Fiction
Renegade Rhetoric
South Claw was the member of a gang of Predacons operating in the lawless Heap in the Axiom Nexus Offworlder Zone. They chanced upon Cy-Kill and Warpath and engaged the pair. South Claw attacked Cy-Kill with his freeze ray, but was bested when Cy-Kill found his weak spot. His allies were similarly defeated, and Warpath advocated destroying them. Cy-Kill had another idea. He challenged the gang leader, Fright Face, to single combat, with the winner to pledge allegiance to the loser. Cy-Kill prevailed, and Fright Face honored the terms of the deal.
The gang embraced the Renegade philosophy, so much so that Cy-Kill gave them the Puzzler upgrade to allow them to combine to form Monsterous.Renegade Rhetoric
Notes
- South Claw, like all of Cy-Kill's Axiom Nexus recruits, never made an appearance in the Challenge of the GoBots cartoon.
- South Claw and his fellow Predacons recruits were all sold together as the Monstrous gift-pack.
- The individual Monstrous components were among the few GoBots to have on-package bios, which Ask Vector Prime nods to in their characterization.
