COSMIC RUST


While traveling through deep space, the Decepticons discover a deserted planet marked with an enormous Autobot Symbol. Starscream activates a hologram, which gives this warning:

"If Cybertron be your home, far away never roam. Hear my message, listen in fear. Danger comes, the end is near. Just like us, you soon will rust. All shall be turned to dust."

Ignoring the warning Megatron orders the Decepticons to search the planet and they discover a heat ray device shaped like a Lightning Bug.

On the trip back to Earth, Astrotrain encounters an asteroid, which Megatron blasts with the Lightning Bug. The asteroid explodes, send fragments into Astrotrain's hull, striking Megatron, as well.

Back on Earth, Starscream removes a fragment of the asteroid and notices that Megatron is rusting around the wound, despite the fact that Cybertronians are Rust-Proof.

Elsewhere, Perceptor receives an award for inventing a new material called Corrostop, which keeps Earth Metals from corroding, and he announces his plans to coat all of Earth's monuments with it, starting with the Statue of Liberty.

While the Autobots cover the Statue of Liberty with Corrostop, Megatron sends the Stunticons to abduct Perceptor, in order to diagnose Megatron's strange rust-causing malady. The Stunticons force Perceptor to board Blitzwing, who takes him to Decepticon Headquarters.

Inside the Undersea Base, Megatron offers to end the war if Perceptor will cure him. Perceptor agrees and examines Megatron. Megatron has been infected with a metallic plague, called Cosmic Rust, that is fueled by Megatron's new heat ray device. Perceptor uses some Corrostop to coat Megatron and cure him from the infection.

Meanwhile, Blaster and Cosmos report that no more Corrostop can be made, because the secret catalyst is all used up.

Back in the Autobot Volcano, Optimus Prime is contacted by Megatron, who tells him where he can find Perceptor. The Autobots rush to rescue Perceptor and return him to Autobot HQ, but Perceptor has been infected with Cosmic Rust.

Perceptor and Wheeljack struggle to get the malfunctioning matter duplicator to work, in order to make more Corrostop, without the catalyst. They succeed in getting the device to work, but they need a sample of Corrostop from the Statue of Liberty.

The Decepticons discover the Autobots' plan and go to destroy the Statue with the Heat Ray, but the Autobots arrive to stop them. A firefight ensues. Superion battles Menasor and destroys the Lightning Bug. The Decepticons retreat, allowing the Autobots to get the cure.
