Quotes
"Oh, don't look so surprised. You didn't expected this stunted little wretch to survive, did you?"
"You're a maniac!"
- —Overlord's opinion on Guzzle's chance of living and Kup pretty much summing up readers' thoughts of Overlord.
"Ironfist! You should know better than anyone what the Wreckers are really about! They give the other Autobots something to believe in!"
- —Verity trying to motivate Ironfist.
"Oh, man, this is PERFECT! You can't accept that he never gave chase! You lived your life thinking about him every day, and he died forgetting all about you!"
"But... But he owes me! He owes me."
- —Verity giving Overlord the wonderful news about Megatron.
Errors
Items of note
- Autopedia profiles include Pyro, Guzzle, and Impactor. Huzzah!
- On Pova, Prowl admonished Impactor through a communications device in his palm which projected an image that resembles a communicube.
- The final scene takes place in Mister O's Restaurant.
- Impactor's Autopedia profile mentions that Impactor got the idea for his harpoon arm after meeting an unnamed dimension-hopping "freelance peacekeeping agent" who had been "ricocheting from universe to universe after leaping through an exploding time portal." Death's Head, yes? Their meeting is chronicled in Wreckers: Declassified, Datalog 151, which refers to the Marvel UK issue number in which Death's Head leaps through a time portal with Cyclonus and Scourge and disappears from the story.
