    No, IDW Furmanverse is good but the G1 Marvelverse (particularly the Furman part) is better.

    wow, so many. I will give you a few:

    Dinobot Hunt


    Target: 2006

    Space Pirates

    Time Wars


    Stories from here onwards have proven to be very influential in building TF mythos even to this day:

    Primal Scream

    Matrix Quest


    All Fall Down

    End of the Road

    Marvel Furmanverse is Transformers for me. Growing up the cartoon paled in comparison to the comics, they were the underpinning real stories, the deeper examinations and fleshing out of everything great about Transformers.

    I second those recommened texts above, great reading, yes a little dated and you need to look past some of the art but its just quality.

    1980s comics have nostaglia going for them, but I believe that of printed fiction since 2000, the IDW Furmanverse has been the best.

    Not to me

    Comics: Dreamwave are the best so far, art is good stories are good

    Cartoon: G1 cartoonl, i dont judge it from a grown up perspective like y'all. It aint true that every episode ends with them laughing, it happens like thrice

    maybe in 2010 there will be a new series that will blow our socks off!

    I have no doubts that Furman's Marvel UK and US G1 work, Beast Wars, Masterforce and Animated are all better than the IDW Furmanverse.

    yeah i second that, i read the old G1 generation comics and there pretty good (characters exploration and stories), compared to the recent stuff after Dreamwave (Inflitration - onwards) which don't do much for the casual comic book reader , apart from Megatron origins and Stormbringer which were brilliant
