I was pretty much in agreement until here, in particular the "did TF comic have storylines?" part -- the mythology established by the comics was even more rich and involved than GI Joe's! Especially when you look at Simon Furman's stuff; things that originated in the comics are still affecting the mythologies of modern incarnations of the brand!
I have mixed feelings towards the live-action movie. I got a bit annoyed by the Autobots being portrayed as giant mechanical clown-monkeys...
