Transformers Fans Carcass and GrungewerX (fellow TFW2005 board member and Radicon) have updated their blogs with a brand new interview they were able to score with Bob Budiansky, who wrote the original run of the Marvel comics, is responsible for the original Transformers Universe who's-who books as well as the bio updates published in some of the later issues. He named Megatron, the Dinobots, and many other classic characters (except Optimus Prime, that was a Denny O'Neil contribution). He wrote/rewrote the bios originally written by Denny O'Neil into the format we are familiar with (so he is responsible for the personalities of all the characters, especially the ones with a lot of page time in the early comics like Shockwave, Ratchet and Grimlock). He also created the Matrix, long before the Movie introduced it to the cartoons.

This interview gives a lot of insight into Bob's original thought process in writing the series. To read the interview and to discuss it, simply click the title of this article or you can click on the DISCUSS button below.
