Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus

Not really.   I mean, I wanted it to be.   Spike.   In an asylum.   That just sounded... fun.   Even with a soul, there were plenty of good ways for this to go.   It was referenced in another volume and I wanted to see what that was about. 

Or I thought I did.  I just wasn't that into this.   Spike didn't feel super in character and this felt a bit dragged out by the end.   Then again, I'm in a flighty reading mood, where I've been flipping from one book to another today.   So maybe it's just me. 

Whatever the reason, I couldn't really get into this.   I do love some of the characters they introduced here - characters I've seen, and loved, from other volumes - but it didn't make up for the lagging pace of the plot.  

Might read something in paper and see if that focuses me at all.
