Trivia
- The art strongly implies that the Golden Disk Megatron found in the Forbidden Zones is connected to the one found on Paradron. Don Figueroa drew the disk as the Golden Disk which was launched into space in 1977... but this series takes place 3.5 million years before that artifact's creation. Regular series artist Rob Ruffolo did not use that likeness, though his cave-scratchings do not rule it out either.
- Countdown claimed he had pursued Skystalker all the way to Paradron's core, but the art shows Skystalker surreptitiously tailing Countdown and Groundshaker. Given that Countdown conceals the Disk's existence from Fortress Maximus and Ultra Magnus in his retelling, it was probably something else that led him to Paradron's core.
