Continuity notes

  • The scenes in Rewind's documentary take place over a wide span of time. The earliest takes place during issue #1, while the latest must occur in-between issues #13 and #14. The one present day scene, taking place outside the documentary, occurs between scenes in the previous issue, after Tyrest's defeat but before the Light Lost departs Luna-1.
  • The "Novic" in "Novic Medal" is presumably in reference to legendary Nova Prime.
  • A number of moments from this issue were hinted at or even seen in previous issues, which took place later chronologically.
    • Two of the panels in Rewind's farewell montage in issue #16 have their source in the events depicted this issue: Perceptor running out of his smoking lab and Rung counting his model collection. Back in #16, the scene of the former had camera read-out text when none of the others did. Now we know why.
    • In issue #19, Tyrest brings up Utra Magnus hugging someone.
    • In issue #21, Magnus talks about Rodimus's immature reaction to a "Thunder--."
  • The Raging Prism was mentioned back in #13, where some of the characters talked about visiting its "Temple" on Hedonia. It makes sense, then, that a Hedonian resident would make reference to it.
  • One of the Ammonites exclaims, "By the Great Shattering." According to the Annual, something called the Shattering caused the formation of the Galactic Council. And since we learn this issue that the Council formed in response to the Ammonite-Terradore war... Ta-da, it all adds up!
  • For the first time, we have in-story acknowledgment that Tailgate and Rung are from the same era, confirming that the former's reference to Rungian analysis in issue #1 was no error.
  • Tailgate's statement that he wants to hate Thunderclash is a reference to his tendency to resent 'bots of greatness, previously seen in his attitudes toward Dominus Ambus and pre-insanity Tyrest.
  • The Vis Vitalis was previously mentioned in issue #16.
  • Continuing the running joke of people getting his name wrong, Rung's old ID card spells his name R-O-N-G.
  • Chromedome finally learns to make the sound "pfft." We saw him wondering how as far back as during the pre-War flashbacks in Shadowplay.
