Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 6 Up–Fallen Star begins slowly and never really takes off. Much like the cartoon, this digest-sized comic includes themes seen frequently in sci-fi comics, such as deception and good vs. evil. The problem with the story is that the characters just dont have the mystery and depth of comic-book heroes, and the story doesnt have anything unique to say as a result of it. The black-and-white illustrations lack energy; they make the scenes look as dull as the story. Its been 20 years since Transformers were first introduced, and this book proves theyve aged poorly over time.–Scott La Counte, Anaheim Public Library, CA

Digest Transformers line for the serious Transformers collectors, Mar 10 2006
By Jeremy Hartwick "Transformers fan and a fathe... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Transformers: Earthforce (Paperback)
Like the other titles in Titan's Digest Size Transformers line, Earthoforce is a book I'd reccomend only to someone who's immersed themselves in the TF mythos. Simon Furman delivers his usual splendid writing, and the art is certainly on par with other Transformers comics of the era. Personally, I enjoyed it, but not as much as some of the other Digest titles.

Transformers Lite, Mar 9 2006
By Justin R. Lawfer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Transformers: Earthforce (Paperback)
Of the four Titan b&w collections released thus far, this one is the most humorous and light-hearted. Most of the stories aren't too elaborate, as the writers and artists weren't sure when the Transformers comic would be ending, so what we have here are numerous single-issue or two-issue stories, which is fine in that it makes it easier for someone to read them without a whole lot of knowledge of the other plots that were running through the series. The emphasis of these stories is focused on the classic characters (i.e. Prowl, Grimlock, Megatron, Soundwave, etc.) who had lost the limelight in the U.S. series to various "master" and pretender characters. There is plenty of action and verbal wit, and we get to see Grimlock and Powermaster Optimus Prime duke it out!
The best quote of this collection comes when Wheeljack and Prowl scale a plateau to investigate Megatron's latest scheme:
Prowl: Nnf! Should find the answer up here.
Wheeljack: Big deal! Probably some microheadtargetmaster with a pretender shell!
Listmania!
