| This article is about the IDW series. For the Dreamwave comic issue, see Devastation. |
The Transformers: Devastation is a 6-issue comic-book mini-series published by IDW Publishing in 2007/2008, and set in the main IDW continuity. It directly follows The Transformers: Escalation, and ramps up the action even further for the Generation 1 Transformers. As the Autobots discover that the humans are aware of the location of their base, Megatron summons Sixshot to Earth to hasten its... well, devastation!
It is issues #17–22 in the IDW overarching "sub-numbering" (shown by a number in an Autobot-sigil shaped shield beside the bar code on each issue), and was originally published between October, 2007 and February, 2008.

Overview
Megatron unleashes his "living weapon", Sixshot, on the Autobots. After shooting down the Autobots' craft, this unstoppable killing machine hunts down Ratchet and the Autobots' human allies. Meanwhile, the Decepticons have problems of their own: the Reapers have arrived on Earth, intending to scour it clean of all life—starting with the Decepticons. But the denizens of the Dead Universe have plans for Earth too, and refuse to give it to another unworthy species.
Creative team
The creative team from Infiltration and Escalation (writer Simon Furman and penciller E. J. Su) reunited for the bulk of Devastation. However Su's paternity leave meant he was unable to pencil the entire arc. Nick Roche took over for issue 3, with Robby Musso working on issue 4. Su returned for issues 5 and 6.
