Bombasticon

The Bombasticons are a video game faction from the Marvel portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

The evil Bombasticons of Hyper-Fax basically exist to get murdered by Optimus Prime and his Mechabots. Good thing video game characters aren't real.

Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

Marvel The Transformers comics

Ethan Zachary created the world of Hyper-Fax, Mechabots, and Bombasticons for his digital copy of Optimus Prime's mind, intending to teach Prime of his previous life as commander of the Autobots and as an autonomous living being. Though Prime led the Mechabots to victory, he still believed he was nothing more than a video game character. Pretender to the Throne!
