The Transformers #2

In "Things Fall Apart - Part 1: 'New Arrivals, Old Encounters'," the Autobots face a rift in their mission as Hot Rod leads a faction determined to return to Cybertron and abandon Earth, while Optimus Prime remains imprisoned after his surrender. Meanwhile, Major Witwicky takes a reckless joyride with the deactivated Breakdown, and the arrival of Ultra Magnus coincides with Swindle and other Decepticons seeking their own path back home. Written by Mike Costa and illustrated by Don Figueroa, with colors by J. Brown and letters by Chris Mowry, this pivotal issue sees the Autobots' unity tested as new alliances and old grudges surface—cover by Don Figueroa.
