Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

Sammy, Jed, and Allan went to an empty train yard to play Space Wars. Jed had to take Robin along to babysit, which Sammy didn't appreciate as Robin wasn't interested in the others' pretend play and wanted to go home to play with Daisy. Just then, the sight of a police car driving by briefly forced them into hiding. Later, Jed spotted a motorcycle with no rider. The other kids thought he was playing another joke, so they followed him to prove he was right. During their walk, Robin complained that Daisy was tired.

Sammy discovered Blaster, who was mode locked and deposited in a pipe. The tape deck spoke, which freaked out Sammy and sent him to the other children. Robin calmly found the "pretty" radio and presented him to the other children, which allowed him to display his speaking abilities to all of them.

A nearby battle between Bruticus and Defensor finally came within visual range of the other children, scaring them; Robin wanted to go home. Blaster, having asked the children, had his mode lock removed by Allan, against the wishes of the other children. The four children were initially scared of the giant robot, and Robin asked Blaster not to hurt Daisy. Blaster assured the five that they had nothing to worry about.

To fool Bruticus, who had defeated Defensor, into believing that Blaster had no loyalty to the Autobots, Blaster and the children put on a show where Blaster "shot" Sammy. The distraction allowed Blaster to put Bruticus out of commission, and Blaster received permission from Defensor to escort the children to safety.

The children, seeing Blast Off inert, convinced Blaster to accompany them into space by mode locking Blast Off and using him to travel into outer space. Unfortunately, another spaceship, the Ark, was nearby and decidedly hostile to Blast Off. Child's Play

Blaster, realizing the danger he was putting the children in, was about to surrender to Grimlock, but Sammy selflessly tossed Blaster out of the space shuttle, away from the Autobots. The kids were taken into Wheeljack's custody and outfitted with spacesuits. The children were brought before Grimlock, who deemed them guilty of helping the traitorous Blaster and sentenced them to death. In reality, this was a ruse to draw out Blaster, who would be compelled to save the children. Just as they were sent drifting into space, they were suddenly swallowed by Sky Lynx, who was saving them on Wheeljack's behalf. Sky Lynx attempted to escape the pursuing Dinobots, but it took Blaster giving himself up to ensure the children's safety. Spacehikers!

The Spacehikers were allowed to be transported by Sky Lynx back to Earth, but when they received a broadcast advertising the Cosmic Carnival, the kids begged to go. Sky Lynx obliged. There, they were delighted by the spectacles, but Berko, working for Big Top, demanded payment for the group. When their supplies of various currencies came up short, Sky Lynx and the children were forced to become part of the circus, working towards some undefined debt.

Optimus Prime and his band of Autobots were attracted to the Cosmic Carnival by yet another advertisement, this time featuring Sky Lynx. The Autobots rescued the children by appealing to Berko's desire to return to Earth. Despite some interference from Big Top and his circus gang, the children and Sky Lynx were able to escape in the Steelhaven. The Cosmic Carnival

Sky Lynx returned the children to California but he didn't stick around due to a hostile crowd gathering. Monstercon from Mars!
