- Sky Lynx is an evil Autobot from the Shattered Glass continuity family.
Humble and self-deprecating, Sky Lynx feels eternal shame. He was once Lieutenant Commander of Optimus Prime's grand and sinister Autobot army, but after suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of Wheelie, he tendered his resignation. After a bitter exile which he himself enforced, he was courted by Alpha Trion's cult. In the service of the Old One's agents, he dares to hope of finding redemption.
Sky Lynx's space shuttle form is able to split into two bestial components: the shuttle portion transforms into a winged cat mode, and the shuttle's cargo underbelly transforms into a reptile form. Each half can be operated independently. Curiously, due to the subspace generators installed within, the interior of his combined shuttle mode is three times the volume of his exterior.
He is prone to fly into anxiety attacks whenever he hears poetry, music, or any kind of rhyming speech.
