Trivia

• For some reason, Chris Ryall's blog-announcement that Maramba would be doing the cover to the second issue of IDW's Transformers Animated limited series listed his name as "Maramba Myrberg", until it was pointed out that no such person existed (whereas Irineo, obviously, did). The announcement was subsequently changed, but by then the majority of the fandoms' news sites were no longer paying attention.[1]
• Irineo has an animation model, and as such periodically appears in Animated as a background extra. One such appearance is in "Garbage In, Garbage Out", where he appears in the background of a newscast as a citizen angry with the Detroit garbage problem.
