	Long after the Insecticon clan had dispersed, Dirge and Buzzclaw were recruited by [[Deathsaurus (G1)\|Deathsaurus]] to serve as the basis for a new army of Insecticon Virulent Clones. Deathsaurus established a research center on [[Ceti Alpha Seven]], where he unlocked the pair's long-dormant cloning abilities. When the Autobots discovered the facility and sent a team to destroy it, Dirge and Buzzclaw separately led armies of Virulent Clones against them. Although the Decepticons won that battle, the arrival of reinforcements ultimately led to an Autobot victory, with the cloning center destroyed and the clones' genetic matrices poisoned. {{storylink\|Descent into Evil}}		Long after the Insecticon clan had dispersed, Dirge and Buzzclaw were recruited by [[Deathsaurus (G1)\|Deathsaurus]] to serve as the basis for a new army of Insecticon Virulent Clones.

	Each clone isn't very smart, but they do follow orders well. As personality-less, easily-destroyable-yet-easily-replenishable drones, they make perfectly satisfactory cannon fodder.
