	Shockwave had been put in charge of a remote Decepticon base in the middle of the [[Rust Sea\|Sea of Rust]], where he was to oversee a reportedly unlimited source of [[Energon]], a potentially amazing advantage in the waning days of the war for Cybertron. [[Swoop (WFC)\|Swoop]] had been dispatched to investigate this mysterious Energon-rich Decepticon base when he overheard a conversation between Shockwave and [[Starscream (WFC)\|Starscream]]. Starscream was concerned that Shockwave's attentions were diverted away from the Energon discovery and was wasting his talents on examining the [[Insecticon (WFC)\|Insecticon]]s he'd discovered and the "cosmic secrets" he had learned. Shockwave's Insecticon horde discovered Swoop's presence, and the Autobot was captured. {{storylink\|Secrets (FOC)\|Secrets}}		Shockwave had been put in charge of a remote Decepticon base in the middle of the [[Rust Sea\|Sea of Rust]], where he was to oversee a reportedly unlimited source of [[Energon]], a potentially amazing advantage in the waning days of the war for Cybertron.

	Predictably, the other members of Swoop's Autobot team, the [[Lightning Strike Coalition Force]] arrived in hopes of retrieving Swoop. Shockwave confronted the four and boasted that this action on their part was central to his plans. The Lightning Strike Coalition Force would make "perfect test subjects" for his experiments, {{storylink\|Siege Mentality}} and as their leader, [[Grimlock (WFC)\|Grimlock]], fought back, Shockwave thanked him for not alerting [[Optimus Prime (WFC)\|Optimus Prime]] of their whereabouts.

He then quickly fell Grimlock with surgeon-like precision, all the while gloating that the Coalition's absence from the front lines would allow the Decepticons to easily take Autobot City from Optimus Prime's control. {{storylink\|Last Stand}}		Predictably, the other members of Swoop's Autobot team, the [[Lightning Strike Coalition Force]] arrived in hopes of retrieving Swoop.

	Shockwave was waiting when Grimlock awoke, strung up in his laboratory. He explained that he had discovered ancient Transformers technology, a [[space bridge\|bridge that could traverse both space and time]]. This "space bridge" had offered him a glimpse of many worlds, but most relevantly Shockwave had seen into the past of a certain [[Earth\|small blue planet]] where [[dinosaur (dinosaur)\|amazing and terrible creatures]] once stalked its lands. {{storylink\|Fragmentation (FOC)\|Fragmentation}} {{storylink\|Beast Hunters issue 3\|Beast Hunters #3}} Having already experimented in recreating dinosaurs organically in the past, Shockwave went to work reconstructing the Dinobots in their image. {{storylink\|Beast Hunters issue 4\|Beast Hunters #4}} As Shockwave's machinery took Grimlock apart, he told the Autobot that he and his team would be rebuilt into weapons for the Decepticons. {{storylink\|Fragmentation (FOC)\|Fragmentation}} As Grimlock was being reformed, through his pain he saw visions of the future, of being unwittingly unleashed by Starscream and ultimately taking his revenge on Shockwave.

	After [[Megatron (WFC)\|Megatron]] was killed during siege on Iacon, [[Starscream (WFC)\|Starscream]] took command of the Decepticons. The two argued over the use of a lake of Energon near the Space Bridge tower, and though Shockwave attempted to convince him of its potential usefulness, Starscream simply wanted to drain the lake. When [[Cliffjumper (WFC)\|Cliffjumper]] and [[Jazz (WFC)\|Jazz]] disrupted the fuel line leading to the tower, Shockwave unleashed an army of Insecticons upon them while he attempted to rectify the problem. He failed to do so, but luckily he had already built a replica tower in Kaon. Following [[Soundwave (WFC)\|Soundwave]]'s resurrection of Megatron, Shockwave went to Kaon meet him and informed him of his discovery of the Space Bridge and the planet they could plunder. Megatron subsequently went to retrieve [[Trypticon (WFC)\|Trypticon]]'s power core so that they could power a craft to get them there, while Shockwave went to finalize the completion of the tower.

	Later, Starscream infiltrated Shockwave's facility and watched as Shockwave and his Insecticons tortured [[Grimlock (WFC)\|one of the Autobots]] he had experimented on, before he attempted to recruit Grimlock, which failed and resulted in the Autobot being freed. Shockwave decided to consider the breakout a test of Grimlock's new abilities, and monitored him closely as he fought his Insecticon minions, and proceeded to tear apart every one of them. Much later, Grimlock had attempted to attack Shockwave at the Space Bridge, but he was quickly restrained. Shockwave taunted Grimlock saying that he wouldn't create such a powerful weapon without a means to control it, calling him a pet, and contacted Megatron to let him know the tower was active and the portal was open. After Megatron assigned Shockwave to take charge of the Decepticons in his absence, Grimlock was enraged enough for him to transform into his Tyrannosaurus mode and attack Shockwave, tearing his left arm off and ''swallowing it'' before knocking him away with his tail. {{storylink\|Transformers: Fall of Cybertron}}		Later, Starscream infiltrated Shockwave's facility and watched as Shockwave and his Insecticons tortured [[Grimlock (WFC)\|one of the Autobots]] he had experimented on, before he attempted to recruit Grimlock, which failed and resulted in the Autobot being freed.

	Shockwave had been put in charge of a remote Decepticon base in the middle of the [[Rust Sea\|Sea of Rust]], where he was to oversee a reportedly unlimited source of [[Energon]], a potentially amazing advantage in the waning days of the war for Cybertron. [[Swoop (WFC)\|Swoop]] had been dispatched to investigate this mysterious Energon-rich Decepticon base when he overheard a conversation between Shockwave and [[Starscream (WFC)\|Starscream]]. Starscream was concerned that Shockwave's attentions were diverted away from the Energon discovery and was wasting his talents on examining the [[Insecticon (WFC)\|Insecticon]]s he'd discovered and the "cosmic secrets" he had learned. Shockwave's Insecticon horde discovered Swoop's presence, and the Autobot was captured. {{storylink\|Secrets (FOC)\|Secrets}}		Shockwave had been put in charge of a remote Decepticon base in the middle of the [[Rust Sea\|Sea of Rust]], where he was to oversee a reportedly unlimited source of [[Energon]], a potentially amazing advantage in the waning days of the war for Cybertron.

	Predictably, the other members of Swoop's Autobot team, the [[Lightning Strike Coalition Force]] arrived in hopes of retrieving Swoop. Shockwave confronted the four and boasted that this action on their part was central to his plans. The Lightning Strike Coalition Force would make "perfect test subjects" for his experiments, {{storylink\|Siege Mentality}} and as their leader, [[Grimlock (WFC)\|Grimlock]], fought back, Shockwave thanked him for not alerting [[Optimus Prime (WFC)\|Optimus Prime]] of their whereabouts.

	After [[Megatron (WFC)\|Megatron]] was killed during siege on Iacon, [[Starscream (WFC)\|Starscream]] took command of the Decepticons. The two argued over the use of a lake of Energon near the Space Bridge tower, and though Shockwave attempted to convince him of its potential usefulness, Starscream simply wanted to drain the lake. When [[Cliffjumper (WFC)\|Cliffjumper]] and [[Jazz (WFC)\|Jazz]] disrupted the fuel line leading to the tower, Shockwave unleashed an army of Insecticons upon them while he attempted to rectify the problem. He failed to do so, but luckily he had already built a replica tower in Kaon. Following [[Soundwave (WFC)\|Soundwave]]'s resurrection of Megatron, Shockwave went to Kaon meet him and informed him of his discovery of the Space Bridge and the planet they could plunder. Megatron subsequently went to retrieve [[Trypticon (WFC)\|Trypticon]]'s power core so that they could power a craft to get them there, while Shockwave went to finalize the completion of the tower.

	Later, Starscream infiltrated Shockwave's facility and watched as Shockwave and his Insecticons tortured [[Grimlock (WFC)\|one of the Autobots]] he had experimented on, before he attempted to recruit Grimlock, which failed and resulted in the Autobot being freed. Shockwave decided to consider the breakout a test of Grimlock's new abilities, and monitored him closely as he fought his Insecticon minions, and proceeded to tear apart every one of them. Much later, Grimlock had attempted to attack Shockwave at the Space Bridge, but he was quickly restrained. Shockwave taunted Grimlock saying that he wouldn't create such a powerful weapon without a means to control it, calling him a pet, and contacted Megatron to let him know the tower was active and the portal was open. After Megatron assigned Shockwave to take charge of the Decepticons in his absence, Grimlock was enraged enough for him to transform into his Tyrannosaurus mode and attack Shockwave, tearing his left arm off and ''swallowing it'' before knocking him away with his tail. {{storylink\|Transformers: Fall of Cybertron}}		Later, Starscream infiltrated Shockwave's facility and watched as Shockwave and his Insecticons tortured [[Grimlock (WFC)\|one of the Autobots]] he had experimented on, before he attempted to recruit Grimlock, which failed and resulted in the Autobot being freed.

	When Cybertron was beginning to shut down, Shockwave wanted to reboot it, but to do this, he needed an large energon supply. As he searched for one, he discovered an ancient technology in the [[Rust Sea\|Sea of Rust]] called Space ~~Bridges~~. Using the observatories of the ancients that used to reside in the Sea of Rust, Shockwave began searching for new planets that he could suck the life out of, and found [[Earth\|one]] rich in raw energy. He also began experimenting on several [[Insecticon (WFC)\|Insecticons]] which had started coming onto the planet's surface, and took three unusually intelligent Insecticons, [[Hardshell]], [[Kickback (FOC)\|Kickback]] and [[Sharpshot]], under his command. He later used them to capture [[Dinobot (FOC)\|five Autobots]], whom he gave new forms based on the [[Dinosaur (dinosaur)\|large reptiles]] he saw on the planet.
