Fiction
IDW Shattered Glass comic
When the war for Cybertron broke out, Slipstream was part of a pirate gang lead by Captain Cannonball, and eventually they joined Megatron's Decepticon movement fighting for freedom. However, all including Slipstream were left to despair when Cannonball died to protect them from Rodimus.
In the present day, the crew was drinking away their sorrows at the bar when a resurgent Megatron approached them with a new mission: stop the Autobots from imminently reactivating Metroplex. Though Megatron initially believed Slipstream to be Cannonball's successor, he was soon corrected that Flamewar spearheaded the crew's passion for justice. Shattered Glass II #4

Notes
- Slipstream and her relationship with Flamewar are largely inspired by their counterparts from the then-recent 2019-2022 comic continuity by IDW Publishing, where Slipstream was also the mature senior to the hothead Flamewar in Team Stream of The Rise. Accordingly, Shattered Glass Slipstream shares a body design with IDW Slipstream, who was given an original interpretation of Cyberverse Slipstream's design by Anna Malkova, distinct from the Siege Voyager Class Starscream design used for Slipstream's jet comrades.
