Synopsis
Having defeated the Decepticon leadership on Cybertron, Megatron has set himself up as leader once again. He is soon haunted by the spectre of Lord Straxus, the Decepticon warlord who attempted, unsuccessfully, to take over his mind.
Concerned that Straxus is once again taking control of his consciousness, Megatron is relieved when a mysterious intruder makes his way into the Decepticon base. Ravage, who has been concerned that Megatron was descending into madness again is equally relieved that he has a chance for action. He attacks the intruder and is shocked to discover that it is another Megatron.

Notes
- The cover of this issue was later reused for the 1993 Winter Special, despite the story not being reprinted there and the image having very little to do with the stories that were ("Decepticon Dam-Busters!" and "The Big Shutdown!").
Covers (2)
-
Issue #243 - Who knows what evil lies in the heart of Megatron? -
Titan TPB - I don't like it when mummy and daddy fight!
- Issue #243 cover: Megatron is stalked by...Megatron, by Andrew Wildman.
- Fallen Star TPB cover: Megatron and Shockwave wrestle at Memphis airport, by Stewart Johnson.
Generics
Some generics are an integral part of the plot; most are redshirt guards.
-
One generic Decepticon rebuilds another into a clone of Megatron that would house Straxus's mind, but believe itself to be Megatron...or something like that, it's complicated. -
Megatron takes down an unsuspecting guard with a karate chop. Uh, right. -
Three guards react to the alarm. -
Megatron beats up on yet more generic Decepticon guards.
Reprints
