Notes
Continuity notes
- Heatwave mentions that the awakening of Citadel Secundus is a historical event, the first time a Titan has been witnessed by Cybertronians in "eons." Assuming that Metroplex was the last Titan seen by Cybertronian optics, this gives a sense of the length of the Great War in this timeline.
Transformers references
- The idea of the Titans leaving Cybertron to colonize the universe was first introduced in the 2005-2018 IDW comics, and the concept has been appearing in various stories since then as an established part of the Transformers lore.
Real-world references
- The Horsehead Nebula is a real dark nebula in the Orion constellation.
