A profound and moving narrative that forces the audience to re-evaluate all conceptions of their identity. Both thrilling and immersive, "'''The Beast Within'''" redefines the era as it forces a new standard of storytelling. Starting on an epic battle comparable to ''The Lord of the Rings'' or ''The Matrix,'' but the conflict pales in comparison to the internal emotional struggle of Grimlock as he is forced to restrain his own emotions for the sake of his tactical ideology. Pushed to both physical and psychological limits, he and his compatriots do the unthinkable and fuse, physically and conceptually, into a unified truth that mirrors us all. But with the revelation of this most sacred ability comes a new threat to the Autobots... a threat that is somehow familiar.

Neat huh.

*''Originally published:'' Part 1 - May 2004; Part 2 - August 2004

==Synopsis==
[[Image:butwhy.gif|left|200px|thumb|Yes, this thing is [[canon]]. I hate you all.]]

===Part 1===
In the war-torn battlefields of an Autobot-Decepticon battle, Grimlock mediates on releasing his full power onto the ruthless Decepticons. But, alas, he cannot! For if he let go of any restraint, he would let loose the Beast! The causalities mount; despite losses on their side, the Decepticons are gaining victory! Optimus Prime is battered and surrounded by Megatron and his troops.

Truly, Grimlock has no choice; he must release the Beast within! With Grimlock calling out, "Dinobots! UNITE!", an inhuman amount of wires sprout out from everywhere. The end result is an awesome titan of power! Stricken with fear, Megatron orders the Decepticons to destroy the massive creature! [[Predaking]] forms! The opposing titans battle, but it is already lost for Predaking, for a slash of the Beast's sword takes care of the [[Predacon (G1)|Predacon]] combiner. The [[Seeker]]s and [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]] try to attack the Beast, but their attacks are pitiful! The Beast destroys them in one fell swoop! [[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] and [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]] are next, but the Beast simply tears them apart, and does the same for [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]], even though the [[Stunticon]] combiner pleads for his life.

With no [[Decepticon]]s left to destroy, the Beast turns to the [[Autobot]]s! Prime calls to Grimlock to regain mental control, but the Beast utters one thing... "K ...I ...L ...L".

===Part 2: Consequences===

With many Autobots having fallen to the Beast, a small group of survivors attempts to flee the scene huddled inside Optimus Prime's trailer. But Prime is not fast enough - the Beast rips his trailer open like a tin can with one swipe of his massive claw, and [[Skids]] is torn from within and meets his end in the creature's grip. With Prime running on rims, salvation arrives at the last minute in the form of Jetfire, who swoops in to pick up the Autobots and transport them to safety. Although Bumblebee urges Prime to climb aboard as well, he speeds ahead, to the rim of a crevasse, while Jetfire slows the Beast with a burst from his afterburners. The Beast emerges from the flames, and Prime calls out to his former troops, but with no response save a monstrous snarl, he opens fire. The Beast lunges at him and they grapple, until Prime shifts the monster's weight and causes both it and himself to topple into the chasm. At the last minute, Jetfire soars to the rescue again, plucking Prime out of mid-air as the Beast topples to the bottom of the pit and shatters into fragments. As Prime observes the smoking wreck, Jetfire inquires if it is over, to which Prime responds - "Is it ever really over?" All hope it is.

==Errors==
*This comic was produced.

==Items of note==
* Thankfully, this comic cannot take place in any previously-established continuity, due to the various characters being alive alongside other characters who were not around at certain times, the rampant gratuitous deaths, etc.

*[[Simon Furman]] is thanked for "help and support in the production of this comic." One can only wonder what "help" this was, but it's best not to contemplate what this comic might have been like without it.

* While Part 1 features artwork that is heavily Dreamwave-inspired, often looking like it is specfically attempting to ape [[Pat Lee]]'s style, Part 2 sees Gibson draw in a style he is more accustomed to. The Dreamwave influence is still felt, however, particularly when Prime draws his rifle from his "backpack" - a concept that comes directly from the original Dreamwave miniseries.

* Part 1 features digitally-applied lettering that is rarely aligned correctly and features virtually no periods or commas. Part 2 is lettered by hand.

[[Image:Butwhy.gif|right|400px|thumb|You happy now? Twenty years of whining, saying you want a dinobot combiner? THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!!!!!]]
The Beast is the combined form of the 5 Dinobots. Like them, his strength is awe inspiring, far beyond the other combiners. Unfortunately, he is also a mindless monster, whose single impulse is simply to kill, regardless of allegiance

=Fiction=
===The Beast Within===

With the autobots moments from death(some several moments passed death) Grimlock lays all his cards on the table and combines with his team mates into The Beast. After killing the decepticon combiners, and any decepticon foolish eough to attack him, he turned on the autobots, eventually forcing them to kill him

=Trivia=
*The Beast has only ever appeared in the once of two part comic included wih the Metrodome Season 2 P2 and Season 3 dvds.....thank god
*For years, fans have been coming up with designs for a dinobot combiner. This is such much worse then any of them

Grimlock (Animated)

2007-07-19T22:58:45Z

{{disambig3|Grimlock}}
:''Grimlock is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Transformers Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Grimlock''' is a ''Tyrannosaurus rex'', one of three [[Dinobots (Animated)|Dinobots]]. There's a good chance he will kick butt.

They will speak with "familiar grammar".

==Fiction==

===Transformers Animated cartoon===

According to Hasbro, he and the other Dinobots are three wild and crazy guys. This may be a sign they've turned dutch.

==Toy==

There will be one. Judging from the other toys it will likely kick Unicron-sized butt.
