Who is Getaway?

Getaway is an Autobot warrior who joined the Transformers roster during Marvel's original comic run, fighting alongside legendary figures such as Optimus Prime and Grimlock against the Decepticons.

Getaway rolled onto the scene in 1988's The Transformers #41, a Bob Budiansky and José Delbo creation arriving during the Copper Age of one of Marvel's most beloved licensed universes. Sharing pages with titans like Optimus Prime, Grimlock, Megatron, and Hot Rod, this Autobot has kept genuinely iconic company across a publishing history that stretches a remarkable 37 years — from the original Marvel run through Regeneration One and beyond. With appearances collected in the Transformers Compendium, Getaway is a character whose longevity speaks to the enduring richness of the Transformers mythos, a rewarding discovery for any fan digging deeper than the headliners.
