* This issue contains the second of two interlinking stories with the title prefix of "Primus", told through the 2012 ''Transformers'' annuals.

The flashback sequences in both these issues are drawn by Guido Guidi in a retro style gloriously evocative of the original [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel Comics series]]—particularly the work of [[Ian Akin]] and [[Brian Garvey]]—which he has also showcased in the variant "B" covers of ''[[The Transformers: Regeneration One|Regeneration One]]''.

Notes

  • This issue contains the second of two interlinking stories with the title prefix of "Primus", told through the 2012 Transformers annuals. The stories' unifying theme is that of exploring and revealing a lot of new information about the earliest days of life on Cybertron, embodied in the presence of the Metrotitan, which appears in this story following its disappearance at the conclusion of the More than Meets the Eye annual. The flashback sequences in both these issues are drawn by Guido Guidi in a retro style gloriously evocative of the original Marvel Comics series—particularly the work of Ian Akin and Brian Garvey—which he has also showcased in the variant "B" covers of Regeneration One.
  • This issue takes the whole "retro" thing substantially further than the More than Meets the Eye annual did, with many more flashback pages and many more loving references to the classic Marvel series. The first page of the comic is a direct homage to the first page of the first Marvel issue, and the whole comic is filled with scripting that deliberately evokes early Marvel quirks, including unnaturally stilted and florid dialogue and narration, as well as an awesome introdump that specifically homages the classic panel from the first issue. It even gets to bust out the classic Marvel square-with-pointy-corners robot speech balloons!
  • The title, "All Good Things" is a shortened version of the phrase "all good things come to an end."
