The name or term Dreadwing refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Dreadwing (disambiguation).



Dreadwing is the split spark twin brother of Skyquake. He was once captain of a Seeker armada. He is an expert in explosives. Like Skyquake, Dreadwing is intensely loyal to Megatron, though his loyalty to his twin may be stronger. Unlike his brother, Dreadwing is better at keeping his temper in check.

Unlike most Decepticons, Dreadwing has a sense of honor, a great deal of tactical knowledge and knows when a battle is lost. Also, if a mission goes south, he is willing to let the Autobots live if it means the survival of the Decepticon cause.

Fiction

Prime cartoon

Dreadwing and Skyquake were created from two halves of the same life force which created them. Even across the galaxy, they could sense each other. Loose Cannons

Dreadwing sensed his brothers emergence from stasis on Earth, Masters & Students and his subsequent demise, from across the galaxy, and set out to seek confirmation. Loose Cannons

While heading for Earth, he stopped to kill Autobot Wrecker Seaspray and Wheeljack. Though he succeeded in killing Seaspray, Wheeljack was able to escape and pursed him across one hundred light years of space before he was shot down on Earth. After they crashed, the two engaged in a fire fight, but Dreadwing was soon out numbered by four Autobots and Agent Fowler. Outnumbered, Dreadwing scanned Fowler's jet and took off. Using his cell phone, he contacted the Nemesis and met Megatron, who confirmed the death of his twin brother, Skyquake, and vowed to destroy all Autobots as an act of revenge.

Despite Megatron insisting he not engage the Autobots outside of orders, Dreadwing planed to kill Optimus Prime by strapping a bomb to Bulkhead. He proposed a challenge to Wheeljack which he accepted. Dreadwing was able to overpower him and Bulkhead and took the big Wrecker as bait for a trap. When Wheeljack, along with Optimus Prime who had accompanied Wheeljack, found Bulkhead, Dreadwing had attached a bomb to him as part of a trap to kill both of them. Wheeljack attempted to disable the bomb strapped to Bulk but realized that only Dreadwing knew how. Megatron then contacted him and told him to stop but when Dreadwing insisted he could win, Megatron relented (secretly doubting his survival). Optimus Prime tried to make Dreadwing see reason but Dreadwing engaged the three bots. The three bots defeated Dreadwing and pinned him under machinery, forcing him to either deactivate the bomb or die along with them. Soundly beaten, Dreadwing returned to Megatron, who was pleased his underling learned a harsh lesson, and vowed to only obey his Master, no longer seeking revenge for his brother. Loose Cannons

A bit later, the Nemesis had crashed due to recent events and sustained heavy damage. Dreadwing informed Megatron of the full extent of the damage. Not wanting the ship to be destroyed, Megatron infused his recently acquired Dark Energon to re-power the ship to which Dreadwing witnessed.

He also witnessed the ship's new stasis beam cannon disable all the Autobots. However, when Megatron wanted to reclaim his Spark Extractor from the Autobots, the ship being to change course. Eventually the ship talked and warned all Decepticons to not to interfere with his gathering of the remaining Iacon artifacts.

Notes

  • Just like Starscream, Dreadwing is a Seeker, though Dreadwing seems to be a higher rank. Ironically Dreadwing, would also take Starscreams place of second-in-command.
  • He is voiced by Tony Todd, who voiced the Fallen, Megatron's master in the Revenge of the Fallen film. Only this time, Todd voiced someone whose master is Megatron. Karma much?
  • Dreadwing's knowledge of his brother Skyquake's demise is due to a shared spark between the two and Dreadwing was able to "feel" Skyquake's death. This relation between the two is similar to the relation between Rampage and Dinobot II, who also shared a spark.
  • When Megatron takes Dreadwing with him to Cybertron in order to obtain the "power" of a Prime, they enter a tomb, to which Dreadwing expresses that places like that evoke strong emotions in him. This could indicate that Dreadwing did not like the decision to place Skyquake in stasis on Earth.
