This is Volume 11 of the Chinese edition of the Marvel Transformers Generation 1 comics published by New Star Press in 2017. The series re-masters, re-colors, and fully translates into Chinese the 80 issues of the main American Transformers series published by Marvel between September 1984 and July 1991, with each volume corresponding to several installments originally serialized in Marvel's issues. This volume continues the story of the first ten: it collects issue 11, "Brainstorm!" and the adjacent installments—young Buster Witwicky has inherited the power of the Creation Matrix from Optimus Prime and can control machines with his mind, but dares not tell his father Sparkplug the truth; Shockwave, leader of the Decepticons, sends Laserbeak to hunt Buster down in order to trace the source of this power and uses the mindless Skyfire as his enforcer, while the Autobots must reach the boy first. The volume continues the early G1 comics' dual structure of "human boy plus robot war," and familiar faces such as Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Bluestreak, and Jazz appear along the way. This summary is based on publicly available sources for the plot of original issue 11; for the exact contents and page count of the Chinese volume, please refer to the physical copy in hand.Editor's review
如果你对变形金刚的印象来自动画或电影，那这套漫威元祖漫画会带来另一种体验：故事里那个叫巴斯特的普通高中生，拿到创世矩阵的力量后只想瞒住身边的人，而震荡波却已经顺着线索追到了小镇。孩之宝和漫威1984年的这次合作，本来只是为了卖玩具，却意外地给三百多个角色写下了名字、能力和性格，威震天这个名字就是编剧鲍勃·步狄安斯基想出来的。新星出版社这一版把当年印刷粗糙的原稿重新制版、重新上色，还由太阳风@赛联阵逐格翻译，对熟悉台词的老读者和第一次翻开的新读者来说，都很友好。第11册正处在早期故事的关键转折处，读这一册最好顺着前三册一路读下来，因为每个人物出场时都接着上一册的线，单独翻开可能少一点味道。Who it's for
A good fit for
- 看过G1动画或真人电影、想补完元祖漫画背景的变形金刚爱好者
- 喜欢80年代美式漫画画风与叙事节奏的欧美漫画读者
- 收藏成套改编漫画，并打算按册追读的读者
- 对“机器与人类少年共同成长”这类故事感兴趣的青少年读者
Not a good fit for
- 期待独立完整故事、不愿按系列顺序阅读的读者
- 偏好现代精细画风、对老漫画网点与配色敏感的人
- 只看过电影、希望看到电影剧情改编的普通观众
Reading tips
- 建议先读完前几册再读本册，创世矩阵、巴斯特的能力来历都建立在之前的剧情之上。
- 留意每回开头的时间标注，漫威原刊按月份推进，读起来更容易理清事件先后。
- 把汽车人战力和人类视角对照着读，这是G1早期漫画最鲜明的叙事特色。
- 读完可以回头查看人物表，早期登场的角色很多，之后会成为整个系列的主干。

FAQ
这本是漫威原版第11期吗？
不完全等同。新星版《变形金刚》是按中文册数分卷的合集，一册收录原版刊物的若干回；本册为整套第11册，内容对应漫威原刊早期连载，并非严格意义上的原版第11期单行本。能单独读第11册吗？
可以读，但会缺一部分上下文。创世矩阵、巴斯特的能力以及震荡波的计划都在前几册里铺开，建议按顺序阅读体验更完整。这套书收录了多少内容？
新星出版社这一版收录了漫威1984年9月至1991年7月美国版正传共80集故事，经电脑重新制版与重新上色后译成中文，整体为多册套装出版。译者是谁？
