'''Bulkhead deals with some cheap knockoffs; Lockdown and Blackarachnia have a lunar showdown.'''

=="The Insincerest Form of Flattery"==
===Synopsis===
At the [[Annual Auto/Robo Show]] in the [[Detroit Convention Center]], corporate slimeball [[Porter C. Powell]] is unveiling [[Powell Motorworks]]' newest consumer vehicle line: the [[Bulkhead (vehicle)|Bulkhead]], a gas-guzzling "mega van" inspired by [[Bulkhead (Animated)|the Autobot of the same name]]. Bulkhead himself, naturally, is deeply unenthusiastic about his name and [[Alternate mode|altmode]] being appropriated in such a way, and crashes the press event to make his feelings known; Powell retorts that, as said altmode was based upon an existing Powell Motorworks vehicle in the first place, Bulkhead has no rights to any [[trademark]], and proceeds to conveniently edit the Autobot's words of protest into a glowing recommendation. Soon, the streets of Detroit are flooded with the oversized and poorly constructed vehicles, with even [[Angry Archer|Detroit's]] [[Professor Princess|supervillains]] getting in on the Bulkhead action, causing danger and confusion to Autobots and humans alike.

Realizing that the slapdash manufacturing of the Bulkhead [[Knockoff|knockoffs]] are making them a hazard as well as a nuisance, Bulkhead formulates a plan to trap Powell; at ''[[Pimp My Bulkhead]]'', a Powell Motorworks design competition for custom-painted Bulkheads, the sleazy CEO is tricked into boarding a Powell-themed vehicle, driven by a mysterious hooded figure, which proceeds to take him on a dangerous high-speed joyride, during which a terrified Powell confesses the perilous design flaws of the unit. The vehicle, of course, turns out to be the real Bulkhead [[Repaint|repainted]], and the hooded figure a hidden camera which has captured Powell's entire confession, forcing a recall of the defective vehicles.

===Quotes===
"And I suppose you've registered the patent and copyrighted your name and image."<br>
"Uh... no."
:—'''Porter C. Powell''' informs '''Bulkhead''' that he's just lost the [[trademark]] on his own name. Don't worry, Bulkhead: just rename yourself "[[Blastification|Autobot Bulkblast]]", and you should be right as rain.

"Curse this unwieldy gargantuan! My kingdom for a hybrid!"
:—The '''Angry Archer''' regrets not listening to Al Gore.

"What I can't figure out is who in their right processor would want to ride around in such a gaudy custom paint job in the first place"
:—'''Ratchet''' speaks out on the evils of [[neon]] [[Repaint|repaints]].

===Errors===
None

===Items of Note===
* Bulkhead's altmode was already a mass-produced vehicle: an armored personnel carrier.
====Real-world references====
* The Angry Archer paraphrases "A horse! A horse! My Kingdom for a horse!" from Shakespeare's ''[[wikipedia:Richard III (play)|Richard III]]''.
* The tendency of the Bulkhead to detonate on impact due to a faulty gas tank is likely a reference to the [[wikipedia:Ford Pinto|Ford Pinto]], which had a similar problem.
* Powell invites the people of Detroit to "[[wikipedia:Pimp My Ride|Pimp My Bulkhead]]".
* Powell refers to the Bulkhead as "unsafe at any speed", a reference to ''[[wikipedia:Unsafe at Any Speed|Unsafe at Any Speed]]'', a 1965 expose of the auto industry by [[wikipedia:Ralph Nader|Ralph Nader]].

=="A Few Loose Strands"==
===Synopsis===
At the Decepticon headquarters on [[New Kaon]], [[Lockdown (Animated)|Lockdown]] is hired by [[Blitzwing (Animated)|Blitzwing]] to bring in the Autobot presumed responsible for [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron's]] death and is allowed to name his price—specifically, [[Lugnut]]'s "[[Punch of Kill Everything]]". Tracking the ''[[Nemesis (Animated)|Nemesis]]'' to the location of its crash on the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]], Lockdown, through use of the security footage, determines that a repair crew led by [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] was responsible. At that moment, however, he is suddenly ambushed by [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]], who unbeknownst to him is also investigating the crashed hulk of the Nemesis.

Not willing to risk the bounty hunter finding the [[AllSpark (Animated)|AllSpark]] before her, Blackarachnia attempts to dissuade him from investigating Earth, but Lockdown doesn't take kindly to her interference, and the pair come to blows. Seemingly incapacitated, Blackarachnia uses her download ability on Lockdown, knocking him out, but she is immediately overwhelmed by the sheer number of powers and modifications she ends up taking from him, and passes out herself.

When Lockdown comes to, Blackarachnia is seemingly gone. Dismissing this, he boards his [[Death's Head (Animated)|ship]] and heads down to Detroit in pursuit of his real target, Optimus Prime, little realising that Blackarachnia, stowing away aboard his ship and hidden from its scanners thanks to her techno-organic make-up, has hitched a free ride to Earth and is now hot in pursuit of the very same Autobot...

===Featured characters===
{{featuredcharacters
|c2=
* [[Lockdown (Animated)|Lockdown]] (1)
* [[Blitzwing (Animated)|Blitzwing]] (2)
* [[Lugnut]] (3)
* [[Oil Slick (Animated)|Oil Slick]] (4)
* [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]] (5)
}}

===Quotes===
* None yet identified.

===Errors===
* Despite being set before "[[Lost and Found (episode)|Lost and Found]]", Lugnut and Blitzwing are depicted with their Earthmode bodies.
* Similarly, Blackarachnia is using her [[:Image:AniBlackarachniaPromoModel.jpg|discarded early character model]], rather than the final version. It can't be a pre-Earth form, as Blackarachnia's whole deal is her inability to alter her form. (The early version was also used in the [[Transform and Roll Out|pilot episode]], but was replaced by her second appearance.)

===Items of Note===
* In the background of page 13, [[Lugnut]] can be seen crushing the "infidel" [[Oil Slick (Animated)|Oil Slick]] in his grip for ''daring'' to suggest that mighty Megatron might be [[Death|offline]].
* Speaking of Luggy, that page was also used to [[Canonizing|canonize]] the name of his [[Punch of Kill Everything]].

====Transformers references====
* The walls of the Decepticon headquarters are adorned with artifacts including the [[Movie (franchise)|live-action movie]] [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]'s energy sword and [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]'s null ray.
* Among the trophies seen on Lockdown's ship are the disembodied head of [[Bug Bite (G1)|a white-coloured Bumblebee]] and what appears to be the [[Matrix of Leadership]].
* "A Few Loose Strands" takes place immediately prior to "[[The Thrill of the Hunt]]", and also reveals how Blackarachnia got to Earth in "[[Along Came a Spider]]".

====Real-world references====
* The final panel with Blackarachnia is blatantly [[Spider-Man]]-ny, down to her holding the tangled, Todd-McFarlane-esque "spaghetti" web-line.

==Covers (3)==
* '''Cover A:''' Porter C. Powell looms menacingly over Bulkhead; art and colors by [[Marcelo Matere]].
* '''Cover B:''' A poncho-clad Lockdown faces Blackarachnia; art and colors by [[Josh Burcham]].
