Transformers, Vol. 5: Horrors Near and Far

Description

The bold new vision of the Transformers universe continues! The war that will define Cybertron sees Autobots and Decepticons alike face challenges like never before. The war grows desperate for Optimus Prime's Autobots. With Energon and morale running low, they seize on a dangerous plan to boost Jumpstream's teleportation abilities. Meanwhile, Bumblebee enters a criminal alliance and Megatron learns that his former mentor holds an artifact that could be the key to the Decepticons' victory. Next, when a criminal group known as Mayhem threatens the Speedia 500, the biggest race in the universe, the Wreckers-a covert ops squad-show up to keep the peace. But can they maintain their covers in front of the cameras? Then, the fall of the tether that anchored Cybertron's moon was a critical step on the road to war, and the ancient Titan Vigilem caused it. Now the only other active Titan, Lodestar, and her cityspeaker, Lightbright, must hunt him down! And finally, when Starscream follows rumors of a disembodied spark in the desert, what he finds will horrify and rattle him to his core! Collects Transformers #31-36, Transformers- Wreckers- Tread and Circuits #1-4, the Transformers 2021 Annual, and the 2021 Transformers Halloween Special.

Before he became a full-time writer in the 2000s, he attended Edinburgh and Stirling Universities and had a series of assorted jobs around London, most of them in the charity-sector.

He now lives back in Edinburgh with his wife and misses the excitement of London only a little, and only occasionally.
