Coelocanth: Anyone know if the Transformers comics in the lowest and BTA tiers are complete storylines? Or, for that matter, what about the ones in the $15 or higher tier? I think my kids might like these, but I'm not particularly interested if they're not complete storylines.
I can't speak for the quality of the lowest tier, but I'll point out the info humble bundle provides.
"*Note: Issues #3 and #9 are intentionally omitted due to inclusion of non-Hasbro characters in the original comics."
I don't know how important those issues are, story wise, but that may or may not bug the completionist in you.
As for the rest, "All Hail Megatron" and "Autocracy" appear to be complete.

The spotlights are supposed to all be one offs. Maybe more will be added later? (I have no idea.)

The "More Than Meets the Eye" and "Robots in Disguise" are harder to tell. The first two volumes are apparently complete. (No missing issues.) However there are three more volumes for each series that aren't included here. I don't know how the story leaves off from volume 2 to 3.

This chronological order might help as well:

I hope that helps answer your question, it's the info I came up with while researching the offer for myself.
