“Revenge of The Decepticons Part 4: Burning Chrome”

In "Revenge of The Decepticons Part 4: Burning Chrome," Prime leads the Autobots in a desperate stand against Megatron, who reveals a chilling twist: captured Autobots are trapped in a city rigged with weapons drawn from his former gun form. With Megatron untouchable in his new guise, Prime must break Soundwave’s control by targeting him directly—just as Spike struggles to protect two freed humans from a hostile police officer who nearly intervenes. Written by Mike Costa and illustrated by Alex Milne, with colors by Andrew Dalhouse and Romulo Fajardo and letters by Shawn Lee, this pivotal issue delivers high-stakes tension and emotional weight. The cover by Marcelo Matere captures the moment’s intensity.

Prime and his Autobot contingent confront Megatron, who tells Prime that the Autobots he captured have been left in a city to be destroyed by weapons that were once part of his old persona (gun form). Prime then shoots Soundwave to break his control over them, since he knew Megatron couldn't be hurt in his new form and wasn't controlling them. Meanwhile, Spike tries to stop 2 humans from destroying them, and realizes they've been freed from Soundwave, but a police officer on scene thinks about dx'ing the bots, but is hit by Jazz impulsively before anything else happens to them.
