Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

"Spike" is one of Butch Witwicky's nicknames. He was one of Major Sparkplug's sons (who called him "Buster") and the two were estranged. His escapades would have hurt his career if his dad hadn't secretly used his influence to stop it. Years later, when he joined NEST, his dad transferred over to patch things up with him.Ask Vector Prime

Notes

• Clearly Spike shares a rather uncommon last name with Sam Witwicky and his family. As his father is Ron Witwicky's brother, Spike and Sam would be first cousins.
• Backfire and Bumblebee were partnered with Sam Witwicky in the Autobot Daredevil Squad exclusive multi-pack. Make of that what you will.
• Coincidentally, Sam was credited as Sam "Spike" Witwicky in the Latin American Spanish dub of Transformers. Yeah, that's not helping at all.
