Renegade Rhetoric

During his exile in Axiom Nexus, Cy-Kill came across the abandoned base of Alpha Trion where his servant Topspin had replaced the sparks of several key TransTechs with their lowtech counterparts. The original sparks were kept in cold storage at the base, and found by Cy-Kill and his Renegades. Along with technology stolen from Shockwave, Cy-Kill brought the sparks back to his home reality.

Cy-Kill discovered the means of using these "positronic energy matrices", as he called them, to bring life to his old Puzzler drones by encasing them in a laser containment field and animated by Space Lightning drawn down by the Rogue Star and its Stellar Fulminator Rod. What's more, each new Renegade had access to Mighty Skills as a result of their unique origins. Crossword, who came from the spark of Brawn, demonstrated Super Strength.

The Renegades schemed to ambush and destroy the Power Warrior Courageous with their new combiner advantage. Monsterous was openly deployed to rampage through Philadelphia, with the hope of drawing out the Guardians and then having Puzzler attack from the opposite side, flanking Courageous when it arrived. Unfortunately, the Guardians realized Cy-Kill's plan after he liberated the wreckage of Puzzler from Gobotron. They kept Rube from reaching Courageous, leaving Cy-Kill with only Monsterous and a one-legged Puzzler. The Renegades retreated in embarrassment. Six Heads are Better than One

Ask Vector Prime

In one reality, Crossword and the Puzzler components were permanently fused into their gestalt form by Bio Ranger Iga. Their individuality was lost, but a grateful Puzzler joined Iga as his Cybernetic Subjugation General in the Thirteen Great Demon Generals. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/07/15

Echoes and Fragments

As Sideways and Gong played havoc with the walls of reality, the Renegades launched an all-out assault on Autobot City on Earth. Crossword took a few shots at the city's defenses during the battle.

Later, after the combined Renegade and Decepticon forces fled Earth onboard Astrotrain, Zero disposed of Megatron and declared himself the new leader. The Puzzler troopers objected, and attempted to claim command with their Mighty Robot gestalt. Zero was nevertheless successful in the end, and the Puzzlers blew trumpets at his coronation later that night. Echoes and Fragments

Go-Bots comic

Crossword joined up with Cy-Kill's band of Renegade Go-Bots when they were a band of desert outlaws, raiding along Route 66. When the movement turned into a full uprising, Pocket and Crossword were given the task of destroying the military Go-Bot Leader-1 at a junkyard, with Crossword taking no small pleasure in cramming him into a car crusher while Pocket operated the machinery. However, Leader-1 revived and was able to fly out. He threw Pocket and Crossword into the crusher and used it on them, deaf to their pathetic pleas for mercy. Go-Bots #2
