Transformers: The Manga, Vol. 3, 3

Originally serialized in Japan's TV Magazine, these classic stories from the Generation 1 era of Transformers are now available in English for the first time!

The Autobots and the Decepticons have been locked in a brutal civil war for eons, and now their battle has come to Earth! The Autobots seek peace and coexistence, while the Decepticons seek power and control. Earth and its populace are caught in the middle as these mighty factions go head-to-head. Transformers took the world by storm shortly after their debut, and these previously uncollected stories were a vital part of that takeover!

The final volume of Transformers: The Manga is here! This deluxe volume collects three classic stories and a beautiful art gallery. "Victory" is the tale of the legendary battle between Starsaber and Deszaras. In "Zone," the Nine Great Generals run wild. And in "The Battle Stars," Super Megatron attempts to feed on planet Earth, but Optimus Prime stands in his way!
