Notes
- This issue sees Transformation replace Openers, which would serve as the main editorial column for the rest of the comic's run. The Robot War! feature also marks a first, dedicating two pages to actual Transformers prose material and heralding the periodic inclusion of new-reader recaps. And, of course, Soundwaves becomes the first in-character letters page, though it wouldn't settle in properly until issue 28.
