Run by executive producer Fever Dream, the ICS was the lead news network (and not incidentally propaganda network) on Builder-controlled Cybertron. When the Vehicon Apocalypse threatened to destroy all life on the planet, Rook and producer Aston tried to get the word out from their headquarters at the Verity Tower. Unfortunately, Fever Dream stubbornly clung to the official party line, that the Vehicons were here to help.

Notes
- The Transformers vol. 2 #40 mistakenly gives the name as "Iaconian News Service", possibly due to confusion with the pre-war precursor.
- ICS characters considered for inclusion in "Derailment" included individuals named "Infodump", "Hot Take", "Vlog", "Forecast", and "Sidebar".[1]
