First Aid

First Aid is an Autobot and the dedicated medic of the Protectobots, a Transformer whose compassionate nature and commitment to healing make him reluctant to fight. He combines with his teammates to form the giant Defensor.

Few characters announce themselves quite like First Aid, who made their comics debut in Marvel's The Transformers Universe #1 in 1986 — a reference-book launch that immediately signaled this was a character worth cataloguing. Emerging at the dawn of the Copper Age, First Aid has kept remarkable company across nearly four decades of Transformers publishing, sharing pages with the likes of Hotspot, Blades, Blaster, and Wheeljack. With appearances spanning from 1986 all the way to 2025 across The Transformers and the Transformers Compendium, this is a character whose presence in the mythology has proven quietly enduring — a testament to the deep bench that makes Transformers comics so endlessly rewarding to explore.
