wada sez: We’ve had a few strips about Praxus by this point, you should know the deal. Knott based Red Alert’s design on a custom War Within Sideswipe, paired here with Prowl’s canonical design. Clean colors below.

wada sez: Wout Jut explained on deviantART: “The story is about the captured Megatron by the evil Optimus Prime. Optimus needed him to find the Key of Vector Sigma, so he can open a special gate. This gate brings you to other dimensions. It's also a little tribute to Stargate SG1.” On Seibertron, he went into more detail to explain why Megatron and Galvatron are separate individuals here: “I'm a big fan of Shattered Glass. Read the comic drawn by The Don and read Reunification. Loved that story. But I was sad about how simple Megatron died and how he became Galvatron. Like Gen1 has many universes, this universe is just a variant of the S.G universe. Things are just a little bit different. Since the IDW Galvatron I've hoped to see that the explanation was that they where brothers. Never happened. So I've took a little freedom and made them in the SG universe brothers. Still, It could happen that I maybe write a story where Galvatron is killed and later on that Megatron will be Galvatron. But maybe that's to much. A idea I've got this morning.” Many readers were confused by the inset panel of Optimus Prime pressing a button, as the control panel has an unfortunate tangent with Galvatron’s back, making it seem as if an unseen figure is pressing a button on Galvatron’s back. Philip Knott independently colored his own artwork, sharing it online as an alternate version; see below for that. Jut later re-released the strip with his own lettering, changing the dialogue slightly in the process; you can find that below as well, along with a huge swathe of behind-the-scenes material.

wada sez: Get ready for a week of Wout Jut comics! These one-page strips were collected on deviantART with a mockup cover based on this strip. Only one of them was actually published as a Mosaic, but I expect most of the others were intended for the project before its cancellation. Shattered Glass Elita-One repurposed the Cybertron Override GTS figure; this strip gives her an original aerial mode. See below for tons of ancillary material for this one.

wada sez: Chop Shop was characterised as a scavenger and kleptomaniac in his original Tech Specs. Many of the items on Chop Shop’s shelves are a little hard to make out, but they include ships from various sci-fi franchises, possibly a red Seeker of some kind, a Soundwave, a photo of Megatron, an Xbox, and a Grendizer way down in the bottom-left. A “samoflange” is a component of the ThunderTank from ThunderCats, which gained infamy online after a blooper track from the show made it online wherein Lion-O exclaims, “What the fuck is a samoflange?” There was a minor lettering touch-up to this one after its publication; you can see the original version, which has a few little errors, below.
