Megatron - the robot who will one day become Galvatron - recently lost his mind following the death of Optimus Prime, and seemingly blew himself up. He emerged again, though physically and mentally damaged (during TRANSFORMERS VS ACTION FORCE). Since then, Optimus has returned in a new Powermaster body, and Megatron has become a pawn of Shockwave. Learning that Cyclonus and Scourge kill him in the future, Shockwave sent Megatron to kill them both. Scourge escaped the former Decepticon leaders rampage, but Cyclonus was destroyed. This was the final straw for the cosmos as the tear in space-time became a rift that began to consume all reality.
Multiple storylines come to a head in Marvel UK's Transformers series. Will the Autobots and Decepticons save existence by setting things right or will the fateful meeting of Megatron and his future self, Galvatron, be the final nail in reality's coffin?
