[edit] Transformers references
- This entire comic was a tribute to Derek Yaniger's artwork in the Marvel Generation 2 comics.
- Colonel Deathsaurus's pose is also identical to Bludgeon's on the third page of "Tales of Earth Part One" from the Generation 2 comic.
- Bug Bite's pose is lifted from Sideswipe's first appearance in Generation 2 #1, "War Without End!".
- Dirge features more homages than you can shake a Pretender shell at.
- The four Pretender shells on the first page are the shells of the Classic Pretenders, while the other two shells on the second page are the unreleased Double Pretenders.

[edit] Miscellaneous trivia
- When it was released online, this comic was supposed to be a three page preview to Shattered Glass. It was actually an April Fools joke. A really good one. Ironically, the story and characters (Mr. T Jazz, Criminal genius Grimlock etc) were all extremely popular, and it has been suggested more comics from this series may appear.
