Items of note
- This issue shares a title with issue 14, and is as such named after the same novel.
- Wheeljack's "ears" glow even when he's not talking.
- Cosmos and Scrapper are mentioned, but not seen.
- The three placard-bearing activists who appear on a monitor screen on page 19 are Transformers fans David "Kalelprime" Wallace, founder of the Moonbase 2 Podcast, and Aimee "Ladywreck" Morgan and Matt "KingGrimlock" Messenger, hosts of the Moonbase's sister show, the comic-book centric Underbase Podcast. In reference to this, Matt's shirt bears an "MB2" logo.
- Megatron's new body was built using, among other things, Ore-13, which helps to explain its nigh-invulnerability.
- Ravage is back. Presumably Spike's claim to have "got him" in The Man of Steel was the non-lethal kind.
- Skywarp is also back, last seen prior to the EMP detonation at the end of the Bumblebee mini. Presumably, he was either captured by Skywatch and liberated a few issues back, or was simply lying low and rejoined the Decepticons of his own accord.
- This issue finally deals with the amoral nature of Spike's descision to murder the wounded Scrapper.

Maybe it's like that The Phantom Menace poster and Shockwave is actually Optimus Prime.
-
That's Megatron. He fights for the users.
