The Autobots and Avengers are acquainted. Doctor Doom disapproves of Decepticons.

Synopsis

[edit]

Fueled by the aggression wave, the Avengers assault the Autobots, who have arrived at the Array to prevent any loss of life. Ms. Marvel battles valiantly against Ratchet's roomy interior, while Bumblebee uses his holographic abilities to take down Luke Cage. Wolverine manages to shake off the effect of being run over, but an electrical pulse from the armored hand of Doctor Doom takes the dirty mutant down.

Ratchet places an inhibitor device on Captain America to undo the effects of the aggression wave. Assistance from Doctor Doom is required in order to stop the ferocious Ms. Marvel. The Autobots quickly explain that they've come to Earth to stop the Decepticons from using the large dome device to devastate the planet. Doom explains his own role in the affair: The aggression wave was produced using the Psycho-Prism stolen from one of Doom's laboratories. Iron Man remotely confirms that the inhibitor technology is safe for Earthling use.

Inside the dome, the Decepticons (except Ramjet) all receive a power boost. Megatron explains to his captive webslinger that the enhancements are possible thanks to data taken from Spider-Man's superhuman biology. The procedure is called mirror response mode.

The Autobots and Avengers attempt to break through the energy shields around the dome, while Doctor Doom leaves to go to Symkaria, to explain that it is not his military that's bombing that country. The Decepticons spring from the Array, and surprise the Autobots with their new power. Luckily, help comes in the form of Iron Man, in a new Transformer-scaled suit of armor.

Errors

  • Ramjet is not drawn as a Conehead, but as a normal Seeker.
  • Jazz's function is given as "communications". It is actually "special operations".
  • The indicia in this issue forgets that this series was a co-production with IDW/Hasbro, and uses the standard Marvel indicia, including a claim that "All characters featured in this issue and the distinctive names and likenesses thereof, and all related incidia are trademarks of Marvel Characters, Inc."
  • In issue 1, it was revealed that Symkaria gave a 24-hour deadline for Latveria to stop the bombing before they counter-attack.

Other trivia

[edit]
Thundercranker
  • In some preview art released before this issue hit stores, a robot clearly modeled after the 2007 live-action movie toyline Crankcase was featured in a group shot with the other Decepticons. For the published issue, this robot was replaced with Thundercracker. It's unknown if this was a simple art reference mistake or a lingering indication of a plotline that was changed in the final product. It was widely speculated at the time that this new character would have possibly filled the role Ramjet had in this series, but was replaced in favor of an existing G1 Decepticon.
