Sure.
He's largely (but not solely) responsible for the term "decompressed storytelling" as it relates to comic books. A lot of talking heads with minimal action and the plot being stretched 22 pages at a time over 6 issues. Ruckley is using 5 issues with a filler, but it's the same principle. The art tends to be more sweeping with less emphasis on action.
The counter is the old style where an issue had pretty much everything in it and if it had a cliffhanger then it would be roughly two issues for a complete story.
Ah, so the difference between the marvel comics and the IDW comics, storytelling wise then?

At this (or any) point since they got the Transformers license? Very little.
The trick is really more about making you feel as though something happened, whether anything actually happened or not.

It's definitely not exclusive to Marvel. Just Bendis is kind of known as the guy for it.

Here to say that it can be good. It being dialogue heavy means you still get a lot of personality from your characters and interactions between the different personalities can be super fun.
I really enjoyed a series called Dark Avengers, which Bendis wrote. Where Norman Osborne was the head of the Avengers, as a combination of both Iron-Man and Captain America, Bullseye was Hawkeye, Venom was Spider-man and Wolverine's son was their Wolverine. With a team like that, it couldn't be all talk, shit happened. And funny enough, they really did try to be heroes, that's what makes it all so tragically wonderful. I never found it boring.
He also wrote House of M and its lead up called Avengers Dissassembled which was VERY eventful and worth a read.
And of course his writing for Daredevil is some of the best Marvel Comics ever written.
His actual New Avengers though (with the avengers proper) could get quite grating. But overall, I would say I read more good stuff from Bendis than bad.

To be fair, I don't want anyone getting the impression I don't like Bendis. I own most of the comics he's written pre-X-Men. However, william-james88's assessment is in line with my own. It works when it works. It doesn't when it doesn't.

Oh man, and now it's been plaguing Batman too. I think it hit a new extreme with that book.
Also is it just me or is Daredevil still Bendis' best work in comics? I feel that's the only time his style really worked with a character.
Not at all Bendis' best work IMHO has always been more in the "street" level characters going back to his early and creator-owned work Fire, AKA Goldfish, Jinx, Scarlet, and Powers.
I feel he's more comfortable with "grittier" heroes like Daredevil and Batman than with sci-fi and fantastical characters like Superman and Iron Man. Although to his credit he's not afraid to try and write out of his wheel house with mixed results.
To me at least all of his comic work has always felt he was more HEAVILY inspired by Quintin Tarantino, for better or for worse, than any comic book writer he grew up reading.

Still buying out of a hope that it gets better and a general lack of self-control when it comes to collecting Transformers merchandise and media. Not proud of the latter sometimes, it's just what it is. If they go back to normal 5-6 issue TPBs I may scale back to just those for physical copies though.Ironhidensh wrote:Here is the real question: How many people are still buying this book because they actually like and enjoy it, and how many are doing it simply out of some sort of sense of responsibility and loyalty to the franchise?
Kinda cheating but if new characters count - the one panel showing the new lady bot that turns into Sentinel's spaceship made me realize that too few Transformers ships are also robots. Astrotrain, Sky Lynx, Galaxy Shuttle and others show this isn't a new concept, but this character looks to be new and I want to know more.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Now objectively list what IDW 2.0 has done uniquely off it's own back, without trading in on pre-existing continuity.
As far as concepts themselves go, yikes. Maybe the stuff with Rubble and choosing an alt mode being implied to be a rite of passage/coming of age sorta thing, but with them dead I guess that's not going anywhere. Maybe killing off Rubble so soon was a mistake

"The hunt is on! Chromia and Prowl launch a massive security operation, desperately trying to track down two murderers. Bumblebee visits an injured Windblade, Orion Pax, Sentinel Prime, and Megatron wrestle for control and influence—and nobody knows whose side (if anyone’s) Termagax and Starscream are on in all of this!"
Interesting to note Jhiaxus in his Thrilling 30 rendition which itself was a retool of the Armada Starscream homage released that same year. Despite what some fans have described as slow pacing the title does not appear to be lacking in fun obscure references for fans of all Generations. Enjoy the preview and as always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!

Picked up the big hardback omnibus of this, through roughly ten issues or so. Just finished up Germ Free Generation and the silent issue. Story's good, I like the tight casting. The art is pretty bad if I'm honest, the layouts are fine but the details, eh, not so great. Still cool to get some additional context on Genosha.william-james88 wrote:And yeah, the only thing it really references is Grant Morrison's new X-Men which is great because that's the last time such pure and deep sci fi notions were explored.
These ten issues have also done way more than the Bold New Era. Heard it suggested that the Netflix series is supposed to tie in and that's why we're moving at a snail's pace. I really hope this isn't true, it makes the current product suffer and multimedia tie-ins rarely age well.

Thats the first I've heard of that, my thoughts were how would the comic react when the toyline outstrips its pace? Given that hasbro likes the comics to be advertisement, I wonder how it will work.

Some of the art is notoriously atrocious, one artist was drawing 3 issues a month. But did you find it all bad? The first few issues are by Quitely who is rather revered. Both he and Morrison have wirked a lot together and their work is covered in the class Va'al used to teach.

Art in the first few issues was mostly good, it was mainly Cyclops' face that bugs me. Is lumpy the right word? He looked lumpy. The layouts and sequential work were stellar regardless, no complaints there.william-james88 wrote:ScottyP wrote:Picked up the big hardback omnibus of this, through roughly ten issues or so.

Read the Xorn focused issue (127) yesterday where John Paul Leon did pencils with Sienkiewicz on inks and some of those pages were really really nice to look at, that last page especially.

Oh man, I absolutely LOVE that art. It was such a breath of fresh air while i was reading that run the first time. It's not your typical art, but it works. And yes, I feel the same about Quitely's Cyclops. I find his Emma frost costume also odd, I feel Van Sciver makes it work better (his art was probably the most traditional of the bunch).

The Ascenticon Guard, Security Operations, and The Rise are caught in a three-way faceoff. Cybertron is teetering on the brink of chaos, but there is still hope for peace. And leading the way to restore that peace are the only bots that make sense: Megatron, Soundwave, and Starscream!

A Seibertron.com Semi-Spoilerish Review of IDW Transformers #14
Synopsis
Now shipping monthly! The Ascenticon Guard, Security Operations, and The Rise are caught in a three-way faceoff. Cybertron is teetering on the brink of chaos, but there is still hope for peace. And leading the way to restore that peace are the only bots that make sense: Megatron, Soundwave, and Starscream!
Story
After a bit of a hiatus, we return to you with a review for the just released IDW Transformers #14, part of the Bold New Era. And as for how that Bold New Era is doing, keep reading below! And for more information on this issue, you can check out our database entry!
So far, the Bold New Era has been heavy on the dialogue, but not so heavy on the story or intrigue. If anything, that has been the weakness of the Bold New Era to date, not a lot happening for the page space. The story has been slow going, and every time we get something that seems intriguing, it stalls out.
But after the Rubble of issue 5 and the return of Sentinel Prime to Cybertron, it seems the story might finally be making some ground. While it still wasn't very deep, there was some excitement to the story, it felt like there were more risks and consequences. We also learned some things about a few characters and also got to see some new ones. Motivations that were seemingly not there or unclear have focused in some, and we got some more character development, though we still don't really have many highly intriguing characters.
I liked the inclusion of Starscream in this issue, and he proved to be a welcome addition, bringing to the table some of the traits described in the paragraph above. I also think it was important for Orion Pax to be entirely absent and Megatron to only briefly show up. Both characters are very important Transformers characters, but so far have proven to be more attention vacuums than intriguing characters. It was good to have a good sized cast represented here without them with a chance to shine on their own, and Starscream, Soundwave, and to a lesser extent Sideswipe, Kup, Landmine, and Geomotus.
On another note, the inclusion of Strongarm alongside Sideswipe in this issue is a continued sign of the thing I so far like most in this comic: the variety of the characters showing up. Sure it has a lot of G1/Siege going on, but non-G1 characters showing up and referencing things outside of previous G1 stories is refreshing. I enjoy inclusions such as this, and want a little bit more of those characters and story too. The comic has showed a cast with variety, it just needs to flex that diversity a bit more.
Art
Art for this issue is split between Anna Malkova and Bethany Mcguire-Smith on lines, Joana Lafuente on colors, and Tom B. Long on letters. The art for the series so far has been a bit loose and all over the place in terms of quality, but outside of issue 13, I feel this is the best comic issue in terms of artistic consistency. While there were some questionable shapes thrown during this issue (Nautica being a primary offender compared to her prior appearances), the art overall was good quality, the two line artists had similar styles that allowed for a smooth transition between the artists, and the facial expressions were very well done in this issue.
The colors matched up with the line art pretty dang good as well, giving you a good sense of what time it is on Cybertron, and it also helped give the book some depth, showing shadows and sun glistening off of the lined surfaces. It was very pleasing to look at. The glowing optics were also a highlight in terms of colors.
The lettering is once more of good quality, and helps compliment the art while not getting in the way. I also enjoyed the word effects for all the different types of action happening throughout the issue, it helped augment the lines and colors of the different panels.
Conclusion
Overall, I would argue that this is the best overall chapter of the Bold New Era so far. We had a good first issue that helped set things up, but after that, there haven't been many highlights, and the ones that have happened have had a bit too much dead space between them to truly have a impact. If issue 14 had come earlier, such as being issue 8 instead of 14, I feel like the story would be progressing better and more coherently. The story needs better pacing and some more intrigue to it. We don't necessarily need to be told everything, let stuff happen in the background. Speech and walking heads can get in the way.
On those notes, issue 14 seems to be a step in the right direction. No real depth, nothing really to pick up with a 2nd read, but it was intriguing, it had some depth to it, and it made you want to actually read through it again. If we can actually keep this tempo up, the story will progress and we will start having some more depth and more enjoyment for the readers.

If I put this issue in a vaccuum it was pretty entertaining. Overall it isn't in a vaccuum though, so my confusion on why this is all happening to this degree dampens the experience. This is turning into Char's Counterattack where the motivations are all explained but the actions based on them take such a leap that I have a hard time believing the characters.
Also still find the dialogue too stiff and not character driven, for the most part. The Nautica, Prowl and Road Rage scene would be an exception where that was done better.
Posted by Rodimus Prime on November 7th, 2019 @ 12:36pm CST
I pretty much gave up on this book, but I still read the reviews out of morbid curiosity. Maybe eventually it'll pick up.

Not strange at all! Galaxies has Transformers doing Transformers things, has a tight cast, is developing its characters and has some great hooks (no pun intended) for its plot which has just enough layers and connections to the outside universe to be intriguing.Big Grim wrote:I've stuck with the ongoing this long but it's really starting to test me.

The ongoing has robots cosplaying as Transformers speaking in platitudes while walking up and down stairs. Sometimes they shoot at one another now.

Wow. You are bang on the money mate! The ongoing is boring with extra helpings of dull.
We're getting interesting character development of the Constructicons AND Insecticons and we're only 2 issues in.

I really hope that doesn't mean what I think it means.
This book has accomplished so little. There are parts i like, but they are not consecutive and are so spread out! I really hate to say it, but look at what other continuities did in a 16 issue time frame. This book is slow, meandering, and all over the map. It needs focus

As we can see, Pitre-Durocher knocks it out of the park again, with a gorgeous cover featuring Blast Off and Cosmos set against a backdrop of Cybertron in orbit.
Set to be released on February 12th, this cover can be picked up at your local comic shop, providing they've ordered enough copies to have this cover shipped to them (that's where the incentive part comes in).

We do need to catch up a bit, no reviews for the past few has a lot to do with my schedule (see: real job, this is a volunteer gig) and if it's down to time for a Twincast episode or a comics review, the podcast wins. They'll resume for the "main" ongoing hopefully soon, or when we get some more volunteers for site staff that would like to give it a shot.Big Grim wrote:I quit it a couple of issues ago. Forgot it existed, I've seen so little news on it. I assume the reviews stopped?
Reviews for one-shots, Galaxies and other misc stuff may be expected on a more-or-less normal schedule, the releases have just been very sparse lately.
