First appearing in the Fun Publications Transformers: Timelines Issue 3 in 2008, Shattered Glass Soundwave is the communications expert of the Heroic Decepticons. More fun loving and light hearted than his main universe counterpart, Soundwave would work alongside his cassette corps to intercept Autobot transmissions and fight for the good of the universe. While Soundwave may excel in espionage, he’s also handled his own in battle, facing off with Ultra Magnus’ army of Junkions until being overrun as they attempted to destroy the Classic Universes’ Earth.
In the IDW Continuity, Soundwave would be the Decepticons Morale Officer. Originally a new anchor on the Autobot News Network, he’d accompany Megatron in battle as the war waged on Earth, fighting for peace on Cybertron. But when the Decepticons were defeated, he’d return to Cybertron, hiding in Gold City until being tasked with reconnecting the Decepticons scattered across the planet for an assault on Goldbug’s Stronghold. Now back in action, Soundwave would join the fight to stop Metroplex. In this battle, he’d be responsible for offlining both Rodimus and Drift, freeing Jetfire from capture, and saving Starscream’s spark from fusing with Metroplex. But his Ultimate Test would be Ultra Magnus now in Optimus Prime’s body, with the aid of Shattered Glass Wheeljack, they’d stop the madman.
No matter the universe, he challenges our perception of the iconic villain and makes us ask Who is Soundwave of Transformers Shattered Glass?
