Megatron Tribute

“So long as you stand in my way—so long as anyone stands in my way, I will respond by killing. Murder on an industrial scale. Because in the final analysis, I would happily wade across a river of corpses, chest-deep in rust and grease and engine oil, just to crush the spark of the last Autobot standing. And I would not do so simply as a means to an end. No. I’d do it, Prime, because it would give me pleasure.”- Megatron

Keep Calm and Hail Megatron. Here it is, everybody, my favourite villain of all time, forging peace through tyranny to the sound of I Will Rule the Universe by Civil War. Megatron is absolutely my favourite bad guy: a violent revolutionary leader who was willing to do whatever it took to rid Cybertron of the oppressive tyranny of the Functionist system…and replace it with his own brand of Decepticon tyranny. He wanted to do his revolution together with his old friend Orion Pax, but he couldn’t stand by the violence, and so the two brothers in arms, who had once fought side by side as allies, now took to warring with each other as enemies. Though that might not be the story in every continuity, one constant is that their war always just so happens to find its way here. And not one Earth-born thing is ready to face a monster like him. He’s known as the Dominator, the Destroyer, the Silver Tyrant, the Emperor of Destruction. But he doesn’t give a damn what you call him. He doesn’t have to. After all, he will rule the universe…
