Synopsis

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: The Comics collects every issue of the original Generation 1 Transformers manga published in the pages of TV Magazine. Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers Prologue (2 issues, 05/85-06/85) Hundreds of thousands of years ago there existed a highly-advanced planet called Cybertron. The planet was controlled by two factions of super robot lifeforms: the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons. Their endless war drained Cybertron of all its energy, leading to both factions leaving the planet in search of new energy sources. Their battle raged on, eventually reaching the vicinity of prehistoric Earth. Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (8 issues, 04/86-11/86) Trouble is brewing in Tokyo, Japan – Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker are on the attack, out to pillage energy and cause some general destruction.

Main characters

Optimus Prime214 fan favorites
External profile
Optimus Prime (Convoy in Japanese version) is the awe-inspiring leader of the Autobot forces (Cybertron forces in Japanese). Selfless and endlessly courageous, he is the complete opposite of his mortal enemy Megatron. Originally a mere civilian, he was chosen by the Matrix to command, the first in a number of heavy burdens he has been forced to bear. Another is his bringing of the Transformers' conflict to Earth. Every casualty, human or Cybertronian, weighs heavily on his spark. He does not show this side to his soldiers, and he never succumbs to despair. The Autobots need a decisive, charismatic leader, and that is what he gives them. It was that leadership which turned the tide of the Great War. On the battlefield, there are few who rival Optimus Prime's prowess. He is easily the strongest of any Autobot his size, and his ion blaster and his energon-axe are deadly weapons. He would sacrifice his life to protect his fellow Autobots or those under their care, and does so on a regular basis. His compassion for other sentient beings is his only real weakness, and one the Decepticons have taken advantage of time and again... though it's also the source of his strength! Prime carries within him the Matrix of Leadership. (Source: Transformers Wiki, edited)

External profile
Once, Wilder was just a typical juvenile delinquent pretty-boy who expressed his discontent with the world by founding a motorcycle gang with some of his friends. Then one day, while they were having the sort of anti-authority fun The Man didn't like them having, they got beaten up by a rival gang. Having had the one thing he gave anything in the way of a flying fig about taken away, Wilder decided that the best thing to do would be to take his frustration out on society by joining up with the Destrons (Decepticons). And to his "credit", Wilder didn't do it by half—he has flung himself so deeply into the evil world of the Destrons and embraced it so eagerly, that there may be no coming back. As a Headmaster Junior warrior, Wilder is bonded to a Transtector from the planet Master which takes the form of a winged, bipedal wolf-monster. In becoming a Destron, Wilder believes he has sold his soul, but based on the disinterested ease with which he is able to admit to this, he seems to consider it small change. And the hell with other people—Wilder is only out for Wilder, and the rest of the world can burn as long as he can claim to be powerful. As a Headmaster Junior, he is above humans, and he won't hesitate to beat his once-best friend half to death or kill a dog to prove it.
