First published as a Transformers Mosaic piece.

The Muta Gaath Nebula and Omega's Artificial Asteroid were introduced in Spotlight: Optimus Prime.

Boltax is the same G1 character who appeared in The Chosen One.

Boltax, who had become an Ancient in SoD Shockwave/Soundwave, survived the terrible fate that befell his peers in The War Within: The Age Of Wrath by the hand of Starscream.

"There Were Giants" is an "internal" SoD plot focused on the Gestalt saga.
From the King Predator of the Lawless Times to the titanic battles of The War Within: The Dark Ages, this saga tells the fate of the Gestalts and explains how the War Within and the IDW continuity can be joined seamlessly.

Panel 3. On the left, Monstructor breaks free (see Spotlight: Optimus Prime). On the right, Devastator battles Defensor (see The War Within: The Dark Ages).
There is another key battle, the one that went close to unleash the "final catastrophe"): it was Bruticus versus Superion, we suppose, and we hope that one day we'll be able to tell this one as well!

The race-wide memory removal is a nod to the similar G2 Marvel event (the one triggered by Primus).

The "Big Removal" name is modeled on the "Big Shutdown" name from Dreamwave's G1 books.

"Mass Displacement" is how Simon Furman explained the size-changing Transformers in IDW continuity.

The title, "Supreme Recall", is a nod to the classic SF movie "Total Recall" (in Italy: "Atto di forza").

The line "A storm is coming" is a nod to tv series Fringe (both Jeremy and Franco are fans of).
