| - Dirge observes a struggle between G.I. Joe and Cobra for Power Station Alpha from high above and relays it to Shockwave. Due to their common interest in Power Station Alpha, the Decepticons state to cobra their interest on an alliance. Later, Dr. Mindbender overhears Shockwave informing Bombshell and Dirge of his plan to convert Alpha into a device to tap into the Earth's natural energy...a plan Mindbender realises will destroy the planet.(Power Struggle) Shockwave, after getting the Decepticon leadership, shows the Decepticons a video presentation of his plans for the Power Station Alpha. He will use it to extract all conceivable energy from the Earth, and beam said energy to Cybertron, leaving the Earth nothing but a lifeless fireball. At the end of his presentation, Cobra arrives outside their base. The two evil organizations make plans to ally and use Alpha to their mutual benefit, but both are quietly planning to betray the other. Shockwave talks Serpentor into attacking the Autobots at the Ark and retrieving a generator the Decepticons need to make adjustments on Alpha. Dirge goes with Cobra; stays with the Decepticons. (Ashes, Ashes...) At the Decepticon base, Shockwave instructs Bombshell to dispose of Doctor Mindbender but he is saved by the intervention of the Baroness. The two Cobra agents depart, taking Bombshell with them in insect mode, and depart for Seattle. As the attack of an Autobots/GI Joe/Cobra alliance begins, Shockwave dispatches a group of Decepticon planes to counter the aircraft and also has the Constructicons combine into Devastator. The Decepticons are defeated anyways. (...All Fall Down! (G.I. Joe and the Transformers))
