Who is Throttle?

Throttle roared onto the scene in 1988, a Copper Age creation born from the collaborative spark of Bob Budiansky, José Delbo, and Dave Hunt in the pages of Marvel's landmark The Transformers series. Sharing adventures alongside heavy hitters like Optimus Prime, Soundwave, Dreadwind, and Darkwing, this character has carved out a place in the sprawling Transformers mythos that has endured across an impressive stretch from 1988 all the way to 2025. With appearances collected in Transformers Compendium, Throttle may not be the most prolific name on the roster, but for dedicated fans and completists, that rarity is precisely the appeal — a genuine piece of Marvel's Transformers legacy waiting to be discovered.
