Megatron: Origin again

[fierceawakening]

Because some people who haven't read it are curious, here's another post on it. The good stuff, in no particular order. Possible mild spoilers depending on how finicky you are about them:

1. Most clever use of a rubsign ever.
2. Megatron killing Cy-Kill in a pit fight. Graphically.
3. The most twisted use of the phrase "'Til all are one" ever. Seriously, it gave me shudders. Someone is a very sick little genius.
4. Sentinel Prime, taunting a captured Megatron: "So this is Megatron, huh? The big bad himself? I don't see it." Megatron: "Keep looking."
5. Megatron seated on a throne built out of a defeated enemy's armor. Oh yes.
   
6. Megatron's fusion cannon is, according to this comic, a present from Starscream. And all the fangirls squee and faint and slash with renewed vigor. :)
7. Megs having long flowing hair spiky panels under his helmet. This is either awesome because it actually looks pretty cool to you, or (more likely) awesome because it is so silly that it's unintentionally hilarious.
8. Megs' speeches. (Particularly memorable bit: "[In the pit fights] we can wear badges, join teams, fight and kill. Then the badge comes off -- and you crawl home. Assembled here I see strength. Power. The most dangerous Cybertronians alive. So... what if the badge never came off?")
9. Starscream's (less frequent) speeches. (Particularly memorable: "I have a message to all of you [members of the Kaon Council], from all of those in your cells [meaning the imprisoned they're-not-called-Decepticons-quite-yet.] Through your own interests, you created this. You brought us here. You didn't just make it possible, you made it happen. All we did was give it a badge.")
10. Soundwave turning someone into one of his cassette guys -- by shooting him half to hell, picking him up, and forcibly compressing him into a compact shape. Goddamn, son.

And last but not least:

This one really is a spoiler, but too awesome not to list. Don't look if you don't want to know.

Sentinel Prime: "This insurrection -- treachery -- the worst decept --"
Megatron, getting An Idea: "That's right, Prime, we're everything you said -- and worse!
