Lightspeed is an Autobot Technobot from the Generation 1 continuity family.
I'm not the man they think I am at home. Oh no no, I'm a Rocket man!

Looking in from the outside, you'd think Lightspeed had it all: He's highly intelligent, strong, fast, and considered dashingly good-looking by Transformers standards. And if any of that mattered to him at all, he'd be golden. Sadly, Lightspeed aches down to the core of his being for something more. His heart yearns to escape the bonds of gravity and fly free. Dreams of soaring between the stars and exploring the vast mysteries of space consume him, making him feel slow, trapped, and dissatisfied with what others would see as a charmed existence. Lightspeed would gladly pursue his dream of being rebuilt as an interstellar spacecraft if the Autobots' situation wasn't so grim. As it is, he knows the necessary resources are more valuable elsewhere and so puts his energy into winning the war and making his dream a possibility. His dreams tend to distract him from his current function as a data processor. He combines with his fellow Technobots to form Computron.

Lightspeed is allergic to energon (and most other fuels to a lesser extent) and must take a special lead sulfide additive when fueling or he experiences severe engine knocking and a bad rust rash.

Daydreaming, Strafe. Or maybe I should say stardreaming. I've been waiting for this chance to explore space, but since leaving Cybertron, the only stars I've seen are in the sky over Autobot City. The stars, the planets, the thousand moons... like jewels in an alien crown.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:Lightspeed waxes poetical"Money Is Everything"|Lightspeed waxes poetical{{#if:"Money Is Everything"|, "Money Is Everything"|}}|}}

Marvel Comics continuity

[edit]
Events from the UK-only comic stories are in italics.

Lightspeed and his fellow Technobots were part of Fortress Maximus's crew on the Steelhaven. When Fortress Maximus decided to leave the war on Cybertron and head to Nebulos, Lightspeed and the other Technobots agreed to follow him on his quest for peace. Ring of Hate! However, the Decepticons followed the Autobots to Nebulos and brought the war with them. Broken Glass!

In the Nebulos resort city of Splendora, Lightspeed and the Technobots fought Abominus as the combined Computron. Though Abominus was defeated and routed, Splendora lay in ruins. Love and Steel! The Autobots and Decepticons ultimately left Nebulos for Earth.

After Starscream was mutated by his short exposure to the Underbase, he obliterated all of the Technobots, including Lightspeed, in Buenos Aires. Dark Star

Marvel UK future timelines

[edit]

In the year 2510, Lightspeed and the Technobots had apparently fallen into a close alliance with Ultra Magnus. When Rodimus Prime announced the last Decepticon was dead and the war was therefore over, the Technobots attended the meeting at Magnus's side. Unfortunately, so did a Decepticon deep-cover operative named Triton. When Rodimus Prime decided to step down as Autobot leader and named Springer as his intended replacement, Triton saw his chance for treachery. He jumped into the conversation, saying Ultra Magnus was a far better choice to carry the Matrix—he had done so in the past and was more of a statesman than a warrior like Springer, and so better suited to lead in peacetime. Lightspeed quickly responded to Triton's logic, and the room divided between Technobots and Wreckers. After Scattershot killed the Wrecker named Roadbuster and Sandstorm killed Triton in turn, war tragically broke out again on Cybertron. Peace

Lightspeed was created along with the other Technobots by Grimlock when the latter gained super intelligence. Viewing Afterburner's excited mannerisms, he advised Afterburner to "mellow out". Good luck with that, Lightspeed. Grimlock's New Brain

In 2007, Lightspeed and the Technobots arrived at Mark Morgan's laboratory to stop the Terrorcons from stealing Morgan's heat-and-radiation-resistant alloy. Unfortunately the subsequent battle between Computron and Abominus caused much damage to Morgan's lab, injuring his daughter and leading to the Hate Plague crisis. The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1 Shortly after Optimus Prime's return, Lightspeed was briefly involved with the battle for Autobot City that inadvertently led to the discovery of Nebulos. Lightspeed was hypnotized by Mindwipe into backing over a cliff, and he shook his head dazedly after he hit the ground. The Rebirth, Part 1

The Great Transformer War manga

[edit]

Lightspeed and his Technobot comrades were under construction at Metroplex when the Autobots sought the aid of Doctor Dalton in improving their abilities. The Great Transformer War issue 1 Dalton heavily upgraded the Technobots' weaponry, allowing the combined Computron to easily outmatch the Decepticon combiner, Abominus. As the Decepticon motto goes, however: When in doubt, cheat. Galvatron outfitted the Terrorcons with "control liquid", a substance that enabled them to assume control over Computron. Dalton arranged for Spike Witwicky to use a special exo-suit to approach Computron safely and administer an antidote. The Great Transformer War issue 2

The Headmasters cartoon

[edit]
Voice actor: Masashi Ebara (Japanese)

In 2011, Galvatron staged a major attack on Cybertron. Lightspeed and the Technobots joined the Dinobots on the front lines of defense. Four Warriors Come out of the Sky As Hot Rod began his search for the Matrix of Leadership on Earth, Ultra Magnus gathered Lightspeed and the Technobots to prevent the Decepticons from hampering his quest. When Hot Rod finally located the Matrix, Galvatron confronted him with the Decepticon Headmasters and Terrorcons, but the Technobots arrived to help even the odds. Scattershot ordered them to form Computron, and the mighty giant occupied the Decepticons so that Hot Rod could make a break for the space bridge. Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime

Later, Galvatron launched Metamorpho, a gravity-twisting meteorite, and the Aerialbots were its first victims. Lightspeed and the Technobots were sent out to recover their damaged comrades for repairs, but they were intercepted by the Terrorcons. The fighting escalated with new arrivals on both sides, as the Decepticons tried to keep their foes occupied until the meteorite reached Athenia, destroying the Autobots completely. The Battleship Maximus eventually arrived to carry the Headmasters into space to confront the meteorite, and so Lightspeed and the Technobots formed Computron and covered their retreat. Approach of the Demon Meteorite

When a giant carnivorous plant took root in San Francisco, Ultra Magnus sent Lightspeed and the Technobots to deal with the incident. The plant proved to be extraordinarily resilient, however, and it was also guarded by the Decepticons. The Technobots were distracted by combat with the Stunticons, first as individuals and later combined as Computron and Menasor. Head On!! Fortress Maximus
