The third of Titan Books' trade paperbacks reprinting black and white Marvel UK stories, Transformers: Fallen Star covers events surrounding the resurrection of the Decepticons Starscream and Megatron (which took place in the main US continuity). It then moves on to the Earthforce timeline, to chart the Decepticon civil war and the machinations of Megatron, Shockwave, Starscream and Soundwave.

Notes

The black and white Titan TPB digests contain a collection of UK stories from the post-Time Wars era. These are placed into themes rather than been a chronological collection of the UK tales as they were published. This volume covers some of the UK tales from issue #215 to #286. The page count inevitably means some of the TPB collections are more coherent than others. Some of these stories sit well within the wider Marvel continuity, some are in the Earthforce continuity while some are from the Marvel UK future timeline. 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 Race with the Devel arc ends with 'Next: Survivors', only to be followed by Fallen Star. Also 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.
