'''Johnny''' is a young member of [[S.T.A.R.S.|S.T.A.R.S.]] Beware: if you're a [[Decepticon|Decepticon]] who wants to drain the power from a town, be sure it isn't ''Johnny's'' town. He'll bring the [[Autobot|Autobots]] down on you hard, fool.
'''Johnny''' is a Caucasian male in his early teens and (unbeknownst to his family) member of the [[S.T.A.R.S.|Secret Transformer Autobot Rescue Squad]]. When a sudden power outage caused Johnny to suspect Decepticon activity, he rushed to his rooftop observatory, where he saw a ''strange light'' rising up to meet [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]], who then circled looking for a landing zone.

Johnny alerted his S.T.A.R.S. allies using the Communication Center at his desk.
Johnny was the focus of two [[S.T.A.R.S. continuity|S.T.A.R.S. recruitment messages]] sent by the Autobots to human allies. The messages told his story: Johnny was at home one night when the power mysteriously went out, and he immediately raced to his rooftop telescope, ignoring his parents calling out for him. He spied a strange light rising to the sky to meet a jet whom he recognized as [[Thundercracker (G1)|Thundercracker]]. He knew what to do: activate his S.T.A.R.S. [[Control Center|Control Center]] and alert the Autobots. Then sure enough, [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]], [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]], [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]], and the [[Omnibot|Omnibots]] converged from multiple locations in response to his signal. {{storylink|Have the Decepticons defeated us once and for all?|Have the Decepticons defeated us once and for all?}}
But as he was about to issue orders, his Control Center went dead and the walls began to shake. Fearful moments passed as he jabbed at the console ineffectually. Then it suddenly reactivated, displaying only the words "CODE RED". The Autobot dispatch stated that Johnny's only hope would be for a new S.T.A.R.S. member (specifically, ''you'') to step in and, presumably, continue the Autobot co-ordination efforts. {{storylink|Can one boy, alone, hold back the evil Decepticons?|Can one boy, alone, hold back the evil Decepticons?}}
Sunstreaker, Ratchet, Mirage and the Omnibots converged from multiple locations in response to his signal. Johnny was personally familiar with Sunstreaker and Ratchet already.
The S.T.A.R.S. messages dropped his story there, and his fate was left untold. It can be safely assumed that if you didn't join S.T.A.R.S. and assist, he was killed and it was ''your fault'', you lazy prick.
''Johnny appeared in a 1985 mail-order catalogue which offered Thundercracker, the Omnibots, Ratchet, Mirage and Wheeljack.''
