Hello there guys,

im really new to buying comic etc, and was browsing through earlier and came across the above mentioned edition.

My only question is....

take a look here http://store.idwpublishing.com/advanced ... s+animated

The one at the bottom, Transformers: The Animated Movie TPB

is that All the 4 issues in one? or am i mistaken? what does TPB mean etc

please explain x_x so confused. lol.

If it is all 4 in one, i think i might buy it, and i found what i believe to be the same product here http://www.amazon.co.uk/Transformers-An ... 619&sr=8-1

I am from the UK, so thats a link to amazon.co.uk's listing of it, that IS the same one right?

Also any other you could highly recommend buying?

TPB means "Trade paperback," which is a term that refers to a book which collects various issues of a comic. So, yes, this is a collection of all four issues.

It looks like the complete 4 issue collection to me. I have the four separate issues and the one cover just looks different with the barcode difference and all, on the TPBs the code is usually on the back or inside back cover.

Reguardless of my ramblings the artwork is exquistite.

The TPB of the Animated Movie isn't accurate to the release issue. The first issue, which had many bloopers with regard to character dialogue boxes, was fixed, and three new pages were added that (rather blandly) explain what the later Season 2 characters were up to during the Autobot City battle.
