Errors
- None of the members of the Dynasty of Primes, save The Fallen himself, resemble the designs for them seen in the live-action film.
- The first time the "last" Prime is shown, his head sculpt resembles Generation 1 Optimus Prime's helmet. However, for the remaning of the comic he is drawn with a head sculpt resembling Movie Prime's protoform toy head.
Items of note
- Based on the Fallen's initial monologue, the Allspark appears to be evil. Could it be the spark of Unicron? (Furman had previously revealed Unicron to be in the movie-verse, a related entity to the All Spark...)
- However the monologue itself can be also interpreted as delusions of the Fallen who sees himself as The Chosen One by the Allspark.
- One of the Primes points out that they are "Children of Primus". Something Furman also previously suggested in Titan. Hmmm...
- The surviving Prime's design is clearly based on Optimus Prime's protoform toy. Which makes it somewhat fitting that he is the one that actually proposes to the Dynasty the "do not destroy the suns from systems with life" rule and names the Fallen, the Fallen.
- This story clearly establishes the Fallen as the member of the Dynasty responsible for finding new suns to recharge the Allspark. It also implies that the Dynasty of Primes has previously sacrificed worlds with life, and decrees the rule as a means of atonement for their past actions.
