- Dr. Jones is a human character from the Energon portion of the Unicron Trilogy.

Dr. Brian Jones is humanity's foremost expert on Energon. He has a brilliant mind and his research may solve the energy crisis facing not only Earth, but Cybertron as well.
Dr. Jones and his wife, Miranda Jones, are the parents of Chad (aka "Kicker") and Sally Jones. He laughs at inappropriate times. Actually, he has some other inappropriate personal quirks to boot. He sometimes views Kicker as more of a tool than as his son, but shows some concern for him at important times. Dr. Jones is exceedingly eccentric.
Fiction
Animated continuity
Energon
Voice actor: Ron Halder (US), Jin Yamanoi (Japan)

Dr. Jones was a crackpot human scientist stationed (initially) on Cybertron. He has rather ambigious morals with regards to how he treats his son Kicker, who resents him. Frankly, if you named your son Kicker, he'd hate you, too.
When Dr. Jones discovered Kicker's gift, he dragged his young son from world to world, wherever he expected to find energon deposits. Coupled with his traumatic trip to Cybertron, Kicker came to resent his father, though the elder Jones did upon occassion show concern and love for his son.
Dr. Jones later developed the Energon Tower, a series of defensive spires feeding off energon deposits on Earth, that can generate a powerful, all-encompassing Energon field grid, one that can destroy Terrorcon drones and severely damage Decepticons. A variant of this defensive weapon was later installed aboard his pride and joy, the Miranda II.

Unfortunately, his invention was later perverted to use by the Decepticons when they managed to capture Cybertron, and refitted the towers defending the planet to output toxic Energon gas that was highly damaging to Autobots and Autobot technology. This served as the Decepticon's main defense for much of the war.
Dreamwave comics continuity
Energon

Dr. Jones was a special consultant for Alterenergy, an alternative fuel company located in Western Australia. When Terrorcons raided Earth in search of Energon, they targeted his son Kicker, who could detect Energon with his mind. He sent one of his employees, Rad, to rescue him.
However, Kicker was instead scooped up by one of the protesters outside the Alterenergy mobile command center. Rad then fumbled the rescue and Kicker was kidnapped by the Terrorcons. After the Autobots arrived, Dr. Jones had them bring Kicker a battle suit to wear so that he would be protected.
