[Down_Shift]

Something I had not really thought about though, now the US Armed Forces know that there was something flying in the sky, they were shown scrambling to get there. Is Sixshot going to get some target practice, or will he be ordered to "hide" from the military?

Megs did say to kill everything, so I would assume the military will give us the cheesy "cyber-ducks in a barrel" line were all expecting.

Man I hope so, I really want some "Mass Squishie Culling" action. But if Sixshot were to down the Military, then the Decepticon's cover would be blown sky high. (with the Reapers coming soon, I guess it'll happen anyways.)

i dont have them to hand right now, so im not sure which issue it is, i think escalation #6... but with the way Megatron ordered Astrotrain to bring Sixshot to earth,.. i think covers the last thing on his mind..

heh, Astrotrains face was a kodak moment...

Perhaps Sixshot secretly has a bone to pick with Megatron and therefore knew full-well that there may be survivors but he decided not to tell.

If that ends up the case, could Megatron take down Sixshot, Starscream, Astrotrain and Bliztwing???

Has anyone ever wondered if the severed head is in fact a human in "Headmaster mode"??? I personally do not think it is, but it could be a massive twist...

I had considered that, too. I can't see why a human would bother to make a Headmaster exosuit if they didn't have a body to put it on but it is possible that they did once have a body and then lost it. Maybe Zarak underwent some surgery after taking the hit in Magnus' spotlight, and is now on Earth to find a body for his head mode. Maybe it's Spike Witwicky! Maybe it's just some random human with a silly Furman name! It could really be anyone. Interesting thoughts.

You know that makes perfect sense, the line in Devastation two "most are human, the boss is not" lead me to assume that of course the boss is a robot based on what we've seen..silly silly assumption.

This would be a good curveball as without stating it Furman has got us all thinking its a robot when nothing has been set in stone.

It would also explain the letters, the company on Nebulos used the letter Z and the one on earth uses M both of which are Mo Zarak's initials, a long shot i know but it fits, and it also explains how just a head is running things as there is no way Scorponok would willingly sacrfice his body and be a floating head reliant on humans...unless its Zarak stuck in head mode.

Wait and see now i guess but hats off on the idea, i give it a lot of credit for being the right one

[Leonardo]

That would seem reasonable. If the Cranium had been developing Headmaster tech with trauma buffers, etc., and the Cranium's boss was injured right next to them, applying the Headmaster tech to 'repair' their boss' body seems logical as the tech would be conveniently on-hand, thus explaining why Zarak didn't go to a regular Nebulan hospital (or die).

On another note, is it the assumption that Ratbat came to Earth with Sixshot?

I am not sure... He is not with Soundwave, or shown with Megatron, nor under Machination control.. So i guess that leaves Sixshot as being the last Con left that he could have arrived with. Not sure I see the sense of him being with Sixshot, I would have thought he would have made an appearance in Spotlight Sixshot if that was the case.

Unless he is working for the "Earthbound Decepticons" that have been hinted at in upcoming issues, and is acting like an advanced Spy (yeah, it's very doubtful).

[Leonardo]

I don't know, he could be a spy. From what we've actually had thus far, I think he must have come with Sixshot otherwise surely he would have been either seen or mentioned before.

Perhaps he is on orders by Megatron... (Since Soundwave has been out of the Picture for over a decade).

But then that means Sixshot had "lost" him during his Spotlight, and must have "picked him up" on his way to Earth.

It's possible that this is Ratbat's first pairing with Sixshot. Maybe, when Sixshot was summoned to Earth, Ratbat was ordered to rendez-vous with him from elsewhere in the universe (in much the same way as Optimus ordered Nightbeat to rendez-vous with Ark 32 at the end of Nightbeat's spotlight). That would explain why Ratbat wasn't present in Sixshot's spotlight, although where Ratbat was and what he was doing is anyone's guess.

Guess that means Ratbat is on par with his Marvel G1 intelligence, a completely different type of cassette to the more animalistic Laserbeak and Ravage.

With all this dissatisfaction and insurrection in the Decepticon Earth infiltration unit, it'd be quite funny if Megatron was toppled and Ratbat came out on top.

Or, if when Ratbat turned into a CD player or whatever, someone pressed Shuffle and he did a crazy dance.

That would be the highest selling transformers comic in history!
