Transformers: Best of the Rarities is a one-shot reprint comic published by IDW Publishing. Part of a larger "Best of" line spanning multiple IDW licensed properties, the book collects various stories, largely from Marvel UK.
Overview
Best of the Rarities contains some hard-to-find Transformers stories from the series’ almost 40-year history and some never-before-reprinted material from the U.S. and the UK. Like the other books in the IDW "Best of" line, the collection features new cover art by James Biggie.
