This sounds great! Does anyone have Scribd already and can say what Transformers content is available? I'm curious how recent their latest issues would be. Marvel Unlimited seems to have a six-month wait before new comics can be read through their pay-per month service.

MTME up to issue 35
RID up to issue 34

all four Windblades

1st issue of Drift empire of stone

looks like only one issue of TF v GI Joe

Looks like a healthy selection of old stuff as well. I've only just subbed for the free month, so I will dig in deeper once I drop the app on my tablet.

I'm an android reader only and their app is clunky at best. It's very hard to find the issues you are looking for. The PC version is slightly better.

To be fair they do have a ton of content, but not what I'm looking for. They are missing the exact link to my chain: MTMTE & RID #23.

Comixology is the better experience. It could be that I'm spoiled by the guided view.

I'll probably check out some of the other TF comics until my free month is up. Who knows, maybe I'll find something new to read that I wouldn't have tried before.
