Notes
[edit]- Elba is from the Challenge of the GoBots episode "Escape from Elba", which was named for the Earth island to which Napoleon I was exiled in 1814.
- As originally written by Simon Furman in Spotlight: Arcee, "Garrus-9" was probably meant to be the ninth planet in a system named "Garrus", but "Chaos Theory Part 2" by James Roberts would establish "Garrus" as a system of prisons, and then Jim Sorenson used The AllSpark Almanac II to establish Garrus-9's location as an alternative incarnation of Cy-Kill's prison planet from Challenge of the GoBots.
