Oddly enough, when [[Emirate Xaaron]] and the [[Wrecker]]s planned [[Operation: Volcano]], '''Macabre''' did not appear to be on their list of intended targets - possibly because he's just a small-time thug who is awed by the likes of [[Octane]]. Sadly for him, Octane and the other Decepticons also treat Macabre with little more than contempt, so he is constantly looking to prove himself to them.<br />
<br />
This is why he really wants to kill Emirate Xaaron.<br />

Macabre was part of a Decepticon strikeforce that included the [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]]s, the [[Conehead]]s, [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] and the aforementioned Octane. Acting on information recovered by [[Shrapnel (G1)|Shrapnel]], they believed that they would have the chance of assassinating Xaaron, the leader of the [[Autobot]] resistance on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. In reality, the information had been deliberately leaked and they were unwittingly walking into a trap.<br />
<br />
When [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]] called off the attack, the Decepticons turned back for fear of disobeying the Slag Maker - all except Macabre, who was so driven by his desire to be remembered for something that he continued on the mission alone. He had the target in his sights when [[Impactor]] intervened, taking the shot meant for Xaaron.<br />
<br />
Frustrated at being cheated of his kill, Macabre jumped to his feet to take another shot, all the time ranting about how much he was going to kill Xaaron. Unfortunately for him, the assembled Wreckers blew him into spare parts, and that was the last anyone saw of Macabre. {{storylink|Target: 2006}}<br />

==Notes==<br />
* According to [[Dreadwind (G1)|Dreadwind]] in his [[Letters page (Marvel UK)|letters page]], Macabre transformed into a "bat-winged air current glider". No wonder he had an inferiority complex. <br />
