The Sad & Disturbing Origin Behind Shockwave’s Eye and Personality. The character of Shockwave tends to be similar across the different continuities of Transformers. Where he’s depicted as this faceless robot devoid of empathy or emotions. Leading many fans to question if he was always this way? And if not then why and when did this start. Well according to the G1 IDW comics Shockwave wasn’t always the cold and sadistic Decepticon. He was once a respectable Senator. He believed in making things better for less fortunate Cybertronians. While those around him pursued power and politics and other petty concerns, he focused on defeating entropy and securing the future of his species. Oftentimes going against the law to accomplish his goal. Which infuriated the rest of the Senate. They would punish him by ripping away his energetic personality. They would also mutilate his body by removing his head in exchange for an expressionless face. And swap out his hands with clamps. Leaving him with only his logic and drive to preserve even if it meant killing and torturing others.
