Notes

Original printing
- Planet Terry issue 2, 22 January 1985
As originally published, each issue of Planet Terry contained multiple separately-titled but interconnected chapters. "The Doom of the Domed City" is the third and final chapter from the second issue.
As it was originally published in the same book as "The Saga of Princess Ugly", "The Doom of the Domed City" carries no credits for its creative team, meaning they are uncredited by The Transformers.
Edits
- Compared to its original printing, "The Doom of the Domed City" is split into two instalments, the second of which is given the separate title "The Saga of Princess Ugly part 4".
- Page four of part 3 is the only one printed in colour.
- Splitting the story into two necessitates adding a "[Autobot symbol] NEXT:" caption to the end of part 3, ever so slightly covering up the artwork of the final panel. The first page of part 4 is shrunk to fit a logo and recap banner at the header, leaving wider margins either side of the artwork.
Artwork and technical errors
Continuity errors
Continuity notes
- Robota compares the fleeing denizens of the Domed City to Friday night quitting time at the robot factory, filling in a little narrative gap about her origins caused by edits made to "A Clue".
Real-life references
- If it still needs spelling out, the story of Princess Ugly parodies the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty", in particular adaptations descended from the Brothers Grimm version in which the princess is awakened by a kiss. In universe, Terry seems to be aware of the fairy tale.
