Notes

[edit]
  • Though the main protagonist (and cover) of this TPB is Generation 1 Megatron, one of the stories features Armada Megatron.
  • The Marvel issues are all set in the same continuity.
  • For some reason, an "s" was added to the end of Megatron Origin, a common mistake amongst the fans (and apparently editors!)
