Megatron recognized two things about Shockwave: that he was bereft of any morality or ethics, and that while he was his most loyal ally, he would turn on him one day.ĭuring the Autobot- Decepticon war, Shockwave perfected his experiments with the Constructicons, creating a Devastator which was unleashed on Crystal City. He continued his combination experiments with the three Insecticons, whom Megatronus bested in combat: it was in this match that the crowd chanted a shorter name for the gladiator, Megatron. Shockwave moved to Kaon, becoming a surgeon for the gladiators, where he met Megatronus. There he began his combiner experiments, creating Bruticus Maximus, whose lack of intelligence in combined form made him a danger to friend and foe, and he was put in stasis lock. He was one of the scientists whose innovations allowed the mass production of stressed-crystal material used to build Crystal City. Shockwave was a scientist who lived on the fringes of Cybertronian society, admitting to Orion Pax he knew little of Iacon. He restored the only remaining Space bridge on Cybertron, powering it to warp space and time in order to look back on Earth during the Cretaceous Era as inspiration for his experiments. Shockwave worked with his Insecticon swarms and also was responsible for creating the Dinobots. He was responsible for creating a new underclass of Cybertronians known as the Forged, test subjects so mentally and physically damaged by his experiments that they forgot their original designations. Shockwave's brilliant but unhinged mind caused him to see other Cybertronians and society itself as a Petri dish for his experiments. After the Ark departed, Megatron left Shockwave behind to oversee Cybertron in his stead. He eventually became a member of Megatron's Decepticons as war broke out against the Autobots. Shockwave's genius led him to be the first Cybertronian able to translate the Quintesson language.Įven after the fall of the Quintessons, Shockwave remained on the outskirts of Cybertronian civilization, never taking any official position with the government or its council, despite his brilliance. Shockwave was among the earliest rebels to oppose their Quintesson "masters", and he rejected both the invaders and their puppet government. Shockwave emerged from the Well of All Sparks sometime during or prior to the Age of Wrath. 2.8 Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark.2.7 Transformers Prime: Decepticon Strike.2.2 Transformers: War for Cybertron - Decepticons (DS).2.1 Transformers: War for Cybertron (Xbox 360/PS3).1.8 Transformers: The Ultimate Pop-Up Universe.Primus help you if you actually do break his seemingly eternal calm. He does not take well to attempts on his life or his experiments failing or being tampered with. Shockwave is as brutal and fierce as any Decepticon warrior, and has the strength and durability to withstand everything from explosions to Autobot assault. His passive nature to goings-on around him may paint him as apathetic, but whoever believes that is writing their death warrant. Megatron is pleased by his dedication and his competence stemming from it, starkly contrasting with the egotistical and gloating Starscream. He's willing to ignore petty squabbles and jabs at him, and will only do what he finds logical. Shockwave naturally only serves his one true master: logic. Thankfully, Megatron's more practical nature reined in Shockwave as the movement which became the Decepticons finally moved out of the shadows. Serving as Megatron's "pet mad scientist" and second-in-command, he saw to the fighter's armament during his rise to prominence, all the while fantasizing on the prospect of mass producing such warriors. In a reversal of the usual order, he was swayed by the ambitions of the former mining caste member turned gladiator Megatron. Shockwave was a member of the scientist caste in the industrial city of Kaon.
