This week, it's a sad moment as the American series longest serving artist bows out.

By bending backwards so it looks as if his back is going to break and pointing in the air.

Plus, Cyclonus fails to pass the Galvatron test. But then neither does Galvatron. Fall hook line and sinker for my look at ISSUE 301!

It's the calm before the storm this week, as the iconic Icepick meets his end; Galvatron can't let go of his ex and Lisa and Slog battle it out for the title of best new character.

Plus, the end of Dreadwind and pizza!

All in my look at ISSUE 299.

Next week of course, is issue 300. So keep your halfshell on for a special Addendum, plus various bits of silly fun on Twitter (where I hope you all follow InflatableDalek). Plus, a special announcement about the future of Transformation!
