you must mean Scrapper who was killed back in All Hail Megatron.
Scrapper was actually killed by Spike in the first ongoing. Issue #9, I believe.
Nope, it was #8.
Indeed. Pinned by a bunch of construction debris (how ironic) and then Spike blew his head clean off. Just re-read the issue a few days ago while re-packing all of my old TF comics into more secure containers.

I hope the writers will come up with something interesting and even go more into the backstory of the characters. I wouldn't even mind seeing Devastator trying to compensate for a missing leg and one missing member from his conscience.
I think they've done quite a fine job of compensating and finding a replacement for Scrapper. Prowl might not be too fond of the choice of replacement and I know it galls him having 5 new "best friends" but he's actually gone willingly into his new role as a combiner member once now. They may yet have him do it again.
