Is the death list too full?

A bunch of the names on the death list (Trypticon, Slug, Bludgeon, and Sludge come to mind) seem to me like they're implied to be dead, but never confirmed. Especially seeing as how Predaking returned in this issue after Razorclaw got his head blown off, aren't we potentially jumping the gun? It wouldn't be the first time avoiding "certain death" for either Slug OR Bludgeon.--Wheelbug (talk) 12:12, 14 November 2018 (EST)

Slug has to be dead. It's the whole point of the scene. He knows he has to die because the Cybertronian race can't move on while people like him, who can't let go of their old hatreds, still exist, and he dies willingly because of that. And Bludgeon has to be dead because of that; there's no catharsis if he gets to live while Slug dies. Likewise, Sludge and Snarl are obviously dead because the story makes a point of showing their bodies, then only showing Swoop and Strafe surviving. It requires looking past what's simply drawn on the page. - Chris McFeely (talk) 12:28, 14 November 2018 (EST)
I'm also kinda unsure about Trypticon, if only because he doesn't show up in the afterlife bit. But I'll defer to your judgement. Escargon (talk) 13:37, 14 November 2018 (EST)
With this being the super-last issue in the continuity (besides the OP #25 coda), I think it's fair to assume anybody blasted and not shown afterwards is dead. Saix (talk) 13:46, 14 November 2018 (EST)

The Dinobots

Not sure if it's intentional or not - and not really sure where it could be noted either - but at this point the only two Dinobots to survive the end of the IDW universe are Grimlock and Swoop. In Beast Era material, these two are usually the only survivors of the Dinobots to make it to the Maximal era, so I almost wonder if it's a reference, but again I don't know how or where to go about mentioning it --LOMI (talk) 12:57, 15 November 2018 (EST)

That occurred to me too, but let's see what Optimus # 25 brings. There may be a more specific reference there. Right now, I'd say it's a little too oblique. Nu-Priest (talk) 13:08, 15 November 2018 (EST)
Well, OP #25 has arrived and no extrapolation. Should we add some kind of note? Still not sure how to phrase it though. --LOMI (talk) 22:54, 22 November 2018 (EST)

Images

Do we, uh, need this much? Saix (talk) 19:30, 15 November 2018 (EST)

They seem to be spaced out well on the page, so I don't see what the problem is. It's a long-ass summary; bigger summary means more images are needed to break up said summary, lest the page become a giant wad of text. The amount of images seems proportionate to the page space, I think it's fine. -Foffy (talk) 19:41, 15 November 2018 (EST)
Gonna have too agree with Saix on this one; I dunno when we started the practice of adding images to comic summaries, but we certainly don't need this many. Escargon (talk) 09:14, 16 November 2018 (EST)
We certainly don't need, like, double-page spreads containing a dozen panels. --ItsWalky (talk) 23:15, 17 November 2018 (EST)
