Atomizer is an Autobot from the 2005 IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Ultra Magnus may see everyone as a troublemaker, but sometimes he has a reason.

Atomizer is a former interior designer turned weapons engineer and assassin. Formerly stationed at the Kimia Facility as part of Brainstorm's team, where he fancied himself a bit of a writing critic, he joined the Lost Light's quest for the Knights of Cybertron. Atomizer favors archery-style weapons and is rarely without some kind of shaft-launcher.
