Quotes
Notes
- A safe space is a zone in an educational institution that is supposed to be free of discrimination, harassment, and hate speech against a marginalized class.
- Characters mentioned but not seen include: Fortress Maximus, Rage, Psycho-Orb, Lio Convoy, Buzzclaw, and Maxima
- As with Not All Megatrons, a Sourcebook-style profile follows for Star Dasher.
- As of this story, the Uprising is now in its fifth year. The events at the end of the previous story are mentioned as having taken place one stellar cycle ago. By this point, the Builders control only a third of Cybertron.
Errors
Continuity notes
- Cheetor and Preditron were prisoners of Fortress Maximus back in "Head Games", which detailed the Resistance's efforts to free them, along with Buzzclaw's, er, "heroic sacrifice" for the cause. Cheetor thinks the Predacon wouldn't have approved his name being used for the Resistance's gain, apparently not having been told the whole story about what went down there.
- Rage was previously mentioned to have taken some territory for herself in "Head Games", and mentioned as turning her gaze to Perihex in "Not All Megatrons".
- Cheetor angrily notes Blackarachnia's visit to Iacon, as detailed in "Trigger Warnings". Unsurprisingly, it seems she wasn't actually there on official Resistance business.
Transformers references
- Preditron's focus on Predacon honor and nobility harken back to Dinobot, who would often talk about such things, something no other Predacon in Beast Wars did.
Real-world references
- The crude "landmarks" within the Protihex Arena include the Statue of Liberty, Big Ben, and the Eiffel Tower.
- Some of Ikard's mannerisms are taken from Star Trek: The Next Generation's Jean-Luc Picard. See what they did there?
