The TransTechs recruit some help to deal with the dangers posed in the wake of multiversal disruption.
Synopsis
Rhinox reports to Prowl on the damage to the multiverse following the destruction of Primax 207.0 Epsilon, the reverberations of which have caused many other dimensions to merge into one another, or be destroyed entirely. Further, the Earth of 207.0 Epsilon was not the only thing to pass through the portal created by the Terminus Blade: two other ships have also crossed over, but the disruptive effect of the unravelling of space and time on their journey means that they could potentially emerge anywhere, in any era. Readings indicate that they are set to materialize in a time-locked era of history that is home to a powerful artifact known as the Origin Matrix, so the Optimus Primes of two universes are sent to recruit a tracker to help hunt down the missing ships and warn them of the danger it poses. Their target, expert hunter Depth Charge, is found playing cards with Breakdown, Slipstream, Jackpot and Circuit, and agrees to the mission.

Notes
- Initially made available through the Official Transformers Collectors' Club website in September 2012, this story was later reprinted in issue #48 of the club magazine.
- Though printed in the same issue as "A Flash Forward, Part 6", it instead picks up from the prologue to that year's BotCon comic, "Invasion", and following up on the multiversal fallout of that story.
- The characters Depth Charge is playing cards with are four of the six toys available through the club's 2013 subscription service. The Origin Matrix, meanwhile, is obviously the Matrix accessory included with the fifth subscription toy, Ultra Mammoth.
- The images seen on Rhinox's screen in the first panel are different between the online and print versions of the comic. The online version sported pictures of the Battlechargers, Jhiaxus and the "Second Generation" clones from earlier in A Flash Forward while the print version uses images from "A Flash Forward, Part 6", which would have been spoilers at the time the online version was released. The print version is the official version.[1]
