Editing Megatron (section)

====Dreamwave Productions====
The story of Megatron in the ''[[Transformers: Armada (comics)|Armada]]'' comics would be similar to his animated counterpart, but with an expanded backstory. Attacking various [[Mini-Con]] villages to draw the Autobots away, Megatron's forces then declared war and invaded Cyber-City, crushing all resistance and announcing himself as its new leader. The Autobots returned but were no match for the Mini-Con-enhanced Decepticons. However, a handful of Mini-Cons broke into Decepticon headquarters, freed most of their comrades, and evacuated the planet. Despite this setback, the few Mini-Cons that Megatron had left were still enough to allow him to conquer Cybertron.

Realizing that the threat Unicron posed was too great to be overcome on his own, Megatron agreed to cooperate with Optimus Prime by pooling resources. Megatron's Decepticons and the Autobots came to a truce for their final battle with Unicron. Megatron returned the Mini-Cons and joined the battle against Unicron, but secretly planned to let the Autobots die and then strike a bargain with Unicron. In the final battle with Unicron, [[Hot Shot (Transformers)|Hot Shot]], [[Red Alert (Transformers)|Red Alert]] and [[Scavenger (Transformers)|Scavenger]] attacked Megatron and knocked him into Unicron's mouth, where he was devoured alive.(Transformers: Armada #18 )

The origin of ''Energon'' Megatron was different in the Dreamwave comics. Although Megatron appeared dead, seemingly devoured by Unicron at the end of the ''Armada'' comics, it was later revealed that Megatron's mind was trapped within Unicron's bulk, where he existed undetected by Unicron, slowly building himself a new body. However, he could not move his consciousness into the body without being detected by Unicron.

Megatron would also appear in the Energon promotional comic. On Earth, Megatron, with the aid of [[Cyclonus|Snowcat]], [[Shockwave (Transformers)|Shockwave]], [[Mirage (Transformers)|Mirage]] and Demolishor, has cornered Optimus Prime and a wounded [[Hot Shot (Transformers)|Hot Shot]]. Optimus refused to give up despite the odds. The other Autobot reinforcements were over ten minutes away when [[Wing Saber]] arrived. Megatron was shocked to learn the power of Optimus Prime when he Powerlink with Wing Saber and turned back all the Decepticons, and then Megatron himself. The Autobots then arrive and Optimus thanked Wing Saber for his help.
