Collect and Save by Tim Waggoner

While scouring the galaxy for recyclables, Assessor detected a large junk deposit. That deposit, however, turned out to be the fabled Planet of Junk. Salvage landed the Reclamation on the planet's surface, where Torch combined with his comrades into the Prime Processing Unit. Before they could begin converting the junk to energy, however, an army of Junkions commanded by Wreck-Gar erupted from the ground. In the brief skirmish that followed, Torch's flamethrower was destroyed by a Junkion mace, and the resulting plasma buildup blew off his arm. Despite his injury, he managed to carry Convertor's components back to the ship.

Back aboard the Reclamation, Torch was repaired, and once more combined with his comrades into the Prime Processing Unit. But before they could begin processing Junkion, a tractor beam dragged the Reclamation into the planet's surface, reducing the ship - and Torch - to junk.
