In one future, set in the year 2510, the war with the Decepticons finally came to a conclusion. In 2008, Springer was briefly seen among a massive melee between the Autobots and Decepticons on Cybertron. Divide and Conquer! Marvel UK future timelines Where Wolf? Soon thereafter, Springer led his men against Starscream, protecting a human oil tanker in the Gulf of Mexico. They were successful, and half the Mayhems were captured while the other half died at Carnivac's hands. Wolf in the Fold! Still, they went to Earthforce, pledging the Survivors' allegiance in return for them helping rescue Carnivac. Asking for help to save a Decepticon.Springer ruminated that Grimlock was likely to declare them all traitors on the spot. Without time to formulate a decent plan, Springer realized the Survivors would need raw numbers to defeat the Mayhems, and that meant dealing with Grimlock and Earthforce. He set off on his own to enact his revenge. Springer wanted to wait for the Mayhem Attack Squad to make the first mistake before seeking vengeance for Catilla, but Carnivac couldn't wait. Note: These stories do not fit into the normal Marvel continuity. Survivors! Carnivac eventually chafed under his leadership, whacked Springer one, and then left-right when the new Mayhems were arriving to kill him! Way of the Warrior Springer was convinced by the others to go to Carnivac's aid, but while Carnivac was saved, Catilla was killed. Springer was originally reluctant but soon became the leader of that group too. Left stranded on Earth, Springer and the other Time Wars survivors decided to band together as the eponymous Survivors after a proposal from Carnivac. However, Springer's heroism impressed Mayhem leader Carnivac so much he disobeyed his orders to kill the surviving Autobots the two also saved each other's life during the battle. Even with the support of the Decepticon Mayhem Attack Squad, the Wreckers were massacred, with Springer's order to retreat and fight a running battle doing nothing to stop the slaughter. Wrecking Havoc! Unfortunately, that "later" was the Time Wars. Springer led the Wreckers back to Cybertron with the intent of returning for Galvatron later. Springer quickly decided to take the fight out of the city, pretending he'd captured Galvatron's time-jump device and leading Scourge and Cyclonus away from the humans. Unfortunately, by accident they found themselves sent by the Space Bridge to a human city, and the fight against Galvatron began causing major destruction and endangerment of human life.

Legion of the Lost! Alongside a host of allies, Springer helped end the zombie threat. He felt unworthy of the role and suffered from worries that he couldn't handle it, worries made worse when Kalis was overrun by the undead, the Wreckers were captured, and Springer had to face Impactor's zombie! Unable to blast his old comrade, Springer instead succeeded in getting Impactor's mind to resurface, allowing him to carry on to meet up with Ultra Magnus' team. Target: 2006 It appears to have made an impact, as when Impactor died it was discovered he had named Springer as his successor. He first met the squad leader Impactor by beating him up while pretending to be a Decepticon, Emirate Xaaron feeling this would be the best way to sell Springer's skills to Impactor. Springer was a member of the Wreckers commando squad, originally meant (with the other Triple Changers) to substitute for Ultra Magnus in Operation: Volcano, and could 'spring' forwards really far.
