The Transformers Comic Book Index - Marvel Comics

The Transformers comic book was published by Marvel Comics from 1984 to 1991. Originally it was designed as a limited series, published bi-monthly and intended to end with the fourth issue, but at the end of the limited series Marvel changed it into an ongoing, monthly comic book. It kept going for seven years and 80 issues, until it was finally cancelled in 1991.

Other than the main Transformers book, Marvel published several other Transformers-related books during these seven years: a three-issue adaptation of Transformers: The Movie (1986); a four-issue crossover with G.I. Joe, called G.I. Joe and the Transformers (1986); a four-issue book with character profiles, called Transformers: Universe (1986); a four-issue limited series starring the Headmasters (1987).
They also reprinted some of the material in an 11-issue series called Transformers: Digest (years unknown), and two trade paperbacks (Transformers: Universe, 1987, and Transformers vs G.I. Joe, 1993)

In 1993 the Transformers guest-starred in issues #138-142 of the G.I. Joe comic book, before their own comic book was revived as Transformers: Generation 2. The latter book lasted for 12 issues before it was cancelled in 1994.
