Transformers Animated Arrival 2: I tell you, the ever lengthening titles of some comics are really getting irksome. In contrast to the title of this book, the plot is actually very simple, overly simple in fact. The core concept, superhero as celebrity, is worth a bit more thought than it is given here. Still, the series is accessible for new readers. There is a thematically consistent Starscream back-up, that seems to tie-in with an episode of the cartoon. I am sure that there are at least a few "moving picture" purists who will complain about this.
Grade: B/C This is really just for completists or parents of small children.

Completist.
But, it beats the 18 year curse.
