Notes

Boldly going...

• Several well-known actors from Star Trek have played prominent roles in Transformers, including Leonard Nimoy, George Takei, Michael Dorn, Wil Wheaton and Jeffrey Combs.
• Also, many IDW Transformers staff have done work on the Star Trek comics, including Chee Yang Ong, Chris Mowry, and Andy Schmidt.
• Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman have written entries in the current series of Star Trek films.
• Ikard's name is a combination of the Japanese word for squid (ika) and "Picard", because Ikard is a starship captain.
• Beast Wars: Uprising takes place largely in the 24th century. As such, it includes a large number of Star Trek nods, including having Ikard speak many of Captain Picard's catchphrases, Star Trek: The Next Generation-inspired uniforms for the Confederated Terran Colonial Fleet, and a glorious string of classic TNG technobabble.
• The Complete Allspark Almanac references Tantalus V, a planet from the original Star Trek series.
