Pick Your Pickle and Prepare for Puns: Pickleball's Board Game Just Launched. A fast, fun, irreverent board game that celebrates the joy of Pickleball. Fans of silly puns, pickles, and fast-paced games alike have a new game to add to their list of must-haves: HotShot Pickleball. This delightful card-drawing board game is quick to learn and gives a surprising amount of opportunity to lightly strategize as you race to the ball and attempt to hit it back over the net to your opponent. The debut release from indie studio Midnight Trading Co., HotShot Pickleball was made while game designer Robert Gelb was recovering from an Achilles injury sustained, ironically, by playing Pickleball. For those who haven’t heard of pickleball, it's the fastest-growing sport in the world, with over 32 million players last year. HotShot Pickleball is a lively, family-friendly game that combines the fun of the sport with a cast of quirky, pickle-themed characters like Stew Cumber, Kim Chee, and Corni...

The Transformers: Regeneration One #86 - Natural Selection Part One; Dark Reign Review

The Transformers: Regeneration One #86 Review


The Transformers: Regeneration One #86 Cover
DARK REIGN! The fallout from the devastation on Earth ripples outwards, all the way to Nebulos, where GRIMLOCK faces his own darkest demons and a fateful choice that may cost him his very Spark. The dark reign of SCORPONOK begins here, and nothing will ever be the same again!

Cover/Solicit - 3/5

- Would I pick-up the comic based on the solicit/cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the solicit/cover portray what happens in the issue?

Art - 3/5

- Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance?

Colors/Ink/Lettering - 4/5

- Does the work blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening? Can I easily read the lettering?

Layout/Flow - 4/5

- Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged?

Story - 4/5

- Weighted Triple. How well did the issue further develop the current story? How well did the issue further develop the characters? Did I enjoy reading the issue?




Verdict - 3.7

- Seeing the Dinobots on the cover and I was excited for this issue, my only problem with the cover is it seems off-centered like there should be more, maybe a fold-out. It if was a double cover with the last issue or the next it would make a little more sense but it's not. Like The Transformers: Regeneration One #85 - Loose Ends; Part 5; One Will Fall! I'm still not a fan of the art, this time not for the 80s feel but for some reason everyone looked elongated. I double checked with IDW's preview on Seibertron.com and it's the same way. The issue concentrates on Grimlock and Scorponok and the Autobots being destroyed due to Grimlock's actions using Nucleon to revive them in the Marvel's original The Transformers #70. We also get to see the outcome of last issue's battle with Megatron, and Buster commanding Optimus and the Autobots to leave earth. This issue was a great read, and is giving me more faith in this title after the last story arc let me down.

Purchase The Transformers: Regeneration One #86 on Amazon
