TRANSFORMERS VINTAGE #4 COMIC BOOK.
The ORIGINAL TRANSFORMERS Comic Book that was published by Marvel Comics in the eighties!
In this issue: the search for the Dinobots.
On a faraway world in the Alpha Centauri system, there existed a world known as Cybertron. There, through a strange process of carbon-bonding, a race of mechanical beings called Autobots evolved, eventually transforming their world into a paradise.
But one group, the Decepticons, were not content with their peaceful life, and launched a deadly war for control of Cybertron. After a terrible global conflict, the Decepticons were on the verge of total defeat when they changed plans suddenly and fled to Earth. There they disguised themselves in other forms, such as cars and planes. But at a moment’s notice, they could once again transform into terrible machines of destruction. To save Earth from their ravages, the Autobots were also forced to come to Earth to battle their age-old enemy.
The Transformers derived from a popular line of toys.
For a comic book based on a line of toys, The Transformers retained its popularity for a remarkable length of time. The comic’s initial run lasted for over seven years—eighty issues in all. In that time, the heroes—a team of mechanical beings called the Autobots—waged a desperate war against the evil transformers known as the Decepticons, led by the dreaded Megatron.

In-fighting among the Autobots at the revelation that "Sparkplug" helped the Decepticons results in "Sparkplug" collapsing from a heart attack. Ratchet and Buster rush him to the local hospital.
In the meantime, Megatron emerges from his headquarters to challenge the military might of the army and shrugs off their most concentrated assault, leaving Earth helpless against the Decepticons.
In the Ark, Optimus and Huffer discuss options for defeating the Decepticons, eventually settling on a search for the Dinobots, five autobots re-created by the Ark in the form of the planet's then-dominant life forms who fought the Decepticon Shockwave millions of years ago. A probe is dispatched to find the Dinobots.
Now dangerously low on energy, Optimus Prime concocts a plan that will infuse himself and four other Autobots with the remaining power reserves from the other Autobots.
Megatron leads a direct assault on the Ark, finding himself facing five fully-powered Autobots instead of the masses he had expected. As the battle royale begins, the probe dispatched to discover the Dinobots disturbs something beneath the surface of the planet.
