The second cover is a nice tribute to G1 #186 (http://www.tfarchive.com/comics/marvel/covers/uk186.jpg) ;) Also, check out panel 2 on page 1 - it's Scrounge (http://s90690880.onlinehome.us/jhiaxus/uscomics/scrounge.htm)! Of course, he's dead by the next panel, making him an even greater "hi then die" character than his G1 counterpart!


IDW Goldbug isn't Bumblebee.
He's also evidently blind. He called Chase "Freeway"! Buh?!? (o_O)

There's also a G1 cartoon Soundwave's-Cybertron-mode streetlight. They like their Easter eggs. And the landscape-style page layout for the issue seems to work.

I like that they actually show Metroplex in the long shot, although he's more symmetrical than his usual appearance and fairly cunningly integrated into the surrounding city.
