Notes
[edit]- The continuity flowchart was already out-of-date by the time it was published, and has only become more so with time. They'd try again in #51, this time only including 'some of the most exciting and interesting stories ever told'. Still, it was a noble effort, Greg.
- The comic is given the IDW logo for the first time.
- Characters mentioned in Optimus Prime's profile: Megatron, Unicron, Overrun, Omega Prime, and Koji.
- Prime feels that "nothing beats driving through the city as a robot in disguise." Har-de-har-har.
- Characters mentioned in Ultra Magnus's profile: Omega Prime and Alpha Trion.
- Alpha Trion was said to have built Prime and Magnus at the same time in "Ultra Magnus: Forced Fusion!"
