Quotes
"I know. Look, why don't we save time and you just make a list of all the things you don't understand? That way, I'll be all the way to Varas Centralus before you finish."
- - Alpha Trion is a condescending piston rod.

Items of note
- This issue finally makes some progress towards reconciling pre-All Hail Megatron Cybertron (uninhabitable and toxic due to radiation) with Cybertron as-seen since then (radioactive, but not enough for anyone to actually comment on it): Alpha Trion has been working behind-the-scenes with Metroplex to eliminate the radioactive elements from the atmosphere, and he had already been doing so prior-to AHM. Not the best retcon, but hey, it's something.
- Metroplex is finally revealed in this issue, though he appeared in the last two issues in a city mode that (for the purposes of keeping both the reader and Ironhide in the dark) looked nothing like his recognisable city mode. His appearance also finally explains who/what Metroplex was protecting, as he stated in Spotlight: Metroplex.
