    I was wondering if any of the Botcon comics had been reprinted in TPB form. If yes, where can purchase them from?

    The closest you'll come to a trade is gettting the Balancing Act Trade that compiled the first year or two of the club comic. Most of the older comics and stories are either a) online in some capacity or b) text written and exclusive to the Transformers Collectors Club. The last few years there have been general releases of the Botcon Exclusive comic that came with Primus packages although it did have a different cover. Perhaps you could start looking there.

    Balancing Act trade? Where can I get this?

    Since I'm here let me ask a another question...... are the stories from the Botcon comic continued in the club comic?

    Sorry about the noob questions but I'm just very new to these comics. Damn botcon exclusive toys have got me interested in these stories....especially the Shattered Glass universe...

    i'll answer this here too, the club comic is one continuous story, but these issues are stand alone. however, they do tie in to things that happen in the club comic. so you can read these, and understand what's happening, but reading the club comic will enhance the stories more.

    that's they only store i've seen that has the TPB, but i can check my store when i go in to get my books today...

    i'd join now, and get heatwave for free...then you can go back and buy the other limbs...i love my club figures, and i really enjoy the magazine. 40 bucks a year isn't a huge deal for me, so i think its worth it...and even more worth it when you can buy the botcon toys without going to botcon...

    and i'll try to hit the PO this weekend so i can figure out a total for you man...hope you enjoy the stories...
