Deacon
- Deacon is a human from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Deacon was a General in the United States Army until he was replaced by a Decepticon facsimile construct.
Fiction
IDW comics continuity
While snooping around the Decepticons' abandoned base in Oregon, Verity Carlo discovered Deacon's body in a facsimile "seed pod". Infiltration #4
Deacon's facsimile later met with Senator Holt, reassuring the Senator that instability in the Gulf region is a good thing... for the Senator. Runabout was nearby and secretly tagged the Senator as a "primary target". Escalation #2
Deacon's facsimile later attended an emergency session of the National Security Council regarding sightings of a UFO crashing into the Gulf of Mexico. He was pulled out of the meeting by a phone call from Senator Holt. Deacon's facsimile agreed with Senator Holt that Alpha-Scenario should proceed as planned. Devastation #3
Notes
- Since the events of Devastation, the continuity has been taken in new directions, so we are not likely to learn more about the mysterious Alpha-Scenario.
- In the initial appearance of Deacon's corpse, it was wearing a Navy Uniform. In a later flashback, it was wearing an Army uniform, presumably so it matched the General who was conspiring with Senator Holt.
