Computron (SG)
| This article is about the evil and moronic Autobot combiner. For his heroic and brilliant counterpart, see Computron (G1). |
- Computron is an evil Autobot combiner from the Shattered Glass continuity family.
Computron is the combined form of the evil Technobots, that once was a cruel genius formed by the union of the brilliant intellects of his components. He eventually further developed his own independent and egotistical mind free of the Technobots' individual shortcomings, causing the Technobots to become addicted to combining into him whenever possible.
Then one day Computron's ego drove him to try to imbue intelligence into the dimwitted Grimlock. The operation backfired and corrupted Computron's processors, causing him to become mentally deficient and the Technobots' neuroses to go from being suppressed to worse than when they are apart. However, Computron's ego remained unaffected, and he continues to both act as if he were still intelligent and compel the Technobots' addiction to forming him, often with disastrous results.
Optimus Prime enjoys the now dim-wittedly brutish Computron too much to give in to the Technobots' demands for repairs, and recently Alpha Trion has persuaded Computron to join his side so he can also take advantage of the combiner's destructive power.
Computron is comprised of:
- Scattorshot (leader)
- Afterburner
- Lightspeed
- Nosecone
- Strafe
Fiction
Shattered Glass
When Alpha Trion returned from his exile to his laboratory, the Technobots were among the ones who came to rejoin his service and help detain Breakaway, Landquake, and Topspin. Reunification: Part 1
When the three managed to escape, Computron eventually was sent out to find and deal with the three escapees. The three's most recent visitor Aquarius was able to delay Computron's arrival with a "slow time" bubble, but eventually the bubble faded and Computron tore the roof off the building.

Trivia
- The colour scheme of Shattered Glass Computron is clearly based on his G1 counterpart's nemesis, Abominus.
