==Notes==
[[Image:Delbostarscreamears.jpg|right|thumb|Van Gogh-Bot.]]

* [[Buenos Aires]], Argentina, was one of three [[Earth]] cities that the [[Underbase]]-enhanced super-[[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] chose to destroy at the climax of the [[Underbase Saga]]. This seemingly random choice (the other two cities, New York and Tokyo, are two of the most populous on Earth, but Buenos Aires is far from #3) was actually a nod to José Delbo’s birthplace.

* Delbo was often ''very'' literal with his translations of the Transformers characters, occasionally copying their appearance and pose directly from their [[Transformers Universe (Marvel comic)|''Transformers Universe'']] [[character model|profile art]]. Sometimes this backfired on him. In the original profile art, [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream’s]] right “ear” is blocked from view by his shoulder intake. Delbo consistently interpreted this as Starscream having only one “ear.”

* He also liked to [[:Image:CerebrosG1-everyCerebrosappearanceever.jpg|reuse his own compositions]] a lot, though to his credit they were always completely redrawn.
