| Early on in ''[[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|The Transformers]]'' comic series, events were depicted as happening in the mainstream universe along with other [[Marvel Comics]] stories. [[Spider-Man]] played a leading role in [[Prisoner of War!|issue #3]]. Cameos and references were made to other Marvel characters and settings including [[Mister Fantastic|Reed Richards]], [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]], [[Nicholas Fury]], [[Dum Dum]], [[Godzilla]], the [[Savage Land]], [[U.S. 1]], [[Ka-Zar]], and [[Dazzler]]. Editors notes explicitly placed issue #3 prior to ''Spider-Man'' #258 and [[Repeat Performance!|issue #8]] before ''Avengers'' #257.

Confirmation of the existence of that letters page would be much appreciated.
