Who is Smokescreen?

Smokescreen is an Autobot warrior from Cybertron who joins the Transformers' ongoing battle against the Decepticons on Earth. Like his namesake, he specializes in confusion and misdirection tactics, using smoke-based abilities to obscure enemies and protect his allies.

Smokescreen rolled onto the scene in 1986, debuting in The Transformers #14 in a Marvel universe shaped by the creative hands of Bob Budiansky and Don Perlin β€” and what a neighborhood to land in, sharing pages with heavy hitters like Ratchet, Jetfire, and Wheeljack. A Copper Age arrival in one of Marvel's most beloved licensed epics, Smokescreen has quietly endured across an impressive nearly four decades of Transformers publishing history. Collectors hunting completionist runs will find them woven through The Transformers, The Transformers Universe, and the Transformers Compendium β€” a modest but genuine corner of a mythology that has captivated readers since the very beginning.
