10 Best Transformers Comics Every Fan Must Read
8. The Matrix Quest
The Transformers Marvel comics are generally considered must reads for any fan. In particular, the Simon Furman penned issues are remembered extremely fondly, such was the quality of storytelling and the reception from fans.
Among the collection of amazingly put together stories, the Matrix Quest, running from #62 to #66, stands out as the perfect combination of individual exclusivity and retaining the classic Transformers flavor.
Revolving around Unicron and his rampage across the galaxy, the story here sees Optimus dispatch his trusted soldiers to different parts of the cosmos in order to put a stop to the destruction. Their task was to seek out something called the Matrix of Leadership, as it was their only hope of stopping Unicron.
What makes these comics truly unique, though, is that each one served as a tribute to some other legendary pop culture icon. For example, #63 is a homage to classic Western movies, #64 contains Moby Dick references, and so on and so forth.
