Shockwave is one of the main antagonists of the IDW's Transformers comics. Originally a simple Senator in the Cybertronian Council he was arrested due to his opposition to certain ideas from the Primes and turned into a killing machine obsessed with preserving Cybertron itself, leading him to conclude that all life in the universe had to be consumed to serve the Planet's need. He was later stopped thanks to the efforts of his old friend Optimus Prime and the Decepticon leader Megatron, who made him remember who he used to be and then allowed his foes to kill him.
Shockwave had actually survived his apparent demise by accidentally time traveling to the past. He murdered the ancient Prime, Onyx, and took his place impersonating him. Shaping the history of Cybertron as he saw fit in order to allow the original events to take place and secure his own journey. After revealing himself again shortly before the fight against Unicron he was finally defeated by Optimus and Bumblebee.
