	After arriving on Earth, Heatwave tracked Soundwave's stasis pod to a [[Wyatt's Roadsideaganza\|human tourist attraction]], where he had to dispatch some dangerous "lifeforms" and rescue Soundwave from being one of the attractions.

	*~~As mentioned first-thing in the fiction section,~~ Heatwave made his first appearance in the "[[Shattered Glass (issue)\|Shattered Glass]]" comic book story. Unnamed, he appeared only in a big crowd scene of Decepticons, just over Megatron's shoulder. His color details were a little different, since those likely hadn't been decided on so early, and it's not known if artist [[Don Figueroa]] was instructed to put him into the panel or if this was his own initiative. Regardless, fans were able to guess the unnamed character's importance by his color scheme and mold choice.		*Heatwave made his first appearance in the [[2008]] "[[Shattered Glass (issue)\|Shattered Glass]]" comic book story.

	:Heatwave has a minor [[design flaw]] in that the new combiner head is slightly too tall for the space it is supposed to occupy in Heatwave's robot mode. Due to this, the back chunk no longer pegs securely in place.

	While the humans and other Decepticons infiltrated the main part of the base, Heatwave made his way to the satellite transmitter on the base's roof. Once there, he convinced the transmitter to tell the base computer to reopen the base and evacuate everyone, ripping the transmitter from the roof to get clear himself. He then had the controller turn one of the GODSes on the base to destroy it. Finally, he reluctantly used his hands to crush the controller itself—mournfully lamenting that it was a "brave transmitter that knew what had to be done"—which caused the primary GODS to self-destruct. {{storylink\|Eye in the Sky}}		While the humans and other Decepticons infiltrated the main part of the base, Heatwave made his way to the satellite transmitter on the base's roof.

	When [[Blitzwing (SG)\|Blitzwing]] and Will came across the Autobots building a device in the desert, they hid and called for reinforcements. Heatwave arrived first and recognized the device as a [[stellar spanner]], explaining it was for long-range transportation without a [[starship]]. He didn't think [[Wheeljack (SG)\|Wheeljack]] could get it working, as the "[[Alpha Trion/Shattered Glass\|Old One]]" was the only being to ever build one, and rumor was that [[Optimus Prime (SG)\|Optimus Prime]] had killed him before he finished it. Blitzwing wasn't reassured, so Heatwave offered to go "talk" to it. Blitzwing warned him to wait for the other Decepticons, but Heatwave was too excited at using his ability on a brand-new device to listen.

	Despite Heatwave being large, heavy, and brightly-colored, the Autobots were distracted enough for him to sneak partway over, until he tripped on a crumbling rock. The Autobots, happy at the arrival of a "volunteer test subject", converged on him. He transformed and blasted [[Side Burn (SG)\|Side Burn]] nearly in half with a missile volley, but Wheeljack and [[Goldbug (SG)\|Goldbug]] trapped his turret between them, immobilizing him. They then forcibly transformed him back to robot mode, tied his hands together, and dragged him into the spanner. He struggled the whole way, sending Wheeljack flying with a boot to the head, but Goldbug shoved him in regardless.

	When [[Blitzwing (SG)\|Blitzwing]] and Will came across the Autobots building a device in the desert, they hid and called for reinforcements. Heatwave arrived first and recognized the device as a [[stellar spanner]], explaining it was for long-range transportation without a [[starship]]. He didn't think [[Wheeljack (SG)\|Wheeljack]] could get it working, as the "[[Alpha Trion/Shattered Glass\|Old One]]" was the only being to ever build one, and rumor was that [[Optimus Prime (SG)\|Optimus Prime]] had killed him before he finished it. Blitzwing wasn't reassured, so Heatwave offered to go "talk" to it. Blitzwing warned him to wait for the other Decepticons, but Heatwave was too excited at using his ability on a brand-new device to listen.

	Despite Heatwave being large, heavy, and brightly-colored, the Autobots were distracted enough for him to sneak partway over, until he tripped on a crumbling rock. The Autobots, happy at the arrival of a "volunteer test subject", converged on him. He transformed and blasted [[Side Burn (SG)\|Side Burn]] nearly in half with a missile volley, but Wheeljack and [[Goldbug (SG)\|Goldbug]] trapped his turret between them, immobilizing him. They then forcibly transformed him back to robot mode, tied his hands together, and dragged him into the spanner. He struggled the whole way, sending Wheeljack flying with a boot to the head, but Goldbug shoved him in regardless.

Once there, he convinced the transmitter to tell the base computer to reopen the base and evacuate everyone, ripping the transmitter from the roof to get clear himself. He then had the controller turn one of the GODSes on the base to destroy it.

	:Heatwave is a [[retool]] of [[Transformers: Energon (toyline)\|''Energon'']] [[Barricade (Energon)#Energon\|Barricade]] with a new [[combiner]] robot head. Heatwave transforms into a "Stompbox Mobile Missile Deployer" with a rear-mounted (non-firing) missile rack that turns and elevates. He also forms the torso to [[Nexus Prime\|Nexus Maximus]] along with [[Skyfall (Cybertron)\|Skyfall]], [[Landquake (Timelines)\|Landquake]], [[Breakaway (Classics)\|Breakaway]], and [[Topspin (Classics)\|Topspin]]. He is also capable of combining with any "[[Powerlinx]] Combiner" limb-robot combination thanks to the universal connector points used for the [[Air Team]], [[Destruction Team]] and [[Construction Team]] toys.		:Heatwave is a [[retool]] of [[Transformers: Energon (toyline)\|''Energon'']] [[Barricade (Energon)#Energon\|Barricade]] with a new [[combiner]] robot head.
