Shattered Glass Prime is a web comic depicting a Mirror Universe of Transformers: Prime mixed with elements of other Transformers continuities such as Transformers: Animated and The Transformers (IDW) by DeviantArt artist, SoundBluster. Volume 1 begins here. It centers around a small group of Decepticons stranded on Earth, led by Megatron, after their ship the ''Nemesis' is shot down by Autobot forces. Said Autobot forces, a crew consisting mostly of disgraced Autobot officers indlucing their leader Ultra Magnus, have been tasked with retrieving the key to Vector Sigma by the Autobot's tyrannical overlod Optimus Prime, in order to decide once and for all the brutal civil war raging on their home planet Cybertron and its colonies. Though initially trying their best to keep hidden with the help of the American government and their liaison agent Fowler, the Decepticons are forced to reveal themselves to protect the human teenagers Miko and Jack, who, along with the curious Raf, become their human partners and allies. But the Autobots aren't the only villainous faction the Decepticons have to worry about: MECH, a human extremist organization led by an ominous figure known only as Silas, and the mercenaries Arcee and Cliffjumper, whose employer aims to carry out a centuries-old vendetta against all of Cybertron, also seek to use Earth to further their own plans. | |

Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_1049848f | comment |
Aliens Speaking English: Justified, since the Decepticons have been on Earth for a good while and have spent the majority of their time in the United States. Averted for Megatron's and Starscream's first meeting with Fowler. Megatron actually didn't know how to speak English at that time and had to download that knowledge mid-conversation. His first sentence to Fowler is entirely in Cybertronian before he manages to switch. | |

Punch-Clock Villain | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_20860a0e | comment |
Punch-Clock Villain: A few of the Autobots qualify: Nautica, the chief engineer on the Hyperion, was drafted into the Autobot forces after her home planet allied itself with the Autobots, and despite relishing the chance to see the wider galaxy, has doubts about her place serving the Autobots. Bulkhead is the chief of mining operations for the Hyperion crew who only works for the Autobots out of necessity and could care less about the Autobot cause or functionism. Later chapters show that he may not have even been given a choice in joining thanks to being Shadowplayed by Slipstream. Pharma is an Autobot medic who was ordered to dispose of Soundwave after his fateful encounter with Optimus that cost him his voice and face. After discovering Soudwave was Not Quite Dead, he instead opted to patch up the worst of his wounds, and leave him to be found by his fellow Decepticons. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: In Prime, Airachnid's spider-like features and connection to the Insecticons went unexplained. Given that she's a central character in this comic, she's given a much more detailed backstory, establishing her as a subset of Insecticon and featuring her fellow spider-formers Blackarachnia and Tarantulus. The Fantastic Caste System Cybertron operated on pre-war, along with the immense social inequality it brought, was only barely mentioned in Prime when Ratchet admits there were issues with Cybertronian society even before the Decepticons started to go off the deep end. Here, the caste system and the characters' stances on it are an important part of the plot, with most of the Decepticons rightfully abhorring it for its cruelty while most of the Autobots see it as the rightful Prime-given order that must be enforced at all costs, lest Cybertron fall into chaos. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Megatron's explanation as to why his faction are calling themselves Decepticons in an ask is word for word the same as his original series counterpart's answer of the same question to an amnesiac Orion Pax in "Orion Pax, Part 1". Only this time it's completely sincere and true. Trypticon saved his crew from an Autobot ambush by paralyzing them with stasis beams and then using his internal space bridge to warp them to Earth. His counterpart in Prime did the same thing to his crew in "Flying Mind", but his motives were much less benevolent. A map of the Cybertronian colony world Aquatron states that the planet's liberation was aided by a rogue quintesson named Aquarius, a heroic quintesson from the original Shattered Glass comics. It's also mentioned that Aquarius spends much of his current time stoned of experimental drugs. A likely nod to the original Aquarius' hippie theme. | |

Electric Torture: Windblade does this to Starscream in the supplementary comic "Just Talke To Me!" She doesn't come into the interrogation aching to do so and in fact, tries to get Starscream to give her information by just asking him for it. After Starscream calls her out hard on her Condescending Compassion and general hypocrisy though, she's real quick to pick up an energon prod and mercilessly torture him. | |

Aliens Are Bastards | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_3a90dc63 | comment |
Aliens Are Bastards: The Autobots, as per usual in Shattered Glass. They're a faction brimming with Fantastic Racism and adhering to a Fantastic Caste System, seeing a Cybertronians' worth purely in their altmode and thinking of every other race as inferior at best. The Quintessons. They're a race of half-organic, half-mechanoid beings who see all fully mechanoid races as nothing more than machines to be used for slave labor. They even occupied all of Cybertron in a past war and exploited it's population until the Cybertronians succesfully fought back and slayed their leader Deeseus, forcing them to retreat. However, Volume 2 reveals that Deeseus is still alive and kicking and that he might have redirected his attention to Earth. However, a page detailing the landmarks of the planet Aquatron reveals that an areas used to brainwash slaves was also used to brainwash quintessons who felt sympathy for them, as well as the planet's freedom was gained in part from the aid of a quintesson named Aquarius. | |

Bad Boss: Optimus Prime's insanity, delusional believe that he's The Chosen One and tendency to brutalize his own troops makes him an unstable and mercurial leader at best. Ultra Magnus isn't much better, showing little regard to the drones under his command and demoting and punishing his crew if they fail him even once. | |

All Webbed Up: Airachnid's go-to strategy when in battle, as she'd rather incapacitate opponents than kill them. Gets used against her in Volume 2, as Arcee correctly deduces Airachnid's hesitance to kill to mean she's never done so before and uses that to break free from the webbing and mode-lock Airahcnide into her motorcycle altmode. | |

Big Bad Ensemble: While Optimus is treated as the biggest threat overall, several other antagonists take a way more active role in the story than he does, due to him currently being stuck on Cybertron with no idea of the Nemesis crew's whereabouts. Major enemies on Earth include the Hyperion crew lead by Ultra Magnus, Arcee and Cliffjumper (who are employed by Deeseus) and Silas and MECH, all of which have their own goals and interests concerning Earth. | |

Covers Always Lie: The cover for Volume 2 depicts Airachnid in battle with Optimus Prime, apparently in the middle of webbing him up. Optimus isn't even on Earth at this point in the story and the Autobot Airachnid ends up having a climactic battle with in Volume 2 is Arcee, not Optimus. | |

God Is Evil: Primus in the Shattered Glass universe, is a cruel perfectionist who "deletes" any species that doesn't meet his standards, up to and including his own first creation Prima. He's also The Man Behind the Man for Optimus, having corrupted Vector Sigma into making Optimus into a twisted version of a Prime after the Matrix of Leadership rejected him. | |

Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_77666408 | comment |
In the main series Soundwave is a nigh-unstoppable silent menace, whose Combat Tentacles and teamwork with Laserbeak make short work of anyone foolish enough to challenge him head-on. Soundwave in this comic is not only a fair bit smaller that his mainverse counterpart, but also physically weaker, struggling against opponents like Strongarm, whom he practically wiped the floor with when they came to blows in the mainverse. | |

Handicapped Badass: Soundwave had his voicebox torn out and his face disfigured to the point of having to have it replaced with a blank black visor, but he didn't let that keep him down for long. In the present, he's one of Megatron's most trusted lieutenants and, while not on his mainverse counterpart's level, still a capable warrior in the field. An evil version with Ultra Magnus, who had his hand chopped off by Optimus Prime as punishment for his attempted coup during the war, but is still a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. | |

Demonization: In a twist of the original series' set-up, it's the Autobot government doing this to the Decepticons, portraying them as Ax-Crazy Bomb-Throwing Anarchists who seek Cybertron's destruction by tearing down the caste system to the general populace. The very name 'Decepticon' is basically a slur, made up of the words Con (Constructed) and deception/deceitful. The Decepticons chose to wear the name as a badge of honor, because if speaking truth is deception, they're gladly guilty. | |

Word of God explains that this applies to most characters when compared to their canon counterpart, with Decepticons generally being smaller while most Autobots are larger to fit in with the cartoon trope of villains being bigger than the heroes. | |

Subverted Trope | |

The Quintessons. They're a race of half-organic, half-mechanoid beings who see all fully mechanoid races as nothing more than machines to be used for slave labor. They even occupied all of Cybertron in a past war and exploited it's population until the Cybertronians succesfully fought back and slayed their leader Deeseus, forcing them to retreat. However, Volume 2 reveals that Deeseus is still alive and kicking and that he might have redirected his attention to Earth. However, a page detailing the landmarks of the planet Aquatron reveals that an areas used to brainwash slaves was also used to brainwash quintessons who felt sympathy for them, as well as the planet's freedom was gained in part from the aid of a quintesson named Aquarius. | |

Bumblebee in the mainverse is an incredibly competent and heroic scout, who, as Smokescreen puts it, is able to tangle with the best of them.

Ambiguously Gay: The comic at first played it a bit coy with the exact nature of Knock Out's and Breakdown's relationship, not helped by Knock Out's dramatic personality having been turned down significantly from his mainverse counterpart's constant Camp Gay antics. This was eventually subverted for good in Volume 2, where their relationship is explicitly stated to be romantic, as well as being confirmed in a bunch of supplementary material. | |

The Decepticons actively defy this by choosing names for themselves to replace their original numbers. The Autodrones start to defy it as well as the comic goes on, but aren't as open about it. | |

Dirty Cop: Strongarm has no qualms about fabricating evidence or physically assaulting someone to provoke them into fighting back so she can bring them in on charges of assaulting an officer. | |

Fantastic Caste System | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_edcc813f | comment |
Fantastic Caste System: Before the war, Cybertron had a strict caste system, featuring manuals like the future Megatron, archivists such as Orion Pax, and "disposables" that included Soundwave and his Minicons. The Autobots continue to uphold it under Optimus Prime's regime, while the Decepticons have opposed it ever since their formation as a movement. | |

The Starscream | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_eedee4d | comment |
The Starscream: While the named Starscream is genuinely loyal to the Decepticons, Ultra Magnus once tried to usurp power from Optimus after nearly killing him, and it appears that Strongarm seeks to oppose the former as well out of loyalty to the latter. Ultra Magnus himself also still hasn't given up on overthrowing Optimus. | |

Great Offscreen War | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_f722f635 | comment |
Great Offscreen War: Twofold. The war against the Quintessons was a pivotal event in Cybertron's history, directly leading to the return of the Primes with Infinitus' ascension to Sentinel Prime and subsequent defeat of the Quintessons' leader, as well as the instation of the caste system to speed along the rebuilding of Cybertron's infrastructure. Several characters are old enough to be veterans of that war, but we only see some of it in Shockwave's forced flashbacks in Volume 3. Zig-zagged with the war on Cybertron between the Autobots and the Decepticons. Unlike in the original series, Cybertron is ravaged by war, but not completely dead. The conflict is also still going, due to the lack of an exodus from the planet by both sides, but the plot mainly centers around the fighting on Earth with only brief cutaways to Cybertron and how the 'Cons are holding up there. | |

The Fundamentalist: Starscream and Knock Out butted heads over the validity of Unicron and Primus's existences in Volume 1. | |

You Killed My Father: Leader and Sister, actually, but Airachnid has a deep hatred of Arcee for killing the Insecticon Queen and Blackarachnia in the past. | |

The Corrupter | |
Shattered Glass Prime (Webcomic) / int_fe6c146e | comment |
The Corrupter: According to the associated mini-comics, Dai Atlas of the Cybertronian Senate was the one who manipulated Orion Pax into having him question the success of the Decepticons' goals and then goaded him into assassinating Sentinel Prime when the latter was starting to support Megatron. Although it's downplayed as the epilogue shows that Orion always had power-hungry tendencies, Dai Atlas only made them worse. | |
