- Geomotus is a Transformer from the 2019 IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Geomotus is a proficient geologist, able to observe patterns in Cybertron's metal that others do not notice. A neurodivergent individual, Geomotus is rarely seen without his "shapes"—handheld blocks that help him to focus his perception.
Fiction
2019 IDW continuity
- First appearance: Transformers issue #3
A neurodivergent Cybertronian, Geomotus had been treated by Froid in the past, and his knowledge relating to the geology of Cybertron meant that he was sometimes called on to work with Cybertron's Security Operations when the need arose—so long as Froid ensured that Geomotus limited his interactions with the notoriously abrasive Prowl.
When Chromia requested his assistance during the investigation into Brainstorm's murder, Geomotus joined her after first making a detour to Rubble's apartment to pick up Windblade. Rubble was initially offput by Geomotus's brusque demeanour before Windblade and Chromia explained Geomotus's condition, and the three eventually headed out to the badlands. The World In Your Eyes Part Three
While out in the wilderness, Geomotus reported to Chromia the surface material was unsuitable for tracks, making it unlikely they would pick up the killers trail. He did note an unusual pattern of microfissures, but couldn't immediately determine whether they were natural or the result of excavation. The three chanced across the reclusive hermit Cyclonus; suspecting that he might know something about Brainstorm's death, Chromia and Windblade were able to catch up to him and question him for information. Unable to pick up that Cyclonus was merely stalling, Geomotus was intrigued by his comments about recent geological events in the area. The World In Your Eyes Part Four
After learning members of the Rise had dug in underground at the memorial crater, Chromia called Geomotus. She asked him to elaborate on the microfissures he detected earlier. Geomotus confirmed that the fissures, if the results of excavation, were from MAJOR excavation, warning Chromia she might be facing a large force. The Cracks Beneath Your Feet Part Three
Geomotus and Landmine were out at the metal geysers trying to install monitoring equipment when Cybertron started having convulsions. The monitoring gear was destroyed, preceding the devastation at the immersant Titan. The Change In Your Nature Part Two
