Transformers #20

The return of Megatron is the focus of Transformers #20. Fearing the worst, the Autobots shore up their defenses and Optimus Prime uses the last of their dwindling resources to revive the Aerialbots (who all get a bit of an introduction here suggesting they have an important role in the battle to come). Still outnumbered, and outgunned, will the five returning heroes (who are presented here as the most compassionate of the Autobots) help hold the Ark?

Transformers #18

Transformers #18 jumps around to follow the same separate storylines from the past couple of issues. We get more of the battle between Devastator and Bruticus as the internal war within the Decepticons comes to a screeching halt with the sudden appearance of Megaton which signals bad news for the rag-tag Autoboots on Earth. Elsewhere, the American Military catches up to the group of Arcee, Beachcomber, Ultra Magnus, and Carly. Not yet realizing the difference between Autobots and Decepticons, they attack and take Ultra Magnus prisoner. While the comic doesn’t go quite as far to confirm the group as G.I.

Transformers #17

Transformers #17 jumps around quite a bit to storylines both on Earth and on Cybertron. We see Thundercracker discovering the fate of Skywarp (but being unable to offer his friend any peace). We get Arcee and Beachcomber, along with the humans, searching for Ultra Magnus. We get the continuation of the Decepticon factions fighting each other spilling into the nearest human city forcing the Autobots to get involved, rescuing as many humans as they can. And, on Cybertron, we see the Autobots making a run at the Decepticons and the Hall of Sparks.
