| The name or term "Sideswipe" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Sideswipe (disambiguation). |
|
This article is about a character or concept that lacks a name, but has an official term or designation. |
- "Protoform Sideswipe" is a Transformer from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Much like his namesake, "Sideswipe" is red and impulsive. He at least has the excuse of his young age justifying the latter trait.
Fiction
IDW Generation 1 continuity
Sideswipe's spark was part of the first post-war generation birthed from the Alyon hot spot, Redemption before the sparks were absorbed by the Titan Trypticon to grow properly. Salvation
Some time later, some protoforms had begun to form, Sideswipe among them. When Arcee trailed Sludge, Sideswipe jumped the former from behind only to be quickly overpowered. The perceived threat to his life caused Trypticon to stir. Once the surface situation had calmed down, Arcee introduced Sideswipe to Optimus Prime and affectionately named him after her recently-departed friend. The Dead Come Home, Part 2
When telling Aileron about the protoforms, Arcee reflected that Sideswipe's name was not reflective of the desire to step away from future fighting. Surfeit of Primes
Notes
- "Sideswipe" possesses a black-and-red color scheme and is part of a "new generation" of Transformers, which seems like a sneaky reference to Sideswipe's Generation 2 toy.
