| The name or term "Divebomb" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Divebomb (disambiguation). |
- Divebomb is a Decepticon Predacon in the Generation 1 continuity family.
In the air, with targets arrayed below him like manna strewn from heaven, you wont find a robot happier than Divebomb. He's a cheery sort in general, almost always in a good mood, but nothing makes him downright giddy as a child on Christmas morning as having so many targets to pick and choose from that he doesn't know where to start destroying. Just about the only thing that ever puts him in a bad mood is having to give up his independence and combine with his teammates, whom he tolerates at best, to form Predaking. In his free time, Divebomb likes to use available scrap to build himself "mechanest" fortresses at the top of the highest available point. These plush private apartments are something of a point of pride for him. "I like to live comfortably," he explains with a smile.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
In the UK Generation 1 comics, writer Simon Furman portrays Divebomb as having a long standing rivalry with Dinobot Swoop. In fact, Swoop was originally named Divebomb, but after besting him, the Predacon said he was going to start calling himself Divebomb and hence stole the name. Though to Swoop their continuing fights are deadly serious, Divebomb seems to consider it all a rather fun ongoing game.
Animated continuity
- Voice actor: ? (US), Kenyu Horiuchi (Japan)
Divebomb debuted alongside the rest of the Predacons in the third season, and probably had the most screentime of everyone on the team. Besides forming Predaking's back, he didn't really do anything worth noting.
The dude looked cool though.
Dreamwave comics continuity
Timelines
After the end of the Great War, the Predacons (or those of them surviving) founded the new Predacon faction. Divebomb, long thought destroyed, contacted Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, and Ravage in secret and arranged for them to be rebuilt and join the faction. Though Ravage later left to serve the Tripredacus Council, Laserbeak and Buzzsaw remain loyal to Divebomb.
