Items of note

• The middle of the comic contains a two-page spread by James Raiz and Alan Wang with Kenny Li featuring Generation 1 Transformers.
• It is never really explained why a nuclear missile that appears to be launched from within the continental US would have to pass over the Pacific Ocean to hit San Francisco.
• Or why it was really necessary for Superion to fly into the missile, killing all five Aerialbots, when they could have just delegated the job to Slingshot. Or just shoot the bloody thing down over the sea.
