Longtooth's comrade

Clockwise is an Autobot from the Marvel portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Clockwise is hardy, which makes a good match for a clingy teammate.

Fiction

Marvel The Transformers comics

Longtooth's comrade appeared exclusively in the UK portion of the Marvel Comics continuity.

In a great Decepticon offensive on the Autobots, Longtooth was among the few survivors and held on to Clockwise, begging him to not die so that he wouldn't be alone. An observing Optimus Prime, misunderstanding Longtooth's words for that of altruism, gave Longtooth a piece of the Creation Matrix so that Clockwise would be healed.

However it turned out that Clockwise healed just fine on his own, anyway, and Longtooth kept the Matrix piece all to himself. Whose Lifeforce Is It Anyway?
