Start by not being so gay. Who likes Transformer comics? 9 year olds on the 1980s?
Joseph Collins
Don't. They're shit.
Benjamin White
don´t read anything released in the last 6 years

Depends.
Transformers is an IP with a bunch of different universes, some being fairly long and some fairly short.
The most important question is what kind of comic do you want to read?
>Ties into the original cartoon loosely, continues past it when it was canceled
>Came before the original cartoon and was its own thing, has ideas that would inspire parts of it
>90’s EXXXXTREME! (Requires knowledge of the cartoon)
>Beast Wars (far future continuation of the original cartoon, functions as an improved version of the Beast Wars cartoon)
>Is its own thing and did new things, some worked and have been used by most things since then, and some didn’t and are forgotten
>Batshit insane, references all continuity and is based on the Japanese version of the original cartoon
>Hunger Games/Battle Royale
>Long-running, modern, and has an ending
>Currently being released
If you have a hard time deciding, look up Chris McFeely on youtube. His series “The Basics” are like simplified versions of the Transformers wiki with lots of visual aids, and are pretty good.

I only knew Beast Wars and a small amount of G1 from my childhood, and it was a convenient way to get a working knowledge of it all without losing a few days on the wiki clicking from one article to the next.

Just a heads up if you plan on reading the IDW comics, they're extremely preachy and up their own ass with LGBTQ politics.
