Mastermind Creations comics
Screecher appears in the Mastermind Creations comic story "Cyclop's Plan". In the story Screecher, Stormer and Warper attack the White House in the year 1869, intent enslaving humans to serve the Eliminators. Cyclops contacts Screecher and orders him to wait, as humans have not advanced enough to be any use to the Eliminators. Screecher disobeys, so Cyclops sends Annhilator and an army of Screecher clones called the Crow Batallion. Although Screecher and his companions defeat the Crow Batallion, they are defeated by Annhilator. Screecher yields and follows orders from Cyclops to use organic robots to create terror and war on Earth, thus advancing human technology in mere decades to levels that would have taken centuries.<RED>http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-3rd-party-discussion/664186-mmc-airborne-squad-discussion-thread-12.html#post8477775</REF>
