Fiction

Exodus

Blackout was from the Badlands and fought in the pits of Kaon. His body was riddled with scars. He accompanied Megatron to steal the Plasma Energy Chamber from Teletraan-1 and witnessed his battle with Sentinel Prime. When Sentinel Prime fell, exposing the Code Key of Justice within his chest, Starscream attempted to take the Key for himself but Blackout tried to stop him, taking a blow that would've killed any other Transformer but one that only managed to fell him.

After Megatron subdued Starscream, Megatron asked for Blackout's name and told him he had a great future. He asked him to take Sentinel's body back to Kaon. He was presumably successful for Optimus Prime later found Sentinel chained to a pillar in the Underworld, having suffered burns from Omega Supreme's takeoff and subjected to even more torture. Transformers: Exodus

Beast Hunters comic

After Megatron departed Cybertron, Blackout remained behind and fell in with the Forged. His settlement was destroyed when Cybertron was shaken by a planetwide catastrophe. No one but Blackout survived, and he was left badly damaged and trapped under rubble. He was stumbled upon by Slug, who at first taunted him and left him to die, but then had a change of heart, helping him to safety under the guise of "taking him in". Beast Hunters issue 5

Notes

  • Blackout's loyalty to Megatron and defiance of Starscream echoes Blackout from the first movie franchise.
