The siege of Auto— Decepticon City rages on, as does the movie homages, albeit with new Shatteredverse flavor.
Synopsis
On Shatteredverse Earth, Decepticon City is under siege by the villainous Autobots! After Dirge notices Superion, Galvatron orders Predaking and his Predacons to destroy the Aerialbots. Expressing dislike for the tiny Predacons, Grimlock jumps out of the shuttle with them, landing atop the equally small Superion. Superion quickly uses his ability to disconnect and reconnect at will to gain the upper hand against the Dinobot, who is rescued by the Predacons in a timely fashion. On the outskirts of Decepticon City, the Annex touches down, and Galvatron instructs Cyclonus and Scourge to find Starscream and prepare for a counterattack while Galvatron transforms and declares that he will stop Optimus Prime, no matter the cost! Rodimus's troops open fire at the Decepticon leader, but are quickly called off by Rodimus who claims that this is a "Prime's fight". Optimus soon comes to face Galvatron himself, leading the two to engage in battle. Optimus soon gains a firm advantage over Galvatron. Rodimus quickly rushes in to restrain Galvatron, before being ordered away by Optimus, citing Rodimus's earlier statement that the fight is Prime's. Rodimus leaves, though not before he drops his blaster by Galvatron's side! As Optimus raises his sword to dispatch Galvatron, the Decepticon leader quickly draw Rodimus's gun, and levels it at the Autobot commander...

Transformers references
- This issue itself is the Shatteredverse spin on The Transformers: The Movie's battle for the Autobot City.
- One of the background Decepticons aboard the Annex appears to have a dump truck's flatbed as kibble. This might be Long Haul, drawn in the style of his Generation 1 counterpart's Combiner Wars toy.
- Shattered Glass Predaking, repurposed from Classics Nightscream, is a reference to Prime Predaking.
- Superion, meanwhile, is repurposed from Micromaster Sixwing, who was redecoed as a version of Superion in the 2003 Universe toyline.
- The fight between Optimus and Galvatron mirrors the one between Optimus and Megatron in the movie, although with slightly different weapons, and different dialogue.
