the investigation is slow to get moving.
Transformers #2 wraps things up with Megatron‘s speech (the one that was foreshadowed in the last issue). As expected, trouble comes when the rally is interrupted by violence. The perpetrators get away, but their poor aim and the fact that their attack only help bolster Megatron’s position and rally against the status quo has to make one wonder just who the attackers were working for. For fans.
