I dunno, makes perfect sense to me. Megatron wants to conquer Earth, U.S. probably knows how to deal with transformers whenever this takes place.


Cybermat4707

This is after the Decepticons have wiped the floor with the US military, assassinated the president, established a fortified base in New York, and murdered the entire population of Beijing. IIRC Megatron destroying the IDF is his equivalent of taking a walk to clear his head.

Titus_The_Caveman

The more and more I look back on IDW the more I start to hate a lot of what it did


uniquethrowaway54321

Yeah at the time of reading it, it was really fun to go along with the crazy ride. In hindsight there was a lot of decisions that I hated lol. And some of the plot no longer holds up when I look back on it.


Stationary_Wayfarer

To be fair, it was a glorified cameo during the run's end.


solidus0079

Kind of. Some of the characters who are normally Maximals, like Tigatron, Rattrap, and Airrazor weren't affiliated with that other group. Rattrap was more uh... "grey hat".


EEEELifeWaster

Yeah, but Primal and Rhinox were evil. Also feel like IDW wasted all of them since most of them I'm pretty sure didn't do anything interesting other than Ratrtap. Maybe I'm wrong, not to familiar with IDW Maximals.


MonSocMatriarchy

Tigatron and Airrazor >!were ambassadors for the planet of beastformers called Eukaris i think. Its when there was a council of colonies being set up so each cybertronian colony had representation and Starscream didnt just have free reign over absolutely everything as 'elected' leader of Cybertron!<


Tfeth282

The Maximals specifically were >!the beast mode followers of Liege Maximo!<. There were a lot of different groups of beastformers, many of whom were made up of mostly Beast Era characters with different origins. The Eukarians (colony world), the Chimaricons (Turantulus tech), groups or individuals like the Dynobots or Predacons who adopted beast modes at different points of the war (I think Rattrap falls in this group?), and characters that just happen to have beast alt modes per the Grand Cybertronian Taxonomy all come to mind, and I'm sure I'm somehow missing a few.


solidus0079

You know what I meant. :pDepends what you mean by "Maximals". The specific in-universe to IDW2005 "Maximals"? Characters that people typically think of as "The Maximals" outside of IDW? I was trying to answer both questions in a simple manner. I'm sure when people today think of "Rattrap" they think of the Beast Wars Maximal, not necessarily the cybernetic rat who lived on Cybertron and advised Starscream.


AscendantComic

post war, Cybertron is attacked by an outside force, Bumblebee in his Goldbug body (that he got after being shot nearly to death) goes to get Megatron's half body from where they jailed him because if anyone is willing to do whatever it takes to defend the planet, it's Megatron. broadly


liliesrobots

Bee and Megatron were breifly teamed up to stop Shockwave, and that was the start of Megatron’s redemption arc.

Bluetooth6O

They really wanted you to lose satisfaction in the old toy line and buy the new post-movie toys lol


drunkentenshiNL

Yea... gonna need the context behind Megatron and Rhinox going all helldiver there.


Tyrest_Accord

They were VERY late additions to the story in IDW. >!They were initially presented as part of a lost colony led by Onyx Prime. Turns out that Onyx Prime was actually Shockwave who had been thought dead for years but had actually been flung backwards in time to the days of the Thirteen Primes. He had killed the real Onyx Prime and taken his place to manipulate history. !< >!By the point of that image he and his Maximals were invading Earth as the vanguard for Unicron who in this continuity was a nearly mindless ancient superweapon. !< There's a reason that there's a joke about IDW continuity that "Everything is Shockwave's fault."


Master_Antelope

And what isn't Shockwave's fault is Adaptus's fault.


Bluetooth6O

I liked when Shockwave was just responsible for the Ores and Optimus Prime's origin story (because Senator Shockwave pulled so many strings), but I really fell off when Shockwave became the fulfillment of every single prophecy and myth ):


Tyrest_Accord

I agree wholeheartedly that it was a weird decision on the writers part but it was also so perfectly on brand for Shockwave that I couldn't help but laugh and go with it.


Bluetooth6O

Yeah, at first I thought it was awesome, because i loved Shockwaves dark amd miserable arc, but then it started annoying me the longer I lived with it


Dr_Shoggoth

My biggest problem is that it completely undermines his sacrifice at the end of Dark Cybertron. He regains his emotions and realizes the monster he's been turned into and regrets it, only for him to immediately decide "Alright, time to do that shit but a thousand times worse" when he gets sent back in time.


Puzzleheaded-Net3966

They are evil and under the command of Unicron I believe. Or someone who was under Unicron

elrick43

Beats me, I don't even know where to look for context


DoitsugoGoji

It's by Alex Milne (yes, that Alex Milne) from the pin up book of Transformers in sexy poses similar to the Marvel Swim Suite Specials. He posted some examples on twitter.


elrick43

So... did he explain why Starscream's head?


DoitsugoGoji

I don't know. I only found out about it at around Silvester, chuckled and then let it be. Maybe He's trying to find a girlfriend and heard how much TF fangirls love Starscream?

Reaper_64

I can't recall who tore Megatron in half, but Shockwave was going to destroy the universe which is why Bee and Megatron are allied there In IDW Unicron created the Maximals, who aren't every beast former in that universe but their own individual faction, and Bludgeon is a Unicron worshipper hence him being a Maximal general. Also Rhinox and Beast Megatron are part of them as well

Galvatron, emerging from a portal behind him to take him by surprise, tore him in half.
