Freewheeler

Freewheeler rolled onto the scene in 1989, debuting in the pages of Marvel's The Transformers #54 under the watchful eyes of writer Bob Budiansky and artist José Delbo — right in the thick of the Copper Age, when the Transformers saga was charging toward its dramatic conclusion. With only a handful of catalog appearances to their name, Freewheeler is a rare find, the kind of deep-cut character that collectors love to track down. What a roster to share the page with, though — Megatron, Optimus Prime, Scorponok, and Bumblebee are among the titans keeping this character company, making those issues electric reading. Preserved in the Transformers Compendium, Freewheeler endures as a satisfying piece of Marvel's rich Transformers universe for anyone who loves hunting the edges of the mythology.
