With [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Galvatron]] held fast in [[Monstructor (G1)\|Monstructor]]'s arms, [[Jhiaxus (G2)\|Jhiaxus]] uses his former ally's link to the Dead Universe in conjunction with the chronal drive of [[Turmoil]]'s ship to drain the life-energy out of the Dead Universe from its very beginning (in turn, ''causing'' it to be, and always have been, dead). In response to Galvatron's demands, Shockwave explains the history of his [[Regenesis]] ores, and how they are being employed: by combining [[Ore-14]] and [[Ore-2]] in the [[~~Quintessa (IDW)\|~~Necrotitan]] and then exposing the result to the transmutative [[Ore-7]], brought by [[Metroplex (G1)\|Metroplex]], he has fundamentally altered the nature of life and death... by merging [[Ore-6]] with [[Ore-8]] he has gained mastery of the potential energy of all matter... and by blending [[Ore-1]] with [[Ore-13]], time is now at his command... all to facilitate the very ''real'' "Dark Cybertron" prophecy. His pontifications are observed by [[Metalhawk (G1)\|Metalhawk]] and a puzzled [[Waspinator (BW)\|Waspinator]], who realize that things are much worse than they originally believed—a conclusion that has also been reached by the discorporated [[Skywarp (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Skywarp]], who manages to solidify himself long enough to teleport the pair out of the cavern.

	* When describing Galvatron and Nova's unification of ancient Cybertron, Shockwave refers to "[[Thirteen Tribes]]", a number with [[Thirteen\|great significance]] in Transformers lore. An ancient tribe known as the [[Diaclona Tribe]] was previously mentioned in ''[[Omega's Conundrum\|Spotlight: Orion Pax]]'', and may be one of these thirteen.

	* Given the multiple ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)\|Transformers: Generations]]'' toy tie-ins involved in "Dark Cybertron", it was logical at the time of publication to assume that Arcee's new body was based on her then-upcoming ''Generations'' toy, but the toy that was eventually released (a good six month after this issue) bore little resemblance to the comic.
