Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
While Landmine and Cloudburst were on Grand Central Space Station trying to buy microchips, Landmine nearly stepped on Berko, who was slouched drunk in an alley. Berko witnessed them making a deal with the disguised Nebulan brokers Hi-Test and Throttle, and told the Autobots that he hadn't seen his partner, Sky Lynx, since they tried making a deal with the selfsame brokers. Landmine expressed concern that a fellow Autobot might be in danger, but Cloudburst brushed it off.
Later, after the Autobots discovered that the brokers were agents for the Mecannibals, and rescued Sky Lynx from the same ugly red robovores, they dragged Berko into an alley, and informed him of these events. When Berko didn't believe them, they revealed that the two of them were really robots in disguise. Berko was vaguely grateful, but couldn't leave to meet up with Sky Lynx, as he owed money at the Black Hole Bar and Grill (which, unknown to the Autobots, was part of the whole kidnapping-robots-for-the-Mecannibals operation). The Autobots agreed to pay his bill.
Unfortunately, the Nebulans witnessed the Autobots' revelation of their robotic nature, and alerted the bartender J'oh at the bar. Dreadwing captured the Autobots when J'oh and others dumped them out the airlock. The Autobots and Berko ended up in the clutches of the Mecannibals. Guess Who the Mecannibals are Having for Dinner?
After Cloudburst talked their way out of being immediately devoured, Berko was held hostage by the Mecannibals while the Autobots were sent to fetch spices suitable for flavoring robotic meals. When the Autobots returned, they bargained for Berko's freedom, and he flew off with Sky Lynx. Recipe for Disaster!
