Wings Universe
The first broadcasts of Around Cybertron were bumpy ones, as Bishop and Spearhead dealt with recalcitrant technology. Around Cybertron #9
In response to the recent bug infestation that Cybertron was experiencing, Bishop interviewed Repugnus in a documentary on the situation—only to find out to his disgruntlement that Repugnus was not, in fact, an expert entomologist after all. Around Cybertron #10 Bishop presented "Doc", who had some new drones to demonstrate. Bishop raised the question of drones being notoriously difficult to control, and was proved right a few moments later when the Centurion droids attacked attacked Doc's assistant, Centrifuge. Around Cybertron #12
Bishop reported that the Decepticons had attacked Iacon and that Cassiopeia was nearing the scene. Once she arrived, she would only tell Bishop that she wanted to go home now. Around Cybertron #13 Bishop reported with exaggerated horror the destruction wrought during the war. His acting complete, he inquired if Spearhead was going to a party later, and was informed that they were still live and broadcasting. Around Cybertron #14 He later got painted up to look like Alpha Trion so that Rook could "interview" him. He lacked confidence in their ability to pull off the deception, though Rook assured him the resemblance was uncanny. Around Cybertron #16 The interview was convincing enough to win ABN the Running Cogs Award for Captivating Journalism, though Rook was too busy hugging the trophy to let Bishop hold it. Around Cybertron #17
During Andromeda's first show, she accidentally hit Bishop in the head during a segment on Lobbing. He was conscious enough to appear on-camera as Rook signed the show off for the night. Around Cybertron #18
Notes
- Bishop transforms into an "Expedition Coupe", though in his younger days he called it a "Quad-Exhaust, Turbo-Charged Hyper-Cruiser".[1]
- Bishop is Rook's mentor. Feel free to groan at the pun.
