- Ferak is a Decepticon in the Marvel comics portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Ferak is a Decepticon stationed near Darkmount. He has a low taste in entertainments, so he prefers to indulge on his own, taking out his sadistic impulses on others.
Ferak transforms into a hunter-seeker skyship, and he has been seen working in a team with two others.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Ferak and his two fellow Hunter-Seekers were cruising Dead End on orders to reduce the surplus population by blasting and then recycling the derelict Empties found there. Spotting three of them, Ferak warned his wingmen off so he could enjoy this sport on his own, taking leisurely potshots at the trio as they ran for their lives.
Ferak destroyed Telus and Rotorbolt before the noise of his play attracted the nearby electro-scrambler (wielded by some nameless Autobot). The electro-scrambler disrupted Ferak's guidance system, causing him to spin out of control. Blaster then grabbed him by the wings and threw him into a tower.
He exploded on impact. The Smelting Pool!
Notes
- The term "hunter-seeker skyship" was once thought to be the origin of the term "Seeker". But while it may have helped popularize the word, there is evidence that "Seeker" predates it.
- When Bob Budiansky was asked how to pronounce Ferak's name in an interview 23 1/2 years after his only appearance, Budiansky laughed, double-checked the spelling he'd used, and pronounced it "Fair-ACK".
