Fiction

Generations Selects Special Comic

Doublecrosser is here only to increase the rebellion's headcount.

Doublecrosser was one type of Selector, a race of Transformers created by humans with the power of Angolmois Energy to serve mankind. In particular, Doublecrossers were used as walls and ceilings. However, the Selectors didn't care for their position in life and sought to rebel against humanity with the help of Megatron's Decepticons. Volcanicus comic 1 With their assistance, the Selectors, including Doublecrossers, began their rebellion in Neo Scramble City. Volcanicus comic 2 One Doublecrosser stood by Selector leader Rung as he denounced Optimus Prime's treatment of the Dinobots, and later watched as the new combiner Volcaticon announced his intent to find a solution that would benefit both humans and Selectors, moments before the Quintessons and their Terrorcon servants invaded. Volcanicus comic 4

As the Terrorcons attacked Autobots, Decepticons, and Selectors alike, multiple Doublecrossers combined themselves into a barrier to protect Inferno and Red Alert from Rippersnapper's Anglomois Ball attack. In response, Cutthroat simply picked them up and dropped them into a nest of ravenous Pteraxadons. Abominus comic 1
