IDW Kids Line Wide 50% Sale on ComiXology.com

Had limited funds so I ended up just going with Megatron Origins and the Dark Cybertron spotlights.
Only read the latter so far. Liked em, though it felt odd just how connected they all were to each other. A bit too "what a coinc-y-dink" to me, but yeah, still good.

Which spotlights would you guys think are really worthwhile?

As far as comics go I have lsotw, sotw, megs origin, alh, autocrasy, as well as everything idw related since the reboot as rid and mtmte. Anything I didn't mention that is really good?

Thanks! I just search spotlight dark cybertron to find them?

If you haven't gotten it, "Chaos Theory" (#22-23 of the old ongoing series)

Despite being in the middle of a series, these two are mostly flashbacks and Megatron and Optimus having a heart-to-heart discussion. They're written by James Roberts, and MTMTE naturally references them quite a bit.

Well, considering that it is just about every IDW Transformers comic... that'd take quite a bit of searching.


By the by, since I'm here; suppose I can make my best recommendations from the furman era

Spotlight: Shockwave
Spotlight: Sixshot
Spotlight: Blaster
Maximum Dinobots

Maximum Dinobots I feel is just the most enjoyable of the main ongoing series Furman had going, while the three Spotlights I've picked are what are in my opinion the best of all three types of Spotlights. Shockwave ties directly into the main story and gives huge context on what's going on; Sixshot expands on one of the characters in the main story and gives extra context; Blaster has nothing at all to do with the main story but attempts to use the universe set up to provide just a damn good story - and succeeds. All of them manage to be great stories really.

Very kind. Makes sense too; a lot of Revolution stuff is rooted in Shockwave's machinations with his ores, which the Spotlight shows best.
