Is there a good, complete exegesis of the Qur'an available in English? I'd like something similar to al-Mizan that touches on the philosophical aspects of the verses as well. Thanks.

the only good shia tafseer in english ur gonna get is that of S V Mir Ahmad Ali / Agha Mirza Mahdi Pooya

hope this helps.

http://www.al-mizan.org is good (It is Al-Mizan). I did not find another tafseer that is good.

Thanks for the info, brothers. I think there'a dire need to translate something like Tafseer-e-Namoona into English.

As salamualaikum,

I came across this question although it is very out dated and I am sure that all of you have found your answers.  Still, I must provide an answer albeit late.

The Tafirs Enlightened commentary, Al-Mizan and The Tafsir of Imam Hasan Askari (عليه السلام) are all plenty to keep us busy but yes Tafsir AlAyyashi and Namooneh (Namoona ("The Ideal Ccommentary") are indeed needed to be translated into English.
