Mayhem Suppression Squad (SG)


 * The Mayhem Suppression Squad is a Decepticon subgroup from the Shattered Glass universe.

The Mayhem Suppression Squad is a squad of heroic Decepticon warriors dedicated to, well, suppressing mayhem. Sometimes they work for the Quintesson Federation, other times they work for Megatron, who is a little concerned by their... enthusiasm.

"Come, villain! The Mayhem Suppression Squad has shown you its valor, can you not do more?"

- Carnivac to Optimus Prime

Shattered Expectations
Responding to Razorclaw's signal, the members of the Mayhem Suppression Squad leaped out of Astrotrain and descended upon Jazz, Grimlock, and Goldbug.

Shattered Glass
When the Decepticons were besieged by the Autobots' attempt to take over the Arch-Ayr fuel dump in Kaon, Soundwave "called in the cavalry", i.e. the Mayhem Suppression Squad.

Crasher led the squad into battle, using her seismic abilities to shake the ground and send Huffer and Hound flying. She then commenced to start pounding on Hound, while Thundercracker and Dirge flew in. Dirge attacked Rodimus and Arcee with his laughter-inducing ability, leaving Rodimus incapacitated. Arcee, however, was able to recover, until Thundercracker encased her in a bubble of silence, driving her even more mad with the quiet so Gutcruncher could take her out.

Bludgeon and Carnivac came in next, going after Optimus Prime. Though they weren't able to outright defeat him, they were able to harrass him greatly by alternating between Bludgeon hip-shooting him with his pistols and Carnivac chewing on him, so Cliffjumper could follow up with artillery fire.

Their efforts helped turn the tide and cause the Autobots to fall back, but Megatron was a little put off by their enthusiasm.

Trivia

 * Each member of the Mayhem Suppression Squad in "Shattered Expectations" is a good-alternate-universe-doppelganger of a previous Fun Publications exclusive character.
 * Deathsaurus's color scheme is based on Star Saber from Victory. His pose is also identical to Bludgeon's on the third page of "Tales of Earth Part One" from the Generation 2 comic.
 * Bug Bite is basically his normal self, with Good Guy Insignia Color Red replacing his Bad Guy Insignia Color Purple. And an eyepatch. And a mustache. And a British speech pattern. His pose is lifted from Sideswipe's first appearance in Generation 2 #1, "War Without End!".
 * Thundercracker is in a Classics Seeker body with his Action Master color scheme.
 * Laserbeak's color scheme is similar to Armada Laserbeak's.
