First post to this site and it's about my favorite character of the year 2025 going on 2026. Crazy.
Anyway this is a post about Impactor; a character I am deeply infatuated with and have been left only crumbs to feed on. I'll be going through the continuities he's most involved in and go into high detail about his story in IDW1 specifically.
Impactor is a character from the Transformers franchise, originally showcased in the Marvel UK comics, subsequently followed by the IDW1 (2005) continuity and War for Cybertron: Siege. He is (if unfortunately) in very few media within Transformers, and I think that's disappointing. Especially considering his complicated and compelling character and all he's been through within this franchise.
