Rotf-knockout-comic-nefarious-1 Like Jolt, Knock Out was part of the team sent to counter Soundwave's attack on the power plant. He went along with Bumblebee and Landmine. He was also present at Galloway's rant about the damaged caused in the attack. Later, he was on the NEST cargo plane transporting the captured Soundwave. He survived the crash caused by Buzzsaw and helped the other Autobots transport Soundwave by road. When Dirt Boss attacked the zoo where Soundwave is, Knock Out was attacked by Ratbat, who ripped out his front head light. Fortunately, he survived the assault, thanks to Bumblebee.
