Editing Megatron (section)

====Titan Magazines====
All events that take place in the alternate reality where Megatron won the battle at Mission City are in italics.

In [[Titan Magazines]]' [[Transformers (comics)#Titan Magazines|''Transformers'']] magazine, the UK-originated strips (written by Simon Furman) reveal Megatron's actions between issues #1 and 2 of the IDW comic. Pursuing the Allspark into space following the events of ''Movie Prequel'' #1, Megatron is delayed in his pursuit by a tractor beam from Cybertron. Breaking free and attacking the culprits—Jazz, Ratchet, and Ironhide—Megatron realizes that if he engages them, he would be delayed further. Summoning [[Brawl (Transformers)#Transformers (film)|Devastator]] to deal with them, he resumes his pursuit—but the desperate gamble works and he (temporarily) loses the Allspark's trail.

The character profile the magazine provided sheds a little more light on Megatron's desire to possess the Allspark. He believes that while Cybertronians could already transform into other forms via a scanning process, the Allspark could allow Transformers to simply imagine the form they want and change accordingly. Interfacing with the Allspark directly, Megatron gains his deadly jet mode and begins his plans to obtain it permanently.

In "Twilight's Last Gleaming" part 3, [[Bumblebee (other incarnations)#Transformers|Bumblebee]] attempts to take on Megatron in the Sector 7 base as Mikaela attempts to free Optimus Prime, but she is attacked by Frenzy. In part 4, Mikaela frees Prime and freezes Frenzy just as Autobot reinforcements arrive and assist Bumblebee in fighting Megatron.
