>>10431193>is THAT where those come from, and why tigatron has that body that looks like ravage's... well damn that's alright.Yeah, there's a whole second half of the Beast Wars in the comics that happens after Primal and co. capture Megatron and leave - Tarantuals survived (which shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone who saw the show - he's been blown up in far worse ways and walked away, so it makes sense) and he basically ends up becoming the new Big Bad. The Vok come looking for the two that had been piloting Tigerhawk's body (now enslaved by Tarantuals) and realize he's become a huge threat to the timeline, so they create Primal Prime from the mech suit Quickstrike was using to control Primal in that one episode and have him (with Airazor and Tigatron) running around trying to revive the rest of the Stasis Pods that everyone abandoned while Tarantuals does the same, resulting in every character that ever had a toy making an appearance and forming two whole armies that go to war with each other. In addition to the 'newbies', the 3H comics are also what establish characters like Grimlock, Ironhide, Silverbolt (the Eagle, not the Fuzor), and so on to be the original characters in new bodies; also Iguanus (who ends up as Tarantuals' right hand man) MAY be the same dude from G1, having finally become an actual lizard.
Anyway, most of the cast dies, but some make it back to Cybertron after following through Tarantulas' Space Bridge (which Tarantuals tests by throwing a captured Waspinator through it before realizing it needs adjustments, explaining how he ended up on Cybertron in time to get his Spark swiped for BM). All of it ends up connecting to the Universe 2003 storyline, because Tarantuals is the one who ends up reviving Unicron and helping him abduct characters through time and space to let him feed off of their Energeon, or something like that; the story ended up unfinished, so there's a lot missing towards the end.
