Who is Onslaught?

Onslaught is a Decepticon Combaticon from Marvel's Transformers comics, serving as the commanding leader of his team. He forms the torso and core of the combined giant Bruticus when the Combaticons merge together.

Debuting in Marvel's The Transformers Universe #2 in 1987, Onslaught arrived at the dawn of the Copper Age and has remained a fixture in Transformers comics lore ever since β€” a remarkable span stretching nearly four decades to 2025. This is a character who keeps genuinely formidable company, sharing pages with the likes of Blast Off, Vortex, Brawl, Swindle, and Optimus Prime himself across titles including The Transformers and the Transformers Compendium. For collectors drawn to the rich, sprawling mythology of Marvel's Transformers universe, Onslaught represents one of those satisfying deep-catalog figures whose presence signals that a book means serious business.
