Broadside

Broadside rolled onto the scene in 1993 when writer Simon Furman and artist Derek Yaniger launched Transformers: Generation 2 #1 at Marvel, planting this character firmly in the Copper/Modern Age revival that brought the legendary robots-in-disguise saga roaring back to life. With a catalog presence stretching all the way to 2025, Broadside has proven a quietly enduring part of the Transformers tapestry, appearing alongside titans like Optimus Prime, Megatron, and the Dinobots Slag, Snarl, and Swoop — serious company by any measure. Most of their page time is concentrated in Transformers: Generation 2 and the Transformers Compendium, making those the essential reads for anyone looking to track this character down. A niche find for the dedicated collector, Broadside is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes hunting through Transformers continuity so rewarding.
