* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:The Transformers go extinct, and they stay that way. However, Rodimus defeats the last of the Decepticons and uses his knowledge to help Fembrance's people use the Energon vein for good, allowing the town to thrive. After some time, he takes the remaining Cybertronian tech, the surviving stasis-locked Visitors, and leaves Donnokt in a starship on a one-way trip into the planet's orbit. By doing this, Rodimus will ensure the Transformers' destructive legacy will end, as he's content to guard Donnokt in case other Cybertronians arrive until he finally goes into stasis lock and dies. The story ends with Shib looking up at the night sky, with the light from Rodimus' starship becoming the first star in a long time]].

She recalls a talk with Rodimus where he revealed that his kind had taken the stars away. Reflecting on this, she muses how, sometimes, bringing back just ''one'' star is enough]].

* BeyondRedemption: As far as Rodimus is concerned, the Transformer race is this, as the Great War ravaged the universe and killed countless species and planets. [[spoiler:It's further cemented for him when he learns that the Survivors are using the liquified remains of organic beings as "Biofuel".]]

** Even the classic Autobot belief that Cybertronians must change their ways to adapt is warped to justify the Survivors' efforts to preserve the Transformer race. [[spoiler:With Steeljaw going so far as to proudly call [[PeopleFarm farming the natives of Donnokt]] into sustainable biofuel exemplary of their ability to change.]]

* TheStarsAreGoingOut: In issue 2 Rodimus is shaken to discover most of the stars he remembered have vanished and others have changed. Rodimus heavily implies the reason they're going out is because of the energy-draining nature of the Autobot and Decepticon war.

Rodimus heavily implies the reason they're going out is because of the energy-draining nature of the Autobot and Decepticon war. Shib mentions how the people of Donnokt saw them flicker out, one by one, as each star died and its last light reached the planet.

** In issue 1, the Visitor/[[spoiler:Nitro]], detects strange readings from the steam-powered cars around Fembrance and Rodimus' vehicle form while scanning the town for "biofuel". [[spoiler:Not only is it an early hint that there's Energon on Donnokt, but also hints that Nitro and the other Survivors had their bodies modified to [[HumanResources track down and consume biofuel]] instead.]]

* InternalDeconstruction: The Transformers are {{Mechanical Abomination}}s trapped in a cycle of endless death and rebirth, grinding entire solar systems into dust to feed [[ForeverWar their eternal conflict]] until factions lose all distinction or meaning and there is nothing left to fight over or repair themselves with, damning themselves to a slow slide into extinction as their robotic bodies break down and run out of power. As they enter the final death throes of their civilization, the survivors become [[ScavengerWorld predatory, barely-functional raiders preying on "lesser" races]], except for Rodimus Prime himself, who maintains his morality and defends said races… by [[HunterOfHisOwnKind slaughtering his own kin]].

* SpaceRomans: The alien sentients of Donnokt, at least in the part of the planet Rodimus and the Survivors find themselves in, are shown as not only in the midst of an industrial revolution, but also having a civilization very reminiscent of the American Wild West.
