| The name or term "Highbrow" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Highbrow (disambiguation). |
- Highbrow is an Autobot from the Animated continuity family.
Highbrow used to be the head of Cybertron Intelligence, and as such, worked on many a secret Autobot project. Wonder where he is these days?
Fiction
Animated cartoon
- Voice actor: David Kaye (English), Atsushi Imaruoka (Japanese)
Millions of years ago, Highbrow and Mainframe worked on the comatose Arcee, trying to recall the sensitive data she had been carrying that was feared lost after her unfortunate encounter with Lockdown. When they called in Ratchet to help, the medic triggered a hidden failsafe that transferred the data to his memory banks. Realizing what had occurred, Highbrow led Ratchet and Ultra Magnus to the room containing Project Omega, explaining that the retrieved data was the final step in completing the Autobots' newest weapon, Omega Supreme. TransWarped
Highbrow mysteriously vanished without a trace after the Great War. In his absence, his post was filled by Longarm Prime. How convenient! The AllSpark Almanac II
Notes
- Highbrow appears to be patterned after British actor Terry-Thomas. He is mustachioed, he shares the actor's distinctive gap between his front teeth, and he's jolly well got a delightful caddish British accent, eh wot?
- It is possible that Highbrow was killed by Shockwave in order for him to get the job of Head of Cybertron Intelligence. If so, then add him to the list of "Autobots Shockwave mercilessly killed"! In fact, the second AllSpark Almanac all-but confirms that this is what befell Highbrow.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Highbrow (ハイブロウ Haiburō)
