I was surprised as well, he nearly kills Megatron with one blast.

Though he caught the autobots offguard, he takes them all out with one attack.

During his Spotlight Comic he has a much better fight with the dinobots and wins again.

He takes on the autobot Fortress Maximus, the dude's pretty tough. Shockwave was winning at first but...what can I say?

In my opinion this is his best fight ever, he almost kills Megatron.

This fight with Scorponok is very questionable. He was crushed with over 400 tons of wreckage but he rose up and actually beat Shockwave. Hats off to him.

Ultra Magnus did pretty good but Shockwave was too good, until a well developed plot comes into play.

The Shockwave portrayed in the movie DOTM was incredibly underrated, he did not live up to the cartoon and comic versions. The original was on par with Megatron and Optimus Prime and could even defeat them on a good day. Keep in mind that both have been stated to lift 1,000 tons +

Very nice! I have a thing for under-rated characters and Shockwave never got the respect he deserved.

I still cannot believe he beat the entire Dinobot team, not once but twice!

Movie Counterpart

If you saw DOTM and asked "What happened to that guy from the second film who was ditched by the soliders in the desert?" Well Shockwave happened.

Logical.uhuh
I havent read it but gonna try to get them tomorrow.

I quickly ran through DC besides tricking everyone and geting an upgrade for a short time he didnt fight much.
He whooped on Megatron ,Magnus and Optimus but he was leeching energy from a Universe so that shouldnt be much of a feat.

I still liked how he had started putting things into motion with the various ore's he planted throughout the universe, Without the rest the Decepticon's knowing.

Builds a space bridge inside Megatron's body which is capable of transporting Galvatron from a different Universe.

Reveals his plan to Galvatron.He planted ores across the galaxy without anyone knowing.These ores drain the power of the Dead Universe and uses Galvatron as a conduit.Later he uses a Time Drive to syphon the energy of the other Universe.
With this power Shockwave can bend time and space to his will.

There's a origin that they did for the Shockwave with the IDW comics, "Robots in Disguise" #17, Shows how he was a senator

Its a good read showing him upgrading bots who he thought had a good character, including Orion Pax to carry the Matrix. Eventually the ones in control had enough of his input so they did a thing on him called Empurata

here have a read

Damn, Shockwave's a beast! Are there any other Transformers respect threads?

Dont think so..I might make an Optimus or Megatron though...

Have to get up my lazy ass first.haermm

Have to get up my lazy ass first.haermm You could probably make an Autobot respect thread or a Decepticon thread with sections of certain Transformer's feats (like having a specific section for Jazz or Optimus or Soundwave or Megatron). Anyway, I certainly want to see more Transformers related feats in the future.

Those respect threads would be cool for sure.
Might make one leaning towards Optimus atm.

Found out recently Shockwave is still alive after the Dark Cybertron event and was sent 12 million years into the past, Where he immediately killed Onyx Prime and personally orchestrated the entire history of Cybertron based on the stories of Alpha Trion.
