Items of note

In an interesting nod to future stories, Bumblebee calls Ratchet "the best surgeon this side of Hydrus Four!"

The fate of Ratchet and Megatron will be followed up on in US #69–70.

Transformers Universe profiles for the Seacons are found after the main story.

With issue #249 of the UK comic the cover logo changes from Action Force to G.I. Joe the Action Force. This had been explained as a merger between the European and American groups in a mini-comic given away with issue #245 and reflected a change in the toyline packaging.
