(Ironically enough, "attack" is spelled right on the title page but not
the hand-drawn cover.)

[First page: Illustration of Decepticon HQ, probably copied from one of the
hardcover story books.]
At Decepticon Headquarters Megitron said, "Soundwave, send the Constructions
to defeat the Autobots. "As you wish," said Soundwave.
Meanwhile at the Ark, Optimus Prime said, "We're having a meeting."
[Second page: Illustration of oddly-colored Ratchet standing at a computer
console with dinosaur image on the screen.]
After the meeting, they set the plan. "This should do it," said Autobot
medical Ratchet.
"Like they say on Earth, we keep on licking, but keep on ticking," said
Jazz.
[?!]
[Third page: Illustration of Devastator combining before Sunstreaker's
eyes.]
While the Constructicons were looking for the Autobots, suddenly 5 dinosaurs
came out.
"Transform!" said Long Haul.
"Nothing can stand the might of Devastador," said Devastador.
[Fourth page: Picture of Grimlock in dinosaur skin covering, but it's being
blasted off from a laser beam shot from above.]
As he shot Tyrannosaurus Rex, suddenly out came Autobot Grimlock! Then out
came the other Autobots! Out of the woods came the Decepticons.
[Fifth page: Picture of Optimus shooting up at Buzzsaw, blasting his head
clear off.]
"You sure blew it, Ratchet,"said Wheeljack.
"Here we go again," said Bumble Bee.
Then Optimas Prime shot Buzzsaw right in the eye!
[And that's the end of it. The last page has been torn out. :/ Sad,
really.]

For example:
Unicron vs. The Death Star
by Brax Cardigan
Page One: Illustration of the Death Star and Unicron
Page Two: The Death Star fired on Unicron.
Page Three: Six-year-old drawing of Unicron transforming, the Death Star firing
on Unicron.
Page Four: Unicron says, "NOOOOO!!!"
Page Five: Crappily colored drawing of robot mode Unicron, punching the Death
Star
Page Six: "Evacuate!" yells Darth Vader.
Page Seven: Lousy drawing of Unicron doing a victory dance.
Page Eight: "And now, for Cybertron!"
THE END
