Right... this is going to sound like sacrilege to some, but I am just getting started with reading the IDW run of the comics.

So Far I have bought both of the Humble Bundle deals to date which is quite a lot of reading. What I don't have is any of the earlier stuff and, more to the point, have no idea what I should be tracking down!

From the Comixology offer I see I don't have Last stand of the Wreckers or Monstrosity... I think.

anyone able to give me some pointers? Va'al? Anyone?

I wish someone would post this same chronology ... only taking into account the big collections. Like if I wanted to buy the entire run digitally, what would I need to get. Hmmmm.

Ah well. At least THIS list is up. :APPLAUSE:

A lot of these issues were in the first Humble Bundle, but Monstrosity and Last Stand of the Wreckers weren't. I've heard good things about LSOTW in particular, so I might pick that up. Anybody want to convince me to get Monstrosity?

No. It looks terrible and reads terribly. It shows some promise here and there, especially in the beginning, but just turns bad and ends disappointingly.
It's also weird, Kup shows up, is referred to and portrayed as a young bot, while Ironhide, Hot Rod and co are around being pretty much the same as we know them today. So yeah, only Kup seems to age.
