	The series contained a comic strip which soon became a main strip with a backup story. The main strip involved a central [[Autobot]]s vs. [[Decepticon]]s storyline for the possession of a [[Mini-Con]] or weapon, whereas "''Tales of the Mini-cons''" would explore the sought-after littlest Transformers' own adventures on Earth, and even dipped into their pasts on Cybertron.

			Comic strip art tended to hew more closely towards the Hasbro generated style-guide art rather than the style used by Dreamwave in the US. This is most evidently shown by how [[Starscream (Armada)\|Starscream]] is consistently portrayed with his wings left flat in their vehicle mode configuration, an error in the part of the original style-guide art for him!
