![]() Undaunted, Gigawatt joined up with Rodimus Prime's Autobot resistance and attempted to use his unusual new ability to benefit his new allies by traveling back to the year 1974 and stopping Rumble. He nearly did so but took a blast from Megatron at the last moment that damaged his new alternate mode's flux capacitor. When he raised the issue with his leader, he received a warning to focus on his work or face the consequences-but Gigawatt could no longer support his leader in good conscience and instead trans-scanned the DeLorean itself in the hopes that he could travel back in time and set things right. ![]() By the year 2015, Gigawatt received the task of extracting memories from Rumble's disembodied head and analyzing the DeLorean time machine, but soon became uncomfortable with Megatron's ruthless habit of executing under-performing human coordinators. Without the Autobots to mount an effective resistance, Megatron quickly conquered Earth and enslaved humanity. Reactivated along with his leader, Gigawatt watched Megatron execute the still-dormant Optimus Prime and the other Autobots, then destroy the temporal duplicate of Rumble who had masterminded the whole scheme in the first place. ![]() In the year 1984, Teletraan-1 reactivated Megatron and the other Decepticons ahead of schedule thanks to a time-travelling Rumble, who had used Doc Brown's DeLorean to travel back in time from 2015 and bring his leader online. Gigawatt was one of the many dormant Decepticons who had been entombed aboard the Ark when it crash-landed on Earth millions of years in the past. You're never outta time when you're a time machine.Ĭhange a hawk to a little white dove, and roll out! Aided by his human companions Marty McFly and Doc Brown, Gigawatt might be the only 'bot who can prevent Decepticon domination over Earth's past, present, and future-but is he up to the task? His DeLorean time machine alternate mode gives him the potent ability to travel to any period in history, and he's augmented with future technology that allows him to hover in place or even fly at great speeds. When it comes to fighting Decepticons across multiple time periods or preventing damage to the timestream, there are few other Autobots quite as up to the job as Gigawatt. Kind-hearted and empathetic, if a little awkward and unsure of himself, Gigawatt was just a low-ranking Decepticon number-cruncher until a crisis of conscience pushed him out of the Decepticons and into the Autobot ranks, where he now does his best to redeem himself. A repentant ex- Decepticon from a doomed alternate future, the most surprising thing about Gigawatt is the fact that he didn't join the Autobots sooner.
