Talk:Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity

Nobble?

"Shockwave laughed that off, thinking he was too high profile for Sentinel to nobble." What in the world does "nobble" mean? --Khajidha 10:31, 22 November 2012 (EST)

I also question whether Shockwave was exactly "right-hearted" as a Senator. Dude had some creep-factor. --ItsWalky 10:58, 22 November 2012 (EST)

I admit that description is rather my personal opinion. If needed, don't mind to edit it. – Thunderweb 19:08, 22 November 2012 (EST)

To quote Urban Dictionary: "To destroy, damage, wreck, ruin, or generally f*** something up to the point that it's unusable, or to f*** someone up or pop a cap in their ass." FishpopUK (talk) 08:06, 12 April 2025 (EDT)

First appearance

Why do we need the "Transformers Annual 2017 (as Onyx Prime)" listed as a second first appearance? --abates (talk) 18:49, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

Because it provides information that is not easy to suss out independently, either by reading the comics or the wiki, due to the long-running, slow-burning nature of the Onyx plot that took place across multiple titles? --Xaaron (talk) 22:19, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

To me, it's like listing Dick Grayson's first appearance as Robin, and then his first appearance as Nightwing, or other situations like that. Escargon (talk) 22:33, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

I think it's useful for readers. S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 22:35, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

Given the spoiler-y nature of this, however, perhaps we should move Onyx Prime's first appearance to the "Onyx Prime" section? Grum (talk) 22:37, 14 August 2018 (EDT)

I don't think that's necessary. The spoilers are months old -- now it's just part of the narrative. We're not hiding the other identities of Dominus, Minimus or Tarn on their pages, nor should we. Besides, there's still going to be a sub-heading dubbed "Onyx Prime" at the top of this page. Sort of gives it away regardless, yes? --Xaaron (talk) 08:20, 15 August 2018 (EDT)
