Grand Scourge lures Optimus Prime into battle with his own team of drones to counter the Prime Force!
Synopsis
Drawing a small squad of Autobots to the middle of the desert by defeating a unit of Battle Ravages, the mysterious Grand Scourge attacks the Autobots, using his own version of the Prime Force. Scourge manages to dislodge Optimus's "Digger-3" drill-tank unit from its place on his leg, toppling Optimus. Scourge then detaches his equivalent of "Flame-3" from his own right arm, replacing it with Optimus's Digger-3, and attacks him with a diving double-drill press!
However, the attack is interrupted by Hot Shot, Ironhide and Kicker. Optimus rallies, and knocks Digger-3 from its place on Scourge's arm. Outnumbered, Scourge vanishes into a warp with some cryptic words.
Unbeknownst to the Autobots, the fight was witnessed by Megatron, who comments on the interesting turn of events to himself.

Notes
Errors
- At the beginning of the comic, it is mentioned that Divebombs as well as Battle Ravages had been spotted in the area, but only the Battle Ravages are ever shown.
Other notes
- Any relationship between Grand Scourge and Nemesis Prime (who was called just plain "Scourge" in Japan) is never mentioned in this comic. Grand Scourge's bio packaged with the comic provides no clues, simply saying that he is powerful, mysterious and looks just like Optimus.
