Shockwave this, Shockwave that!

All I ever hear about

is how great Shockwave is!

Shockwave is an ideal soldier.

He is both humble and respectful.

Shockwave has much to be humble about!

Who can respect a leader who
cannot so much as defeat the Autobots?

You'll never understand, Starscream.

You lack the ability to
see your own faults.

NOBODY TURNS HIS BACK ON ME!

Decepticons,
feast your eyes on your new leader.

What the-- Megatron!

You - you were dead! I terminated you!

Fool! I cannott be terminated by a
single sh*t from your puny w*apon!

I'm sick of your endless quest for power!

Especially at the cost of losing mine!

Don't just stand
there, do something!

Your new leader orders
you to slay Megatron!

You're a fool, Starscream,

if you think that anyone will
ever follow your orders!

Just wait, Megatron.

One of these days, I will have my revenge!

You and what army?

Get him out of my sight!

Laserbeak, eject!

What happened?

Yes... Megatron exiled me!

Me! Starscream!

He made me a fool out of me in
front of the other Decepticons.

They'll never respect me as a leader now.

What the--?

The wing from an old fighter plane the
flesh creatures used in their wars.

There must be more of
this stuff lying around.

This thing must be huge!

Reminds me of that two-faced,
lougmouth Blitzwing.

Yes... if Megatron can have his Blitzwing,

so can I!

Me and what army...

I'll show what army!

Out of the way, you microchip morons!

I have an urgent business on Cybertron!

We're under strict orders,

not to let anyone travel on the space
bridge without proper authorization.

Here's my authorization!

Ahem... proceed.

Activate the space bridge! Now!

, , ...

Aha! .

I know you're in here somewhere!

Gotcha!

Combaticons, Transform!

Brawl! Swindle!

Blast Off! Vortex!

And Onslaught!

Who are you? And what are we
doing in these crude carcasses?

Yes, I wouldn't want to be seen
by anyone I know in this getup.

I am Starscream,

and I just freed your hides from the
Decepticon detention centre on Cybertron.

In return, I command you to
assist me in dethroning Megatron!

Whats to stop us from
bringing you into scrap iron instead?

The fact that I have not equipped
you with energy absorbers.

Without them you cannot refuel.

No energy, No life.

So, do we have a deal?

Very well.
We will obey you, for now.

Okay, let's make it a three sh*t.
You guys ready?

Hi!
This is Marty Minkler reporting live.

Today we are witnessing
a historic occasion.

I have with me, two members of the
Autobot team, Jazz and Cliffjump.

Thats Cliffjumper.

Uh, yes Cliffjumper.

They have been invited
here as guests of honor,

to officially cut the ribbon at this ceremony,
dedicating this magnificent statue,

of the leader of the
Autobots, Optimus Prime.

Um, what the--?

Are they Decepticons?

They must be. Their leader is Starscream!

Combaticons, Transform!

Hey Swindle! Listen to this!

...My sonic blaster blows 'em away!

That's hip, Brawl. But check this out!

Instant air conditioning!

Really.

My ionic blaster is more sophisticated
than any of your crude weapons.

Hang on to your hats!
It's gonna get a little windy! Heheheheh!

Thanks, Vortex.
I could use a little target practice!

It doesn't look good, Jazz!

Maybe you better radio
Autobot Headquarters for help!

Piece of cake!
We can take these - ooh!

Hey, come on up for a spin!

I Win! I Won!

The first battle goes to Starscream
and his army of combaticons!

And Megatron is next!

Its great to return victorious,

and any doubts I had about your
abilities, are a thing of the past.

Did you see me out there?

I was magnificent.
You might even say stupendous!

Why you wimp!

Not one of you has the muscle to
stand up to those Autobots alone!

If I hadn't been there, they'd be digging
up your parts with an electromagnet!

Nonsense! It was my plan that
caused the Autobots downfall!

Your plans? It was my vortex
that put them out of commision!

Knock it off!

Save your energy and your
contempt for Megatron!

What about the Autobots Energy Absorber?

What about them?

You promised them to us!

Well, I can't play favourites now, can I?

Nobody gets an energy absorber until
we capture three more Transformers.

Shockwave reporting to Megatron.

Intruders have liberated personality
components of the Renegade Decepticons.

The Autobots.
Now they've really done it!

They've gone too far this time!

I shall crush them once and for all!

Local news station reports
unidentified robots

led by Decepticon Starscream,

att*cked unveiling ceremonies
of Optimus Prime Memorial.

Eyewitnesses say, that two Autobots,
Jazz and Cliffjumper, were abducted.

Strange.

Most of the Decepticon att*cks are related
to their incessant need for energy.

Maybe Starscream has
finally gone off his nut--

Man, your battlestations!

Everyone, roll out!

Spread out and take cover!

Return to me what is mine
and I will show you mercy!

What are you talking about? Return What?

This is your last chance, Optimus!

I want the personality components
of those Renegade Decepticons!

And I want them now!

I've got a demand of my own, Megatron!
Release Jazz and Cliffjumper!

Jazz? Cliffjumper? Are Prime's
microchips messed up?

Wait!
Maybe it wasn't Prime after all!

Maybe...

Blast you, Optimus!

Decepticons, retreat!

What was that all about?

I don't know, Bumblebee.

And what was all that talk
about Renegade Deceptions?

I don't know the answer to that either.

But perhaps Teletraan does.

Teletraan ,
we need to know everything you

have on the history of
Renegade Decepticons.

Renegade Decepticons are political
prisoners detained on Cybertron.

Under direct orders from Megatron,

Shockwave had their personality
components removed from their structures.

The structures were subsequently destroyed.

Until yesterday,
the personality components

were stored in the
Decepticon detention centre.

Megatron thinks that we did it.

Starscream must have stolen the components,

to create his own army!

So that's what this is all about.

It's a power struggle between
Megatron and Starscream.

Well their little domestic
squabble is none of our concern,

But rescuing Jazz and Cliffjumper is.

Autobots, transform!

Where is that fool Starscream?

Right here, Megatron. Behind you.

This is my army, Megatron,
the Combaticons.

This fool

is taking his rightful place
in Decepticon Hierarchy!

And there is nothing you can do to stop me!

- Bye-Bye, Megatron! - No!

So long, Megatron--

and don't think that it hasn't been fun!

I see incompetence breeds even
more incompetence. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Pipe down, Starscream!

We'll save your cowardly hide!

Re-energization of troops incomplete.

We must withdraw.

Decepticons, retreat!

They're getting away! You idiot!

I had him dead to rights before you fired!

You're the idiot, Starscream!

Yeah! Soundwave was about to
blow a hole in your chassis!

You're wearing us out, and you still
haven't given us any energy absorbers!

Hey fellas! Back off!

Maybe you'd like to go for a whirl!

Look! Two more transformers
to add to our collection!

That brings our energy
absorber count to four!

Only one more to go,
then you can all be recharged!

Remember, I'm the only one
who knows how to install them,

and I will, as as we defeat Megatron!

Powerglide, I want you to patrol the area,

for Starscream and his sidekicks.

No sooner said than done!

And away we go!

Starscream is a child!

Even with an army of a thousands,

he couldn't lead them in a
parade, let alone against us!

We will exterminate him and
those who follow him!

Sound the other Decepticons!

My power must not be usurped!

Stunticonss, report at once!

Megatron commands.

Tell Megatron to blow it out his exhaust!

We're having a demolition derby!

This is more like it!

You said it! Nothing
like getting juiced up on energy!

All right, let's go!

Megatron will not wait long before
he lauches his as*ault on us.

It's too late! He's found us!

att*ck!

Starscream, surrender, or be destroyed!

Never, Megatron!

I've taken it this far--
I won't stop now!

You'll have to do better than that!

Powerglide to Optimus Prime!
Come in, Optimus!

This is Prime.

I found Starscream and
the Combaticons engaging

in a firefight with Megatron
and the Decepticons!

They are at the Amalgamated Water and
Power Plant on the north side!

Continue monitoring their activities.

The Autobots and I will
be join you momentarily.

Roger that! Out!

Autobots, transform and roll out!

Enough of this!
Constructicons, merge into Devastator!

Leave no trace of their
their insidious existence!

I have prepared for this
emergency, Megatron.

Combaticons, merge into Bruticus!

Bruticus...angry.

Bruticus... devastate... Devastator!

Jazz and Cliffjumper, appear to be safe!

Grapple, Ratchet.
Now got get Jazz and Cliffjumper.

Nothing of you will be left but
salvage, Starscream!

Promises, Promises!

Its no use! We must retreat!

So, Megatron?

Now will you kindly tell the world
who the new Decepticon leader is?

- Never! - Bruticus?

Noo!

Now, Megatron: who is the
new Decepticon leader?

Enough! Uhm...you are.

I can't hear you!

You are!

I am now the leader of all Decepticons!

Motormaster:
Megatron's in trouble.

Dead End: Who cares?

Wildrider: It looks like
Starscream's defeated him.

Dead End: So? Motormaster: So,
you think Starscream's going to stop here?

Dead End: Good point.
He never knows when to quit.

Motormaster: Stunticons,
unite to form Menasor!

Bruticus?

No, Starscream, not Bruticus.

It's Megatron—your leader!

Megatron, don't, please!

This time, it really is
'goodbye', Starscream!

Astrotrain, get him and his
giant ally off this planet!

They are banished from Earth...forever!

You'll regret that you did
not destroy me, Megatron!

I shall have my revenge!
