Notes

Continuity notes

  • The acolytes of Unicron previously appeared in issue #74 of the original Marvel run.

Transformers references

  • Note Gunrunner's reluctance to leave his shell, and his squirelly behaviour and sense of feeling "exposed" once out in the open—a personality trait introduced to the character by Dreamwave in their More than Meets the Eye profile series, which expanded upon his original bio simple note that he was "shy and insecure" outside his shell by adding some survivor's guilt to his backstory that left him unwilling to leave its safe confines.
