Notes
- This comic's existence was accidentally "leaked" in September 2020 in the blurb for the then-upcoming Generations Selects Optimus Prime and Ratchet two-pack, which advertised them as characters from IDW's Shattered Glass comic[2]—at the time, however, most members of the fandom assumed that this was just Hasbro mistakenly accrediting IDW Publishing instead of Fun Publications for the original Shattered Glass concept, and not any kind of teaser for a Shattered Glass revival. What fools time makes of us all!
- Solicitations refer to the story as "Shards",[3] but this title is not present in the comic series itself.
