Venom is our official boss, given that he's got the highest rank. However, we're never with him - we're always off on Earth with Megatron or getting yelled at by Straxus, while Venom is part of the Mayhem Attack Squad.

More Than Meets The Eye Profile

Bio: Venom undermines his own position as nominal leader of the Insecticons by ostracising himself from the others. He fears that allowing anyone too close would open him up to blackmail or make him vulnerable to attack. While he's not entirely wrong - Decepticons like Kickback live for such opportunities - this attitude also makes it impossible for him to establish his control over the group. Venom knows that he's the most qualified leader in terms of experience, but he particularly fears Shrapnel as a threat to his command.

Weapons/Abilities: Subject is incredibly intelligent and skilled. He is an expert in psychology and tactics, although he is less skilled in the cognitive realm than Bombshell. In insect mode, he can fly at 15 mph for 300 miles. His stinger is capable of punching through up to 1/4 inch of steel but can break off in some stronger metals. Once inserted, the stinger can pump any number of toxins into its target, from corrosive acid that can dissolve a Transformer's innards to powerful neurotoxins that affect organic life forms. In robot mode, he weilds an electro-blaster rifle and an electro-scythe.

Weaknesses: Subject is physically weak and slow. His paranoia and inability to trust his troops diminishes his ability to command.
