Comic Plot

After the destruction of the Allspark and Megatron's death the Autobots and Humans are slowly trying to work together, but after a lengthy occupation the Humans aren't quite so willing to accept their alien "friends", especially with Starscream and his troops attacking Humans everywhere.
The new governments aren't too happy with the Autobots still being on Earth, whilst Mikaela is looking into an illness that's causing people to rapidly loose their energy. At the old site of the Allspark energy distribution hub, Skyblast finds a shard of the Allspark that is placed in Ratchet's care (in case it was corrupted by Megatron).
That night, the Decepticons make another attack, which the Autobots roll out to try and stop, and to protect the nearby human shelter, but end up frightening the humans again.
Near Marathon Starscream begins one of his new plans, where he activates a Cerebro Shell, that takes control of one of the human commanders and sends him to attack the Autobots.
