Saberhorn was a captive aboard the Alchemor when it crashed on Earth, although he wasn't on Fixit's prisoner manifest for reasons unknown. Freed during the impact, he took leadership of the civilization of Decepticons, alongside Scorponok and Glowstrike, and was sent out to obtain thermatanium. He was collecting some from a quarry near Crown City when he encountered Bumblebee, Strongarm, and Grimlock but was able to make off with a collection of ore. He took it to a steel mill to smelt it, and was again found by the Autobots. He seized Russell Clay as a hostage and almost succeeded in melting down Bumblebee, but was forced to flee after Grimlock grabbed him. He returned to the starship wreck where his bosses were unimpressed with his antics. Metal Meltdown
Saberhorn was in attendance after Steeljaw returned to the base with a group of recently freed Alchemor escapees for Glowstrike's consideration, reflecting fondly on Steeljaw's potential. Misdirection
When Steeljaw was talking to his troops about the chain of command, Saberhorn Glowstrike arrived to have a word with him. Steeljaw assumed that they were on to his betrayal and prepared to annihilate them, but he was shocked when they offered him a leadership position. As a display of his power and loyalty, Saberhorn and Glowstrike and Sreeljaw deal with a suspected terrorist amongst their ranks. Their conversation with Steeljaw ended when they walked into a weapons room and Glowstrike mentioned that there is a pod of deception hunters that they need help opening. Portals
Saberhorn and Glowstrike don't take lightly to being summoned by Steeljaw, but they were more than impressed when he opened the weapons container with the decepticon hunters. Saberhorn asked Steeljaw to hand them over, but instead, he turns his new-found weapons on Saberhorn and Glowstrike. In their confrontation with the Autobots, Saberhorn and Glowstrike bow to Steeljaw as he claims the Alchemor to be the first outpost of his new empire. Decepticon Island (Part 1)
Saberhorn accused Steeljaw of stealing the island after he was kindly accepted to be one of their own, but Steeljaw counters with a sarcastic statement. After their skirmish with the Autobots, resulting in Windblade's capture, Glowstrike held Bumblebee's dropped Decepticon Hunter against Steeljaw, but Steeljaw reacted quickly by shooting down both Saberhorn and Glowstrike.
