A presumably alternate-universe incarnation of Smokescreen is shown in a death-duel with a presumably alternate-universe incarnation of Generation 1 Smokescreen within the Cauldron arena. Both robots' minds corrupted by Unicron crane-Smokescreen killed car-Smokescreen, gaining in power, while Unicron fed off the defeated robot's released spark.
It is possible that this Smokescreen would have turned out to be Universe Smokescreen had the comic series continued.
