			"Page 5: Jazz's colors are corrected as best they can be, changing him from incorrect yellow to white and blue."

			The character that was recolored is Prowl not Jazz, so I corrected it, if its ok.

			:That's not Prowl. Prowl's legs twist around in robot mode, and the detailing is much closer to Jazz; it's just that Jazz has been incorrectly drawn with two shoulder missiles. [[User:Escargon\|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon\|talk]]) 13:18, 31 August 2020 (EDT)

	:::Might have something on this - according to the text in the recent Complete UK TPB (I don't have it, this is second-hand info) the two-page spread was instead used as a poster in #2, with the black-backed logo slapped over the top-left. My copy of #2 is missing the centre pages, which was where posters went in the first few issues (I'm the fella who did the TF Archive comic guide, a long time ago, and I didn't mean to state that the pages were cut ''quite'' so unilaterally), and frustratingly the TPB is missing an image of the poster. Not to doubt Roberts' word, but I'd love to hear from someone, anyone who has a copy of #2 with the poster actually in there for rock-solid confirmation. It makes sense when you think about it, though - holding it over for months until the first annual is daft when it would have taken up two handy pages in the comic.

	Re: the Note about the two-page Autobot introduction spread. Are you sure? I have (sadly detached from its parent comic) this two-page spread in UK format. I'd have to actually find it to determine what's on the back, but the edges have, as I recall, a thick red border, and I never had either the first Annual or any of the Collected Comics. My memory of when I was a kid was that the spread was in issue #1, simply transplanted to the centerfold to take advantage of that being where the color printing was (which would help explain why I have it detached as a single piece). -[[User:LV\|LV]] 21:55, 15 March 2011 (EDT)		Re: the Note about the two-page Autobot introduction spread.
