Notes

[edit]
  • Abel's name is derived from the biblical [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Abel (given name)|{{#if:Abel|Abel|Abel (given name)}}]], who according to the mythology was the first murder victim. It is one of the very few Transformer names of Hebrew origin and is theorized to mean either "mist", symbolizing transience, or "son".
