Revisitation 5: Deeper Than Down.

This week, Verity goes to a literal and figurative dark place, Bumblebee is kind of gay and the second worst Mr Jolly (after Dom Jolly) appears.

Yeah, this was one of the better issues. I’m not quite as sold on Verity as you are - in fact I remember reading this the first time and wondering why, of all the human characters, the most emotionally ‘flaky’ one of the three was the Girl One...

I definitely would have agreed with you on previous reads.

Maybe it's just that is she is the only one with any real personality.

Pretty much enjoyed this one. Whilst by this point I have no recollection of how I found the issue first time around, it was a fun read with some effective bits. The fights up top are really well done, and as you mention the Bumblee action is beautifully rendered and, I would argue, not bettered to this day. (Unless we find something else that Su did that tops this a few issues down the line.) The exploration of the Decepticon base is also suitably creepy, and Megatron's introduction begins to spell out the idea that he's definitelt a Big Bad, capital letters and all. It continues to be a good introduction to this re-imagined world, and I'm liking it.
