Out-fanwank this, Jim Sorenson. We dare you.

For a time, Squadron X was the Decepticons' answer to the Wreckers. While the Wreckers used their unique sense of bravado and brutality to right wrongs, Squadron X left a wake of indiscriminate corpses. As such, the Wreckers' leader, Impactor, was obsessed with tracking them down and ending them.

Their roster included:

• Macabre (probable leader)
• Tornado
• Fang
• Earthquake
• Triton
• Ferak
• Crosscut

Fiction

IDW Generation 1 continuity

The final showdown between Squadron X and the Wreckers occurred on Pova. Both sides were evenly matched, in both the skies and the trenches, until Springer was trapped under rubble. As Macabre, Tornado, and Earthquake advanced, Impactor surprised Squadron X by firing through Springer's torso at them. This desperate gambit worked, the tide was turned, and Squadron X was rounded up for transport.

Unfortunately, Squadron X broke free of their inhibitor harnesses. Impactor, realizing that their rivalry with Squadron X could never end with them containment, ordered the Wreckers to take them out permanently. Squadron X ceased to be, subsequently.

However, something yet-revealed occurred that day which caused Impactor to eventually end up imprisoned on Garrus-9. Last Stand of the Wreckers issue 4

Notes

• This is the fanwankiest subgroup that there ever was or ever will be.
• Go on. Prove us wrong. We'd like to see you try.
