Shūta and Cab are taken prisoner within Overlord's base mode and the Autobots attempt to rescue them.

Synopsis

[edit]

Shūta and Cab are captured and tortured by Blood within Overlord Base, so Ginrai and Minerva head there to save them. Meanwhile, Lightfoot, Ranger, Road King and Grand are coming to Earth to join Ginrai and Minerva, but they are intercepted by BlackZarak and Darkwings.

Mega tells Blood to stop whipping Shūta and Cab and asks the boys if they have decided to join the Decepticons. Wilder says it is impossible to allow Shūta and Cab to join them, but Giga tells Wilder not to think like that because they're always willing to welcome people who want to join the Masterforce Family. Shūta replies that they are out of their minds and that the Decepticon "family" is a "stupid family" (zing!). Likewise, Cab refuses to join the Decepticons. Wilder rebukes this, saying that Shūta and Cab probably don't have parents like Giga and Mega.

Later, Ginrai and Minerva arrive in time. Minerva drives Godbomber and crashes into the base to save Shūta and Cab. Mega tells the boys to wait, while Giga tells her it's time to "god on" to their transtectors and form Overlord. Unfortunately, Mega reminds him that the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors are still inside Overlord.

Super Ginrai and Godbomber are hit by the "Transtector Destructing Cannon" used by Overlord in battle. But Grand arrives with Battleship Maximus and the other Autobot Godmasters who have defeated BlackZarak and Darkwings.

Super Ginrai immediately combines with Godbomber to form God Ginrai and rides Battleship Maximus to attack Overlord via some gnarly surfing skill. Then he finishes Overlord with Grand's Master Blade.

The injured Decepticons then proceed to retreat. Giga asks Mega if she is alright and tells her not to mind what happened today. Regardless, Mega cries.

That night, while the Autobots chat happily in City Maximus, Cab says Minerva could be the mother of Autobots, while Shūta says Ginrai could be the father. Minerva blushes with embarrassment.

Notes

[edit]
  • Just how Shūta and Cab were captured by the Decepticons isn't elaborated upon.
  • Minerva drives Godbomber and crashes into Overlord to save Shūta and Cab. Yeah, she is tough.
  • Overlord's gun is identified as the "Transtector Destructing Cannon" in this issue.
  • Grand Maximus's sword is identified as the Master Blade in this issue.
  • Lightfoot, Ranger, and Road King are seen without helmets for the first time in the Super-God Masterforce comic.
  • This issue is the only Super-God Masterforce fiction featuring Grand Maximus's city mode.

Errors

[edit]
  • Minerva's Master Suit is white instead of red when she saves Shūta and Cab.
