>>7444053I think this is part of the problem.
She has two characterizations, a wandering warrior who is drug into plots at random and gets to be on a firstname basis with every character despite not really having enough backstory to make it plausible (saying she fought and defeated Trypticon and just have that be her thing would help), or she’s a politician in the postwar Cybertron who functions as “the Titan expert” as well as the Id to Starscream’s Ego and Bumblebee’s Super-Ego.
I really like the latter, but nothing has done it other than IDW.
Otherwise we get the Transformers Meets Star Trek version where she’s apparently like the characters who showed up without explanation but weren’t on the Ark, like Cosmos and Seaspray.
She’s getting a figure in Siege, so hopefully its not only decent but also gives her a bit of backstory through the new IDW comic that gives her a role that fits into the civil war AND sticks.
