Basically after Optimus Prime took out Bonecrusher, Barricade jumped Optimus, and this occured...

"There followed a flurry of furious action that ended only when Optimus flipped the machine clinging to him against a steel-and-cement freeway pillar. The impact cracked and bent the column. It did worse to Barricade, who lay twisted and unmoving."

Before I saw that I just knew that Barricade got the crap kicked out of him.

It doesn't say he was killed. It's just like what Bumblebee did to him.

He's just twisted and unmoving. Bumblebee did worse to him.
Shorted his circuit or something. Causing some sparks to fly.

He'll surely survive. No doubt.

indeed - if they can survive impact from orbit they can take any blow a fellow transformer can give out

The pointi s the book and comic aren't the movie, so it probably won't happen, or be explained. Ever.
