You can't see me!


{{#ifeq: ||}} This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.

Clockwise is a mysterious Autobot. All that is known about him is that he has a finger and a head.

Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

Condor-Verlag Transformers Comic-Magazin

Clockwise reported on the Decepticons bringing a hundred-meter long pipeline into position, and wondered why the Decepticons would build the largest laser cannon in the universe, since firing it at any location on Earth would be as dangerous to the Decepticons as to the Autobots. He taps his head with his finger whilst saying this. Shockwave's Galactic Secret


Notes

  • Clockwise appears for a paragraph in a German text story, and then is never seen again.
  • Clockwise reports on Decepticon activity, so it can be presumed he has a role on monitor duty.
  • Who is Clockwise? The next paragraph talks about the Rescue Force, though it seems that they are responding to him rather than he being a member of the Rescue Force. It is likely (though conjecture) that writer Robert Mann became confused by a reference picture of various Transformers with the legend "Clockwise from left to right..." and decided that the name of the first character was "Clockwise", especially since his name is "Clockwise" in the original text rather than the German translation.
