Warning! Spoilers ahead for Transformers #11Optimus Prime could have Megatron’s cannon arm in the Energy UniverseBut the Autobot heroes of Transformers They are not finished with the weapons of their enemies in their eternal fight against the Decepticons. Now, the Decepticons have provided another weapon to the Autobot arsenal, one that proves to be quite useful in their latest mission against the sadistic Shockwave.
Coming from the creative team of Daniel Warren Johnson, Jorge Corona, Mike Spicer & Rus Wooton, Transformers #11 finds the Autobots rallying after their latest defeat to save the captive Jazz and Cliffjumper. To achieve their mission, Optimus Prime and company use the zombified Skywarp to teleport behind enemy lines.
Skywarp was previously “cannibalized” by his fellow Decepticons Starscream and Shockwave, after which his remains were used to rebuild Teletraan I on the Ark spaceship. After the Autobots reclaimed the Ark from the Decepticons, They also regained control of Teletraan I, and were now able to use Skywarp’s teleportation abilities.
Skywarp’s teleportation is the latest Decepticon “weapon” used by the Autobots
Skywarp is one of the few Transformers with the ability to teleport himself in an instant, though he rarely used it in a way that made him dangerous in the classic G1 continuity. The Energon Universe version of ​​the character used his abilities to good effect when He went toe-to-toe against none other than Optimus Prime, where Skywarp was able to hold his own. Teleportation is a useful ability, and one that the Autobots manage to exploit for themselves when they teleport into the Decepticon starship Nemesis and successfully rescue Jazz and Cliffjumper from Shockwave’s clutches.
Using Skywarp’s teleportation abilities continues the trend of the Autobots finding ways to use the Decepticons’ weapons against their enemies. Optimus currently has Megatron’s cannon arm after his own was damaged in battle, as the Autobot leader was able to use Megatron’s arm after slicing it off in battle when the Cybertronians crash landed on Earth millennia ago. The use of Megatron’s arm has made Optimus an even more deadly combatant on the battlefield, so the inclusion of Skywarp’s teleportation abilities to the Autobot arsenal should be a valuable addition.
The war between Autobots and Decepticons is ramping up
With the next issue concluding the current story arc, Transformers Looks to end his second year in epic fashion. The stakes couldn’t be higher in the current Autobot and Decepticon conflict, as Shockwave has brought Cybertron to Earth via a space-bridge. Whether Optimus Prime and the Autobots manage to use more Decepticon weapons in the Energy Universe That remains to be seen, so fans will have to keep reading Transformers To find out what happens next.
