Canute was in Stansham Castle when it was besieged in 1017 by the forces of Godwin—other Vikings from northern France intent on seizing the English throne from him. One night, during a lull in the siege when the attackers had been forced into retreat, soldiers on the ramparts witnessed the fiery atmospheric entry of an Autobot shuttle which then crashed nearby. The next day, Canute ordered scouts to investigate this "celestial omen". The scouts found the ship but were immediately ambushed by some of Godwin's men. Fastlane and Cloudraker, taking pity on Canute's men, intervened on their behalf. Canute's men nevertheless believed the Autobots to be devils, and they gave chase to Godwin's men rather than stick around. Meanwhile, the two clones fended off a Decepticon attack and then tried to escape in their ship, but it was shot down—crashing this time right into Stansham Castle. Transformers '84 #0
