But not because he has to win, because he feels so strongly that the autobots win, he's willing to do anything.
It's becoming more obvious that prowl isn't really that bad, and most of the other guys that treat him as such ignore that they basically signed up for 90% of what he does, they just don't like to think about it
though the current arc seems to imply that at one point he committed a false flag attack, regretted it, and that perhaps the rest of his plans have been to try and make up for the lives lost.
At any rate, boy oh boy what I wouldn't give for a beefy prowl. Not necessarily IDW style, just something more commando-ish. We won't get one, since none of the current lineup has anything remotely resembling a chest like his.
