Synopsis
As the Super Stunt Team move their stuff out of Stella's basement and into their newly-acquired spaceship via warp gate, they explain the "servility program" built-in to every Mini-Con that influences the concious will of Mini-Cons who wer recently revived or Powerlinxed, relaying the difficulty they had breaking free from their former Decepticon masters.
The Mini-Cons had also grabbed a deactivated Fixer Bug from their last battle, and relaized their new enemies' plans to return the Mini-Cons to their original design intent: mindless slaves meant to escalate the Autobot-Decepticon war.
Inside the spaceship, the Team is reunited with an old "ally", Falcia. After some curt talk, Falcia forces open Redline's storage panel, and takes one of the Mini-Con storage panels inside, claiming one of her allies is inside it. She loudly declares her intention to join the Autobots and crush the Decepticons, rather than take the path the "cowards" on the Super Stunt Team are persuing.
Errors
- TBA
Items of note
- We get a big explanation of the whole "Mini-Con subservience" deal that was only barely alluded to in the cartoon. Much of "Linkage" seems to involve filling holes in the cartoon.
- We also get to see Redline and Flat-Out's pre-Earth vehicle modes. The Decepticons they are Powerlinxed to bear a striking resemblance to the Generation 1 Decepticons Slugslinger and Misfire.
- We also get a great look at Stella's... tracts of land.
- The fourth page of the comic is a Team bio of the Speed Chaser Team.
