Notes
- The "illustrations" in this story are simply stills from the film.
- Transformer deaths are understandably scaled back in this adaptation. For example, when the Decepticons attack Ironhide's shuttle, it simply says, "the Autobot crew had been overcome".
- Unicron is described as "snow-capped" in planet mode.
- The combat drone Hot Rod spars with is called the auto-combatant.
- Many, but not all, of the spoken lines are direct quotes from the movie.
Differences with the movie
- The scene of Unicron attacking Lithone is left out.
- In the beginning, when Laserbeak was spying on Moonbase 1, he is actually hidden in a computer console in tape mode.
- Nobody says "'Til all are one" at the end.
Errors
- A portrait of Rodimus Prime is labeled "Hot Rod".
- At Starscream's coronation, the text says Thrust and Ramjet are standing on either side of Starscream, but the still shows Astrotrain and Ramjet.
- A still is misplaced. It shows Kup's crew and Springer's crew together on the bridge of a ship before they met back up.
