Notes
- "Foundation and Wreckage Part 2" was accidentally left off of the title page.
- Characters name-dropped in the story but not seen include *dramatic inhale*: Sonder, Adronitia, Anecdoche, Exulancus, a bot named Wrecker Hook or Tow-Line, Pipes, Alpha Bravo, Offroad, Thunder Mayhem, Optimus Prime, Hound, Mirage, Hoist, Brawn, Gears, Starscream, Boltax/Cybaxx, Megatron, Sideswipe, Thundercracker, Sunstorm, Grimlock, Noumenon, Aporia, Consumma Compersia, Master Aware, Fisitron, Fatale, Blurr, Fabulcon, Ironclad, Rook, Afterburner, Strafe, Scrounge, Computron, Lightspeed, Ratchet, Inferno, Superion, Defensor, Victorion, Medix, Cliffjumper, and Bludgeon.
- Impactor describes what sure sounds like, in an out-of-universe sense, an earlier Hasbro plan for a Combiner Wars Computron. This "Ironclad" figure is described as as a "mustard tan and gray" redeco of Rook, using the alternate Brawl head we previously glimpsed in Another Light with a red faceplate. It combines with an "energy-efficient" Afterburner for arm mode, presumably the Legends Class Groove mold.
- This story also posits a hypothetical "Project: Firestormer" combiner comprising Bluestreak, Ratchet, Hoist, Sideswipe, and Inferno. Presumably prior to Thunder Mayhem the latter three became "virtual redecoes" of Combiner Wars Trailbreaker, Sunstreaker, and Hot Spot.
Errors
- On Page 3, "The Wrecker commander strode over to blue and black robot who had just unleashed the scathing rant," is missing a "the" between "to" and "blue".
- On Page 11, the word "Fractyl's" is at point misspelled as "Fracty’ls".
Continuity notes
Transformers references
- Bluestreak states that Adronitia had a 65356-9292-346 body-type. at least in her vehicle mode.
- Bluestreak makes mention of Corrodia Gravis, the Reverse Evolution virus, and the Rust Plague as possible diseases which could possibly be brought back by the Teklaans.
Real world references
- Cergo name-drops two planets called Eska and Desna, named after the creepy twins from The Legend of Korra.
- The Teklaans are an alternate version of Marvel's Mekkans, a race of servant robots used to terraform the planet Maarin (referred to by name in this story) before their creators perished to a virus. Additionally, Cergo seems to be based upon Torgo, the first Mekkan, although decidedly more evil.
