Takara Tomy Mall has uploaded the second chapter of the Transformers Generation Selects Abominus Web Comic/Manga in their listing for the toy.

The story takes places immediately after the previous Abominus manga ended (you can find an English translation here). Story goes more complex, more great battles and some unexpected events and combinations:

  • Rung tries to help an agonizing Spike and finally realizes the evil plan of the Quintessons. Spike shows Rung a hidden robot in the lab.
  • The Angolmois energy has transformed several Transformers into their Shattered Glass versions and Megatron Omega rises again.
  • Computron, Defensor, and Superion charge against Abominus, but the powered-up combiner is too much for them. Scattershot combines with part of the Aerialbots and the Protectobots to fight again.
  • Abominus gets a new combiner form with some Stunticons and Combaticons.
  • Rung faces the Quintesson with the help of the mysterious robot (a mix of several Weaponizers).
  • Megatron Omega leaves Optimus Prime on the verge of death. Megatron Omega is about to destroy Abominus but Volcanicus saves him.
  • Abominus now fights together with Volcanicus to try to defeat Megatron Omega, but he seems unstoppable.
  • Primus finally appears.
