Comic Plot
Starscream is having a fit in the Amazon Forest and is tearing it apart, looking for ...something, anything, angry that he's going nowhere in his life. Starscream sees some humans nearby to kill and/or maim, when he notices that they're carrying a statue in his image, and gets an idea.
3 months later NEST is called into the area after several frantic calls from that region to look around there, when they notice a large stone effigy of Starscream and realise that he's at least been in the area lately.
The team walk through the forest and make it to an Incan temple with a large hole blasted out of it. Lennox calls for Doctor Redway and her team to leave the area, when a pair of missiles come out of the trees. The missiles hit Ratchet and almost hits the humans. The Autobots and Lennox engage Starscream in battle. Knowing that he's unlikely to win the fight, Starscream causes a fire in the surrounding trees and flies off. Ratchet uses his buzzsaw weapon to cut down some of the trees and stop the fire from spreading any further.
The tribes who worship Starscream as a god now watch as he flies off.

Comic Notes
- Ratchet actually has a big role in this comic....odd
- Starscream implies here that he's setting up his own army now (just like Bludgeon is too) this storyline however isn't picked up later due to the relaunching to DOTM a few issues later
- Starscream's been looking for any source of Energon on Earth now after the loss of the Allspark and Harvester.
- Starscream was obviously looking in the Incan Temple looking for a new energy source, perhaps thinking that another harvester is hidden inside another pyramid or something.
