Three hundred years into the future, and Cybertron's Great War is over. The Autobots and Decepticons have created the Maximals and Predacons to fight on in their stead. Confined to Cybertron, a whole new generation of Transformers fight and die for their creators' amusement. But some of their creations start to wonder why they have to do this, and so begins an all-new Cybertronian war.A Bad Future interpretation of Beast Wars, this storyline was first established in a bio of Blackarachina, during Transformers: Timelines visit to the Transtech universe. It was some years later before any readers got a good look at this universe, which was also the subject of a five-issue storyline, and assorted prose stories showing, among other things, the start of the war.The series consists of several text stories published on the fan club's website, along with a storyline in the fan-comic.Stories from this series include: Alone, Together, a club-exclusive comic note  Issues 55-60 cover the storyline. featuring Trans-Mutate and Protoform X, dealing with the mysterious Destructons and their deranged leader, Lord Imperious Delirious. Broken Windshields: Lio Convoy, agent of the Builders, is inspired to revolution after a meeting with a Maximal called Blackarachnia. Head Games: Hapless Predacon Buzzclaw starts going up in the world when the Resistance recruits him for an important mission. But there's this nagging voice in Buzzclaw's head... Broken Bridges: Burnt-out MCSF officer Stilleto has to deal with her own twisted memories, at the same time she holds off a Resistance attack. Micro-Aggressions: Former Autobot troublemaker Grimlock's back, and has a plan to get at the Builders, involving the horrific G-Virus. Intersectionality: Out on the fringe of Cybertronian space, the good ship Dinosaur runs into several problems, including someone murdering the crew. Trigger Warnings: Jaded cop Wolfang has to deal with a murder, a mysterious dame, his bosses and his own conflicting loyalty, as he stumbles on a terrible secret. Identity Politics: Long before the Uprising, an ambitious Predacon named Gnashteeth, and his underling Scorponok decide to go into business for themselves, yeeeess... Not All Megatrons: Megatron decides it's time for the Uprising to get beastly. Cultural Appropriation: A rag-tag bunch of misfits (and one immortal psychopath) team up to stop a group of mighty robots making trouble for everyone, mankind included. Safe Spaces: Cheetor and Preditron fight for their lives in the arena. But attempted murder is about to be the least of their problems. Derailment: The big finale, as it's Resistance versus Builders versus everybody, as Galva Convoy's weapon is unleash. The Inexorable March: A coda to the finale.

comment
Abusive Precursors: The Builders of Cybertron are utter dicks, having created the Maximals and Predacons solely to fight in their stead when they couldn't, and then after that putting them in rigged arena combat just so they can bet on it. They're also not above murdering people who've won previous games to "liven things up". Most of the outright dickery is perpetuated by the Assembly, but the Builders who reject their ways and speak out against them tend to be pushed to the side for it.

Bizarre Alien Biology
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_1161fb48
comment
Bizarre Alien Biology: One of the key points of this universe is that, unlike some continuities, Maximals and Predacons are not just smaller, more efficient versions of Autobots and Decepticons, but an entirely separate race altogether. This means the Beast Upgrade doesn't work on the Builders and their flunkies and is implied to be a contributing factor to their terrible treatment of the next generation.

comment
Hybrid-Overkill Avoidance: In the final days of the war, Galvatron and Optimus Prime became a mixture of Headmaster, Powermaster and Targetmaster - the Triple Threat Masters. It came at the cost of vastly reducing their lifespans, but in Galvatron's case no-one involved cared much and Prime didn't have much of a choice if he wanted to stand a chance against the former.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: At the end of the Great War, what was left of the Cybertronians were beaten up by the technologically more advanced mankind and penned in to a small area of space, which the humans call the "Allowed Zone", and regularly take more and more from them. Ahem. A group of people told they were being Released to Elsewhere, only to be met with attempted genocide. Are we talking about the Jews in Nazi Germany, or the Targetmasters? Preditron is considered the founder of the Predacons, but his writings are appropriated and "reinterpreted" by the Tripedacus Council for their own ends. Gnashteeth doesn't like his given name, finding it ill-fitting and uncomfortable, and eventually decides to have it changed.

Jumping Off the Slippery Slope
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_1520ad7e
comment
The Resistance deem any Maximal or Predacon who side with the Builders as race traitors. Then as the war progresses and the Resistance gets worse, the title of "race traitor" starts getting applied to anyone who dares to be neutral or even Resistance members who object to the constant war crimes, like Snapper or Cheetor.

comment
All There in the Manual: The first mention of the Uprising universe came in a profile of Blackarachnia in the Transformers Fan Club magazine, which is also the only place that explains what became of Optimus Primal, Rhinox and Silverbolt - they died, which prompted Blackarachnia, Cheetor and Nightscream to go rogue. Depth Charge's absence from the stories was explained with his Fan Club exclusive toy, since he went after Blackarachnia and Nightscream when they fled the universe.

Visionary Villain: Megatron becomes determined to spread the Beast Upgrade across Cybertron, and for once that's the entire plan. There's no hidden mechanism behind it, or ploy. He just wants the proto-races to fend for themselves. Although it does happen to make him astoundingly rich (and the experiments cause the deaths of a few 'bots).

Unreliable Narrator
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_1869b4b1
comment
Unreliable Narrator: The Book of Logos, the hidden story of "Derailment", is written as a religious vision in pseudo-Jacobean English, which makes figuring out what's happening... a little difficult, to say the least. The hidden story of "The Inexorable March" contains many references to the events after the main story. Problem is, the guy narrating it is shown to be very unreliable as a journalistic source, suffering a bad case of cognitive bias, so anything he mentions should probably be taken with a grain of salt.

Ambiguous Situation
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: Exactly who it was that became Triple-Threat Prime is unclear. It could be Optimus, given the partners he had are those who've usually been partnered with Optimus in other media, but no concrete details are given (especially since some of them are also those who could be partners of Ultra Magnus). And exactly what became of them is also unclear, though given the Triple Threat Master technology is stated to take years off a 'bot's life, the answer seems pretty clear. Derailment confirms that Triple-Threat was Optimus, but that he died sacrificing himself to take out The Swarm.

The Compliance Game: Self-inflicted by the freelancer Bisk, who sees the world as a massive video game and allocates "points" for successful completed "quests". His main employer Gnashteeth (who later renames himself Megatron after the ancient Decepticon) finds this kind of annoying, but tolerates it because Bisk is just that good.

Adaptational Villainy: Beast Machines-era Snarl, normally portrayed as a pretty good guy, is a Builder thug. Bighorn, normally a Gentle Giant, is a Jerkass Lio Convoy, the typical squeaky-clean Big Good, is willing to rig fights for his Builder masters, and on occasion murder survivors of previous Games on their orders. And then when he starts the revolution, he's still willing to do unethical things in the name of victory. A great many Autobots are willing to enforce the system that makes the Maximals fight and die in pointless, rigged games.

Good Is Not Nice
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_21f3aa44
comment
Good is Not Nice: Back when the Autobots could have even been considered good, during the war on Nebulos, they apparently used Fausto Borx's daughter Llyra as a distraction when he was fighting Fortress Maximus in order to win ("Apparently", because the story that reveals this is told by Nucleon, who's biased on the subject of Autobots). The Oracle is very much aware of the Builders, and the Uprising, and the horrible things it will produce, but says it needs to happen, destruction to allow better things to follow. It is, however, intervening in little ways to nudge things towards the best (or least worst) outcome possible, and it's words are vindicated in the end when the events of the Uprising and Vehicon Apocalypse do indeed open the path to a better future for all Transformers… but only if they choose to walk that path, as the Oracle can only light the way, not force them to do things, even what is best for them. Thankfully, they do.

Related in the Adaptation: Averted. Apparently here Lio Convoy and Lio Junior aren't related at all. Likewise, Galvatron from Beast Wars II and Megastorm have no relation. However, Beast Wars Galvatron is treated as a reincarnation of G1 Galvatron, as opposed to his anime version, who just took the name. Also, Maxima was apparently the "first daughter" of Fortress Maximus in this continuity.

Mythology Gag
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Many, especially since the text stories are written by Jim Sorenson, who loves mythology gags. During "Broken Windshields", Autopedia, the Autobot database from Last Stand of the Wreckers, makes an appearance. On 24th century Cybertron, it's just used to track the many stupid laws the Builders write. "Alone, Together" establishes Trans-Mutate and Rampage are Point-One Percenters. "Burning Bridges" has Nuke as a popular stimulant. Engex is a popular drink order at Cybertronian bars, along with a component of makeshift grenades. Cyber Planet Keys are the reigning currency on Cybertron. While on guard duty, Stiletto finds an old Noisemaze unit, and wonders if the building once held Guardminders as well. On seeing one Builder in a crowd with a monocular head, Snapper reckons he's been subject to empurata. One of the many things kept in the Forever Vault is some schematics for Madmachines, a evil device of the week from Transformers: ★Headmasters. The G-Virus is said by Hot Rod to be fuelled by Dark Energon. Hidden text in Micro-Aggressions establishes the first human AI was build in 1985 (a reference to TORQ III, from the original cartoon). During Trigger Warnings, Blackarachnia first goes under the alias of "Venus" (after her first VA, Venus Terzo), then Elita (after her Animated counterpart). According to Jim Sorenson, during the war on Earth, San Francisco got destroyed. Again. "A Brush With Infamy" is filled with references to various parts of Transformers media. "Not All Megatrons" has Megatron committing mad science once again. Also, during the same story, Packrat loots a Stasis Pod from the Alchemor. One of the Micromaster squad in "Safe Spaces" is Crunch, who previously showed up as a hi-and-die in the Dreamwave Micromasters miniseries. His luck isn't any better here. Early on in "Derailment", a character muses he'll end up like Trailbreaker "after the DJD were through with him", a nod to the poor guy's graphic fate in The Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye. Stockade getting turned into a Vehicon. The 2003 Stockade was a repaint of Tankor. Here, the Vehicon virus starts turning her into a Tank Drone before her comrades try (and fail) to save her. Toward the climax of "Derailment", a character mutters disbelief at how the war's come to everyone fighting a giant, screaming head. The much-mocked Combiner Wars webseries had Starscream turn into a giant, screaming head that everyone had to fight. Another reference shows up earlier on, when Lio Convoy tries bashing his sword as a sign of authority, but the sound it makes is a less-than impressive "doink". Said sound effect was a brief meme after some lousy sound editing from aforementioned series made the Mistress of Flame bashing her staff against the ground more comical than intended. Steeljaw shows up leading The Pack, much like how his cartoon counterpart led another Pack. As in RID, Steel-Jaw likes scratching everyone's faction insignia, though here it's to establish their membership, not to disable tracking devices. Antagony and Cataclysm show up working for Shockaract at the end of "Derailment", just as they did in their first appearance. Here, Antagony comes out on top of her rival. The Book of Logos mentions an unidentified villain, probably the Liege Maximo, waiting for "the alignment". Alignment being a convention story written by Simon Furman explaining just what was up with the Liege. Deluge mentions that previous Cybertronian incidents involving Earth involved "the Cube", "the Harvester" and "the Hate Plague". The hidden text in "The Inexorable March" has a moment where Headmasters (tiny robots who turn into a larger robot's head) are conflated with Titanmasters (the renamed version of the Headmasters from Titans Return). Also, Lio Convoy's supposed Titanmaster partner is apparently called "Moon Usagi", after Moon - one of the few Beast Wars II characters not to show up in the story. The end of "The Inexorable March" is one great, big, glorious homage to the opening of Beast Wars (with some Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo thrown in).

Uncertain Doom: After Scylla's killed in the Battle of Yuss, Cybershark is put in charge of the forces remaining there. Later on, the fleet falls to the Vehicons, and Cybershark goes missing, presumed dead or assimilated. We never find out what happened to him. Likewise, Grimlock's fate is left uncertain; the obvious assumption is that he died blowing up the tower in the final battle, but his body is never found.

Cryptic Background Reference
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_334b7f3a
comment
Cryptic Background Reference: The end of Burning Bridges mentions a "Targetmaster Extirpation". Trigger Warning gives more details on the Extirpation. The Targetmasters were smaller beings who could transform into guns for larger Transformers, some of them being native Cybertronians while others were humans or Nebulan allies. In the mainstream universes, the primary advantage of the Targetmasters is having a weapon that can aim itself, allowing the wielder to focus on other matters. In the Uprising universe, the Targetmasters are described as granting enough firepower to level siege-works (the mainstream universe Targetmasters are also mentioned as being more powerful than regular weapons, but not to this extent). When the Great War ended, the Targetmasters were deemed too powerful for either side to have and so were gathered in order to grant them exile to a safe world of their choice where they never needed to fear being used as weapons again. The assembled Targetmasters were then massacred by their former comrades, with both Autobot and Decepticon taking part in the slaughter.

In the present day, a street gang of Predacon supremacists have taken to calling themselves the new Mayhem Attack Squad and aspire to be like them, despite being mostly regarded as a bunch of pathetic losers.

Screw the Money, This Is Personal!: Taking place in an alternate universe where the Maximals and Predacons are second-class citizens under the boot of the Builders of Cybertron (i.e. the Autobots and Decepticons), the Predacon Gnashteeth comes under the wing of the Micromaster Decepticon Double Punch. Double Punch is offered the chance to become a Senator, with the caveat he cut ties with his Predacon "pet". Despite Gnashteeth being instrumental to his success, Double Punch does so. The first hint Double Punch has that he made a terrible mistake is when he arrives home after his first meeting as a Senator to find his bodyguard dead. When Gnashteeth emerges carrying Double Punch's own Tyrant Spear, the Decepticon tries to make him an offer, but the Predacon is long past the point of caring and kills him.

Noodle Incident
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_3c0a4666
comment
Noodle Incident: The last she was seen, Blackarachnia was in the Shattered Glass universe, with Alpha Trion. Exactly how she wound up back home, without her stolen Transtech body, isn't clear. Something called "The Scouring of Nebulos" was the final straw for mankind. It's revealed in "A Brush With Infamy" to have been the war reaching the planet, and the battle between Fortress Maximus and MegaZarak utterly devastating an already battered planet, so much so it couldn't support life. An incident involving Thunderwing and the Grand Mal. He got his hands on the Underbase, absorbed its power, and his troops, killed the Wreckers and merged with the flying fortress. Something called "The Rending". The Grendel Gambit, Galvatron's last zany scheme to get at mankind. The exact specifics aren't clear, thanks to The Book of Logos being written in pseudo-Jacobian speech, but the general indication is that he and the Decepticons tried to use Pretender tech to disguise themselves as humans and get past mankind, and it really didn't work out. Relatedly, while we're the fates of Galvatron and Scourge after the aforementioned Gambit (they were tried and executed by the Builders as revenge for bringing the Human Confederacy down on everyone's heads), what happened to Cyclonus goes conspicuously unmentioned, beyond vague references to him performing some kind of Heroic Sacrifice. The fight between the Cybertronian Empire and the Autobots. "The Book of Logos" hints that Megatron (as in the original Megs) might've been involved somehow, in events not too dissimilar from the non-canonical Alignment. (The confusion might have something to do with Logos jumping from time to time, so it's entirely possible the fight with the Swarm came before Unicron showed up). According to "The Inexorable March", somewhere after the 24th century, Cybertronians had a run-in with the Ammonites. They got through it, but whatever happened made them decide not to go wandering out of their galaxy. Rodimus' disastrous leadership of the Autobots. The exact specifics of Unicron's attack on Cybertron. While it is made clear Optimus got a resurrection, the story is amazingly unspecific as to how.

Curb-Stomp Battle: In the backstory, Galvatron's Decepticons versus the nascent Human Confederacy in the Grendel Gambit. The battle was embarrassingly one-sided in the Confederacy's favor, with them utterly mopping the floor with the Decepticons. In the finale, the Tripredacus Council take the Preditron matter into their hands by fighting him in a Duel to the Death… while they're combined into Tripredacus. Needless to say, poor Preditron doesn't survive the ensuing fight, if it can even be called one.

Historical Hero Upgrade / Historical Villain Upgrade: Played with in Hatchet's book Lio Convoy: Unity Through Tyranny. While it decidedly vilifies Convoy as a tyrant whose atrocities forced the Builder's Council to release the Vehicons, it also accurately critiques "simplistic" views of Lio Convoy as a hero and visionary. It implies the legitimately nasty stuff Convoy did authorize like the G-Virus had gotten downplayed or airbrushed out over the centuries. And one of his main sources seems to be Pontiff General Rampage, who, assuming he's the same Rampage, never liked Lio Convoy anyway.

comment
Adaptational Heroism: Rampage is not as much of a demented murder-monster as his Beast Wars counterpart. He still likes threatening people with colourful death, but hardly ever follows through on them. Megatron is legitimately trying to help his people cast off the yoke of oppression and be independent with their new beast modes. Contrast that to the time travelling, Spark absorbing conqueror. Mind you, he still has a lot of wealth and political power to gain from all this but he's not risking the entire space/time continuum to satisfy his ego and god complex. The Commandoes are Maximals, rather than brainwashed-into-evil Decepticons, as they were in Robots in Disguise. Though "heroism" is pushing it, given the whole "suicide bomb" thing...

Zerg Rush: The Pack versus Erector's forces. Steel Jaw and Ramulus acknowledge they could take the Builder forces this way, but they'll loose a lot of troops in the effort. The desperate situation of the Vehicon Apocalypse forces them to do it anyway.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_420c50b7
comment
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Mostly averted. The AIs (or "second-born intellects" as they're called in-story) in the Human Confederacy are all friendly, normal folks that just happen to be machines, and the ancient AI that controls (or rather is) the Draco Ziggurat is also totally benevolent. Lord Imperious Delirious, on the other hand, applies for this trope all the way.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Rampage, of all people. Sure, it's partially down to his death wish, but he sure has no problem getting himself trashed to protect others, and while he makes some pretty bloodcurdling threats and acts like a tool, he rarely carries any of them out, even choosing to give his creator a quick death instead of the slow poison he'd originally planned.

Death by Adaptation: Diver and Cohrada, in "Head Games". Bighorn, in "Burning Bridges" Mach Kick steps on a land-mine in "Micro-Aggressions" Hydra and Killer Punch get murdered in "Intersectionality", and Hard Head gets his Spark carved out by Lord Imperious Delirious. Max-B is one of Megatron's test subjects he had to put down in "Not All Megatrons". Paralon gets interrogated to death by Megatron later on. Break sacrifices his life to help the Resistance in Derailment. Scylla is killed when Banzaitron rams her ship with Tidal Wave. Springload is killed by the Vehicons. Steel Jaw is felled by a stray shot to the back of the head. According to Blackarachnia's Collector's Club bio, she and Nightscream killed Optimus Primal long before the start of the Uprising stories after he refused to turn on their Autobot masters after the deaths of Siverbolt and Rhinox.

Humans Are the Real Monsters: Sure, mankind may have become a technologically enlightened people, capable of reviving people who've been dead for thousands of years... but they're also arrogant snobs, who won't revive people they don't like, and have boxed the Cybertronians in, not to mention that if they do something they don't like, humanity's perfectly prepared to take what little else they have. Though they're alright if the Cybertronians do something positive. One of the worlds they destroyed was the planet Master, which had been taken over by Galvatron and the Decepticons, forcing the inhabitants, regardless of alignment, to flee to Cybertron to live as second-class (at best) citizens.

We Used to Be Friends

comment
We Used to Be Friends: On a species-wide scale. The hidden text of "Micro-Aggressions" says mankind and the Autobots did work together at first, but by the 2030s, the relationship was pretty much dead. Full-Tilt was Trypticon's Only Friend during the Great War. Unfortunately, Trypticon being forced to permanently convert himself into spaceship mode lead to a lot of brewing resentment, especially when Full-Tilt failed to join Trypticon in hating their Maximal and Predacon crew. Wideload and Goldbug were once best friends and teammates on the Throttlebots during the Great War. Then Hot Rod's disastrous tenure as Autobot leader led a disillusioned Wideload to defect to the Decepticons, destroying their friendship. They only make up at the end, after the Vehicon Apocalypse.

In "Micro-Aggressions", we see their fellow Micromaster buddies hoping for a chance to get back at the Resistance for killing their buddies, who hadn't even been given full fuel rations by the Builder higher-ups, which might've saved them.

Fantastic Racism
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: Some Autobots and Decepticons downsized to Micromasters. The Builders don't treat them any better than they do the Maximals and Predacons. Up until slightly after Megatron's Start of Darkness, Micros weren't even allowed on the Builder council. The Cyberdroids are second-class citizens, just barely above Maximals and Preds, looked down on for their alt-modes usually being either heads or engines. As shown at several points in the story, the Builders don't trust the proto-races to guard them. Either they get Micromasters to do it, or failing that, utterly inefficient and completely bone-brained drones. Meanwhile, post-Singularity humans treat regular old humans like second class citizens. Lord Imperious Delirious is disgusted and horrified by Cybertronian mecha-biology, primarily their sparks which he views as "parasites" controlling robot bodies. It spurs him to invent the Vehicons, to remove the spark from every living thing on the planet. Neither humans nor Cybertronians like each other.

Cyberspace: Apelinq and Saberback are drawn into a sort of mystical cyberspace by the Draco Ziggurat so it can communicate with them properly and "test" the Dinosaur crew's worthiness to stay on Metascan Omega.

Lack of Empathy
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_658f7193
comment
Lack of Empathy: While the Resistance is filled to the brim with extremists, Cybershark manages to be amongst the worst of them simply because he has zero empathy, morality, or understanding of others' feelings. When he sets up Buzzclaw as a patsy to die in Fortress Maximus, he's utterly baffled as to why Ser-Ket or any of the others would be upset or disturbed by it, seeing it as simple pragmatism.

comment
Meaningful Name: Stiletto. She's damn good with knives. Or anything sharp and pointy. Overshoot snarks that the Overcharge drones are well-named, because the Builders paid too much for ludicrously inefficient clunkers. The Maximals got their name from Maxima, who got her name from Fortress Maximus. Meanwhile, the Predacons got their name in part from Preditron.

Conspicuously Public Assassination: In the backstory, Punch/Counterpunch ended his career as an Autobot spy in the Decepticon Justice Division by casually strolling into the Decepticon capital of Helex and murdering the Triumvirate who reported directly to Megatron in broad daylight. The whole incident is looked back on with a mixture of anger and embarrassment by the Decepticons and their Predacon descendants, and the headquarters of the Predacon Secret Police includes a plinth that was once dedicated to "Counterpunch" but now simply says "Helex: Never Forget".

Uniqueness Value: Trans-Mutate and Rampage are Maximal-born Point One Percenters, and apparently the only ones around. When the Builders learnt about them, they tried everything they could to figure out how that happened. The last story reveals they are the only Point One Percenters, and that they're the final result of years of nightmarish experiments.

By the twenty-fourth century AC, they've actually overcome death. As the later stories show however, it didn't take long for Cybertronians to catch up and eventually overcome the humans.

Adaptational Badass: Scylla goes from a ditzy, bad-tempered and easily distracted sort to a full-on badass sea pirate (complete with an Eyepatch of Power). Claw Jaw, normally just background filler if he appears, appears briefly in Derailment portrayed as some kind of unstoppable leviathan in his beast mode. Queen Rage, previously a cutesy Moe one-off character from the Beast Wars Neo manga, is reimagined as a take-no-prisoners warrior-queen who manages to carve out a fortified kingdom as civilization collapses. The Vehicons go from mindless drones that pretty much exploded if so much as sneezed on to an unstoppable juggernaut that manage to take out a significant chunk of Cybertron's population. It helps that they can convert by touch. Rampage, who wasn't exactly a slouch in Beast Wars, gets a boost in sheer toughness, becoming a Point One Percenter, able to regenerate from atoms.

Internal Deconstruction: An especially vicious one for the entire Transformers franchise. The Autobots and Decepticons are barely-distinguishable juntas determined to keep their Forever War going in some form or another out of bloodlust and hedonism, the Maximals and the Predacons are a new generation used as proxies in said war, Grey-and-Grey Morality is everywhere, War Is Hell, Anyone Can Die, the Transformers confined to a scant few worlds by the "Puny Humans" they once protected or attacked, humans that befriend them are deemed "race traitors", lack of Energon and resources is decimating Cybertron, the villain is essentially an AI that finds the idea of Mechanical Lifeforms unnatural and wants to "upgrade" them into soulless purely-mechanical robots, and most of the famous characters are long-dead, living the C-List Fodder to take center stage. It's a tale that takes just about all of the franchise's Saturday-morning clichés and tropes and conventions and tears them all down to tell a grim story of war, morality, death, and the inexorable march of time.

Balkanize Me: At the beginning of the story, before the uprising begins, Cybertron is "united" (in the worst sense) under the Builder Assembly. Once the revolution begins, it's not long before the already-unstable planet fractures and by the end, Cybertron is divided between nine different powers; the Resistance (now the League of Autonomous Proto-States), the Maximal Nation, the Independent Predacus States, the Last Builders, the Neutral City-States, the Moons, Rageland, Shokaract's Domain, and the Darksyders.

comment
For Want of a Nail: The caption comic A Change To The Agenda claims that the crapsack Uprising universe came about because this is an alternate universe where Beast Wars Megatron successfully killed Optimus Prime and in retaliation Blackarachnia poisoned G1 Megatron with her cybervenom. Without Optimus Prime leading the Autobots, the battles they had with the Decepticons were apparently much more destructive, to the point that the highly advanced humans of the Uprising Era sealed the Transformers into a small sector of space and then left them to rot. Apparently, while Unicron did attack Cybertron pretty much as usual, this time around he only ate one of Cybertron's four (well, three afterwards) moons before getting done in. The final story implies that another, pretty major divergence was the absence of the Matrix.

The stone's human name? The Rosetta Stone. Its rightful owners eventually reclaim it but considering the fate of human society, it might have been kinder to leave it on Cybertron.

Necessarily Evil: Grimlock unsurprisingly believes in this, as he planned to release the G-Virus that would turn every Builder present into a raving maniac like G1 Galvatron. Since Builders are totally immobile, Grimlock reasoned that they would thus become harmless, as they wouldn't be able to give coherent commands or plan attacks on the rebels. This also means, however, that Grimlock was more than willing to infect every Maximal and Predacon who happened to be in the area as well. Lio Convoy is willing to deceive and kill if it means overthrowing the Builders and giving the Maximals and Predacons the chance to create their own future.

Alternate Universe
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8430699a
comment
Alternate Universe: Uprising is an alternate universe to the cartoon. In the cartoon's universe, the Autobot and Decepticon war ended with a victory for the former and centuries of peace; here, there was no winner. Expelled by Earth and left confined to Cybertron, the war ground on interminably until their homeworld became so drained of energy that they could no longer power their bodies. This left them a frozen race of living statues with only the smallest among them (Mini-cassettes and Micromasters) left to retain their mobility. Enter the proto-races (aka the Maximals and Predacons), a next-generation of smaller, more energy-efficient Cybertronians who could function in these energy-starved times. The Autobots and Decepticons used them as proxy armies to continue the war in their stead. The centuries passed, and the fighting withered away; society bloomed from the ruined, stagnant planet. The Autobots and Decepticons joined to become the ruling oligarchs, "The Builders," with the Micromasters as their enforcers. The Maximals and Predacons became the civilian underclass kept in line by "The Games"; televised gladiatorial bloodsports in which the Builders periodically forced them to compete.

What Happened to the Mouse?
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_863fa679
comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: "Alone, Together"'s prologue focuses on Rattrap and Botanica leading a group of 'bots to bust Dynobot out of prison. Apart from Botanica getting a mention at the end of "Derailment", they're never heard from again. "Micro-Aggressions" mentions that Hot Rod has the Aerialbots and Protectobots under his command, but despite the planet-shattering war, they're never seen again. In "Intersectionality", Synapse is arrested by the Dinosaur's crew, and told he'll be sent back to Cybertron and put on trial when everything's over. He's never seen again, though one could presume he's either left imprisoned in Dinosaur City or extradited in the aftermath. Trans-Mutate, meanwhile, is entirely absent from Derailment after apparently returning to Cybertron with everyone else. "The Inexorable March" suggests she was looking for answers about her and Rampage's creation. At the climax of "Cultural Appropriation", Monsterous is defeated, and separates back into his component parts. What happened to them afterward is unknown. At the climax of "Safe Spaces", Gaidora is last seen tackling Cheetor and Ser-Ket into the arena, just before the Vehicon Apocalypse breaks loose. Her fate isn't given, but... doesn't look too good for her. In one of the most extreme examples of this trope, humanity as a whole. In the 25th century, the Human Confederacy fell into civil war. In the 124th century this is documented as "The Fall of Man" by Cybertronian historians but what's become of the human race by the 34th century is never revealed.

Mind Rape
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8a4988bb
comment
Mind Rape: Hello, mnemosurgery, for any 'bot who isn't diligent enough in their duties as a fascist thug. Just adding to the creepiness, it's state-sponsored, and no-one seems to have any problem with the idea of Predacons rummaging around in someone's head to remove unpleasant memories. Megatron also has it done to Cryotek, to get control over his slice of the criminal underworld. Some characters do notice that Cryotek's started acting weird afterward, but don't make a big deal of it.

 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8aa0f76
comment
Deconstructed Trope: "A Brush With Infamy" explores exactly what would happen when you have robots the size of cities duking it out - massive environmental damage. During "Derailment", Preditron fights Tripredacus. He gets beaten into the ground and dies. Valiant warrior-king or not, he's severely outclassed by the combiner.

Posthumous Character
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8b568cb7
comment
Posthumous Character: Rhinox, Silverbolt and even the Boss Bot himself, Optimus Primal, are all dead by the time the story begins. Rhinox and Silverbolt because of Predacons. Optimus, however, was killed by Blackarachnia, Nightscream and Cheetor. Cerebros, the actual intelligence behind Fortress Maximus, is long dead. But his thoughts live on inside the cyberdroids that manage his bulk. Eject laments the fact that all the truly great Cybertronians like Optimus Prime, Megatron, Shockwave, Soundwave, Bumblebee, Prowl and Starscream are long gone.

Category Traitor
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8cb01d0e
comment
Category Traitor: The Resistance deem any Maximal or Predacon who side with the Builders as race traitors. Then as the war progresses and the Resistance gets worse, the title of "race traitor" starts getting applied to anyone who dares to be neutral or even Resistance members who object to the constant war crimes, like Snapper or Cheetor. Humanity meanwhile, lists the Witwicky family as criminals (most likely on account of being friends with the robots).

Asshole Victim: Ikard is a weasel who forces captured soldiers to fight to the death, then tries to murder Preditron to make nice with the Tripredacus Alliance. He's one of the first to be infected by the Vehicons. After their centuries of pettiness and spite, and just generally being jerkasses, the Builder Assembly, to a 'bot, get their sparks ganked out and turned into Vehicons by Galva Convoy. After Humanity expels the Transformers and practically treats them like a lesser species than them and nearly become gods, end up internally destroying themselves and become non-important in the future.

Token Good Teammate
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_8f612013
comment
Token Good Teammate: Hot Rod, Full-Tilt, Sunstorm, and Goldbug are about the only Builders who think maybe treating the Predacons and Maximals like crap, and murdering them for utterly petty reasons isn't the best way to go. They're later joined by Buckethead and the Constructicons, who even agree to a cease-fire with the Resistance. Grimlock would count as well, given he's fighting alongside the Resistance, but his ruthless strategies kind of put a kibosh on that. Una is about the only human who shows any sympathy toward Cybertronians. In the last story, she decides to ignore normal regulations and repay the favour when a bunch of them save her and her ship from an attack.

Ignored Epiphany
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_9053903
comment
Ignored Epiphany: Even after the Uprising escalates horribly out-of-control and the Vehicon Apocalypse begins, Grimlock is stubbornly steadfast that his "no matter the costs" attitude was completely justified and the G-Virus was totally a good idea. He only finally begrudgingly admits that he may have been wrong just before dying. In the epilogue, Overshoot and Stiletto reflect on how the events of the series came about in part because the Builders chose to see the aftermath of Thunderwing's rampage (such as the restoration of Cybertron's biodiversity and environment) as a nuisance and threat to their power rather then a sign from the gods that they had a chance to make true peace and equality. Thankfully, the Transformers do not repeat that particular mistake after the Vehicon Apocalypse.

Demonic Possession: Anyone infected by the G-Virus becomes a new body for Galvatron, like Cop-Tur. Grimlock wanted to unleash it on a crowd of builders and render them completely impotent, not caring it'd infect a lot more able-bodied Maximals and Predacons.

Laser-Guided Karma
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_90e31482
comment
Laser-Guided Karma: The Builder Assembly spent four hundred years making everyone else's lives miserable out of petty jealousy, then ordered and condoned the creation of the Vehicons to put down the Uprising when the proto-races had enough of their crap. Then they're betrayed by Galva-Convoy and turned into Vehicons themselves. After four centuries of hounding and oppressing Cybertronians due to the collateral damage of the Great War, humanity's technological empire collapses into brutal civil wars and a new dark age in the 25th century. By the 34th century, they're no longer a concern for Cybertron. Gnashteeth's former underling Budora turns on his boss and suggests maybe it'd be best if he ducked out quietly. Later on, Gnashteeth decides to have a "talk" with Budora.

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_928ca2cc
comment
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Galvatron II recruits "his" old gang, whatever leftover partners of his, Scourge and Cyclonus' that he could find, but by the time of the Vehicon Apocalypse has gotten fed up of them. Afterward, he's got three Vehicon drones ready to go, and all they need is some Sparks... Preditron and Cheetor end up with targets on their backs from the Resistance after they decide the two will be more useful as a martyrs for the cause; Preditron because the Tripredacus Council wants him dead in exchange for their support, Cheetor because he's daring to openly condemn Blackarachnia and Ikard's ruthless tactics. Once Galva Convoy has everything he could need from the Builder Assembly, he immediately has his Vehicons kill or convert them all.

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: In the midst of their raid on the Forever Vaults, the Monster Go-Bots accidentally infect a hapless guard with the G-Virus, and think no more of it. That guard turns into a new Galvatron. Then, during the Vehicon Apocalypse, this Galvatron witnesses Megatron using Waspinator to ward off the Vehicon hordes, and gets inspired to grab some drones of his own, which leads to at least one more bout with them. Poor Optimus Prime in the backstory. How could he have known his Heroic Sacrifice to stop the Swarm from destroying Earth would leave the Transformers forever without a Prime or the Matrix, helping set the stage for the eventual rise of the Builders.

comment
Greater-Scope Villain: The human race. They don't appear very often but they're why the Cybertronians are stuck in such a small part of space with few resources. The original Galvatron. His actions caused the human race to enforce the above blockade on Cybertronians. Unicron. He did a good chunk of the damage to Cybertron and the additional Point One Percenters (Rampage and Transmutate) were created due to many of the survivors of his attack being Point One Percenters. Thunderwing. His shadow looms throughout the series as the Builders came about when the Autobots and Decepticons were forced to unite to defeat him, and the leftovers of his schemes and rampage across Cybertron end up playing a big role in the current conflict, most notably the Grand Mal. The Swarm, the threat that Optimus Prime sacrificed himself and the Matrix to save Earth from, which ended up being one of the big contributors to the Crapsack World status quo at the start of the story.

Foreshadowing: When Wolfang loses a leg to an explosion in a riot, Stiletto notices that the severed limb inexplicably turns from blue to red, but circumstances prevent her from dwelling on this. It's your first hint that Wolfang is actually a Predacon pretending to be a Maximal; the reason the leg changed colors is because Wolfang is actually naturally red colored, but uses a kind of electronic paint to make himself look Maximal blue, so when a part of his body is separated from his whole, it reverts to standard coloration.

Unreliable Expositor: One of Hatchet's main sources for Lio Convoy: Unity through Tyranny is a noted historian...named Pontiff General Rampage. It's never explicitly stated that this is the same Rampage, but between the story's aversion to giving multiple characters the same name and Unity through Tyranny sharing the same hostility to Lio Convoy that Rampage had, it's hard not to connect the dots...which makes his insistence that there was no Protoform X and the Resistance just gave the title to sacrificial dupes look pretty suspicious.

 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_a65288e2
comment
Ascended Extra: Lord Imperious Delirious was a one-off villain in an old, very short-lived comic in the 90s. Alone Together makes him a major character, and he goes on to be a big problem in Intersectionality. Maxima goes from a character who died after barely being on-screen in the "Combiner Wars" machima, to the very first Maximal.

Your Approval Fills Me with Shame: The final push in Lio Convoy's Heel Realization comes when he learns — to his horror and disgust — that Galva Convoy actually idolizes him for his ruthless methods, claiming to embody what the Resistance really stands for; not freedom or justice, just winning at any cost.

Combining Mecha: Not so common on post-war Cybertron, though the Renegades use their combined form, Monsterous, to breach the Forever Vault. Rodimus isn't happy to hear that one. "Cultural Appropriation" reveals that Devastator- albeit a Micromaster-scaled version of his old self- remains an option for the newest incarnation of the Constructicons. Derailment introduces Magnaboss and Tripredacus into the mix.

Good Cannot Comprehend Evil: Wolfang demands to know why Tarantulas betrayed the Predacon Secret Police, given it took a great deal of moral development and realizing his place in the world for Wolfang to do the same. He is disturbed and somewhat baffled when Tarantulas bluntly responds that he, unlike Wolfang, just plain didn't care about the Predacon cause, or anything really other then his science and personal gain.

Demoted to Extra: In contrast to the Darksyders from the original Beast Wars cartoon, who almost all get pretty significant appearances, the Axalon crew are reduced to mostly minor characters, with only Cheetor, Tigatron, and Airazor having notable roles. Optimus Primal, Rhinox, Silverbolt, and Nightscream are dead before this plot begins, Depth Charge is stranded in the Shattered Glass universe, and Dinobot, Rattrap, and Botanica make only brief appearances in one story.

Hot Rod, Full-Tilt, Sunstorm, and Goldbug are about the only Builders who think maybe treating the Predacons and Maximals like crap, and murdering them for utterly petty reasons isn't the best way to go. They're later joined by Buckethead and the Constructicons, who even agree to a cease-fire with the Resistance. Grimlock would count as well, given he's fighting alongside the Resistance, but his ruthless strategies kind of put a kibosh on that.

Shout-Out
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Plasma tends to talk in shout-outs, usually in poetry (though she also quotes The Beatles). Dante the Cyberdroid wasn't even supposed to be here today! And like in the planned ending of Clerks, he ends up getting killed. In the backstory, the EDC was formed from G.I. Joe's Star Brigade. Cobra gets a mention in the opening of Cultural Appropriation. The humans maintain the Treaty of Prysmos, the name of the planet from short-lived Hasbro property Visionaries. The Human Confederacy fleet look and act an awful lot like the Federation from Star Trek. Captain Blix even has a sash like Worf. The Builders' last-ditch order to make sure the Vehicons don't come near them is General Order 66. In the 124th century, Cybertronian historians believe that the Solstar Order represented humanity during the drafting of the Pax Cybertronia. Megatron and Scorponok's story in Identity Politics, that of someone forced into crime, which he turns out to be really good at, and becomes more ruthless as he goes on, takes some cues from Breaking Bad. Ikard orders a drink, hot, much like one Captain Picard likes his earl grey hot. The Convoy Council of the 34th century are reluctant to go outside the Milky Way to avoid "lions, tigers and bears", as Megalo Convoy puts it. Micromaster Run-Over speaks only in quote from The Simpsons. It's quite easy to do so—in this universe, the show ran for several thousand episodes (at the time the story was written, it was a little over 600).

 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_cf1b706e
comment
Flat-Earth Atheist: Thanks to information creep, loss of records, and the general march of time, there's a disturbingly growing number of Transformers who doubt the existence of supernatural beings and events like Unicron or the Swarm, despite evidence of their existence being plentiful and despite the massive impact these things had (including the deaths of millions). Deluge realized long ago that this phenomena would leave Cybertron defenseless if another great paranormal and disastrous event occurred, so he decided to do something about it; creating mutant Transformers like Rampage and Trans-Mutate.

Hoist by His Own Petard
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_d397657d
comment
Hoist by His Own Petard: A double-version at that: the Builders of Cybertron who forced the Maximals and Predacons to fight for their amusement are sent to the Games to entertain the troops. Unfortunately for the Resistance, those Builder POWs were also infected with the Vehicon virus and quickly overrun the Resistance's capital after succumbing. Tarantulas uses the Robo-Smasher to mind control Grimlock and use him as an enforcer. Then the Ex-Bots use a jamming signal to disrupt the Robo-Smasher's effects, and Tarantulas ends up beaten senseless by the pissed off Dinobot he had been enslaving. In the final battle, Lio Convoy deliberately lets himself get infected with the Vehicon virus then tackles Galva Convoy, who is promptly infected and killed by his own bioweapon because he shares the same CNA as Lio and the virus can't distinguish between the two.

Adaptational Wimp: In Transformers Cybertron, Vector Prime was the guardian of space/time being capable of freezing time and accessing a pocket dimension. Here he's just a regular Cybertronian. This is due to the final text story being released after the in-universe event The Shrouding wherein Nexus Prime strengthened the barriers between the multiverse and split all multiversal singularities including himself and Vector Prime as members of the Thirteen into infinite versions of themselves and many don't have their powers.

Small, Secluded World: Relatively speaking. The events of the series are confined to the "Allowed Zone", the tiny bubble of space around Cybertron that the Human Confederacy lets the Builders rule over and consisting of only Cybertron and four colonies (formerly eight colonies, but Galvatron went and blew that). Only one story even bothers to really leave Cybertron itself for any extended period.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide"
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_de56f2bf
comment
Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide": The Targetmaster Extirpation. During Thunderwing's rampage, he demonstrated that the Targetmasters' ability to draw on the power of their partners' sparks for stronger attacks could be modified to allow them to go straight up leech the life force from other Transformers. The Builders decided this made the Targetmasters too dangerous to be in any side's hands, so after the war ended, they exiled the Targetmasters to a distant planet on the pretense of leaving them to live in peace. Instead, once the Targetmasters were all gathered, they were slaughtered and buried in a mass grave by their own former allies, with Autobot and Decepticon alike taking part. Only a few escaped this fate thanks to Blurr and Hyperfire warning as many of their old war buddies as they could, with the survivors going into hiding and pretending to be normal cyberdroids.

comment
Continuity Snarl: The screen capture comic A Change to The Agenda presents the Uprising universe as the result of the Maximals failing to stop Megatron from killing Optimus Prime, leading Blackarachnia to kill the original G1 Megatron in retaliation. This doesn't fit with previously established facts from the preceding stories. In particular, if Megatron had died millions of years ago, then Galvatron—stated to be prominent figure in the last Great War—shouldn't exist at all. The comic was apparently made without the input of the writers of the series.

History Repeats
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_e003c829
comment
History Repeats: A big theme of the story is the cyclical nature of history, and the struggle to break those cycles: The Malignus of Rebirth sided with the Decepticons to throw off an oppressive, autocratic regime. The end result was they were forced off of their planet by humans, and wound up under the thumb of an oppressive, autocratic regime. 11 million years ago, Cybertron was a technologically powerful society that became factionalized and fell into brutal civil wars. In the 24th century, humanity is technologically powerful and became factionalized. By the 34th century, humanity has fallen into civil wars. Both in a meta sense and an in-universe one, the final story ends with two Cybertronian ships crash-landing on an unknown planet.

Stockade the 2003 Universe tank-bot and Stockade the 2008 Universe Triceratops are made the same character.

Mercy Kill: Ser-Ket kills Ikard to save him from becoming a Vehicon, figuring even someone as awful as him doesn't deserve that. He thanks her as he dies.

In Mysterious Ways
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_f4edd0ac
comment
In Mysterious Ways: It is heavily implied that the Oracle is subtly nudging things throughout the story to bring about a better outcome, or at least to give the Transformers a fighting chance. However, the way it does so are subtle, obscure, and indirect, with outright Divine Intervention (such as making Overshoot into a Spirit Advisor) being rare at best, as the Oracle is only to guide mortals not rule over them. This is emphasized towards the end, as Overshoot explicitly states that the Transformers have to choose to make a better future in the aftermath of the Vehicon Apocalypse for it to happen, and forge that better future themselves.

Never Found the Body: Grimlock seemingly dies in the finale when he suicide-bombs a tower to turn the tide against the Vehicons, but afterwards no body can be found, raising questions about just what happened to him.

Great Offscreen War
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_f722f635
comment
Great Offscreen War: The Great War between the Autobots and Decepticons is treated as this, naturally. It casts a large shadow over the events of the series and we get some summaries/hints/references to events from it, but the closest we get to actually seeing any of it is a brief flashback to a very minor skirmish at the start of "Cultural Appropriation". As events play out on Cybertron, it's intimated that a much bigger and more destructive schism/civil war is brewing out in the Human Confederacy between it's various factions, particularly two known as the Traditionalists and the Celestials. We never see any of this, just have it indirectly described or hinted at.

 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_f8e010ce
comment
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Cybershark simply can't fathom why Ser-Ket would be upset about the Resistance using Buzzclaw as a disposable patsy and callously killing him when the time comes. It was for the greater good! Galva Convoy is straight-up Obliviously Evil, not really understanding why the Transformers would object to being "upgraded" into mindless, soulless Vehicons, or why Lio Convoy would be disturbed by him spouting the exact sort of "do what's necessary" rhetoric the Resistance has been using.

The Remnant
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_f9c17447
comment
The Remnant: Cybertron itself, thanks to humanity, who eventually got fed up of their actions. Three hundred years ago the Autobots and Decepticons were given only four colonies. By the time the story starts, they'd been brought down to one, while the Autobots and Decepticons continue pointless fighting rather than trying to rebuild their society.

Merger of Souls
 Beast Wars: Uprising (Comic Book) / int_fb0382ea
comment
Merger of Souls: In the backstory, Thunderwing, upon gaining the power of the Underbase, assimilated the souls of the Mayhem Attack Squad into his own, transforming himself up into a nightmarish Humanoid Abomination that tried to destroy Cybertron and was only brought down by the Autobots and Decepticons working together… thus leading to the end of the Great War and the formation of the Builders of Cybertron. Lord Imperious Delirious is the result of nearly the entire population of Gorlam Prime doing this to themselves via mass-Brain Uploading. The result is the very definition of a Mechanical Abomination.

Canon Immigrant: Many, many, many Mini-Cons show up repurposed as Micromasters. Ser-Ket, a character from one of IDW's "Fall of Cybertron" tie-ins, shows up in "Head Games". In a slightly more literal fashion, a handful of Go-Bot Renegades who escaped the near-destruction of their universe have infiltrated the Predacons. Twirl, of the "Linkage" mini-comic, is an important character of Trigger Warnings, as is Over-Run, Armada Optimus' other Mini-Con partner. "Identity Politics" introduces Budora, of the "Go" Anime. He's later followed by Gaidora in "Safe Spaces". Some of the Decepticons from RID 2015 (Thunderhoof, Bisk and Paralon) make a appearance with the former showing up running a gang in Iacon. Strongarm is wired into the Maximal Command Security Force building, while Springload, Quillfire and Steeljaw appear through Derailment. The Builder held hostage by the Monster Renegades is Highline, a character from the first movie's toyline. Tidal Wave appears as a battleship in "Derailment". The conclusion of "The Inexorable March" has the good guy ship crewed by 'bots from the aborted Chinese version of Transformers: Online.

Pet the Dog: Given their severe, often petty and irrational, attitudes towards Cybertronians, the fact that humanity let them keep the Energon Matrix is nothing short of astounding. Of all the infiltration team, Survive is the only one to offer Ser-Ket legit consolation for being duped after Buzzclaw gets a spike to the brain.
