Transformers: Aspects of Evil is the first black and white trade paperback in Titan Books' series of Marvel UK reprints. It covers Rodimus Prime's future struggles against Unicron's all-pervading evil, alongside Deathbringer (which is referenced in the main US Marvel Comics continuity) and a selection of stories set on (then) present-day Cybertron.

Notes

• This volume covers some of the UK tales from issue #223 to #247.
• The stories in these TPBs are placed into themes rather than as a chronological collection of the UK tales as they were published and the page count inevitably means some of the collections are more coherent than others.
• Aside from those from the Marvel UK future timeline, all of these stories fit within the Marvel US continuity. "Deathbringer" is even referenced in "Dark Creation".
• There are no changes from the original prints so the teaser at the end of one story/arc usually doesn't relate to the next story in the book. For instance, the "Aspects of Evil" arc ends with 'Next: Doubledealer', only to be followed by The "Void".
• The small size of the books (7½ by 5 inches—less than half the original A4 format) means that some of the fine detail is lost.
