Circuit Smasher (DW)

"The only GOOD robot is a DEAD robot!"

Spike Witwicky was a scientist who worked for G.B. Blackrock. He designed, among other things, an advanced oil rig, complete with defensive systems. When Shockwave and a Decepticon force attempted to take over the rig, he personally oversaw the counterattack. During the fight, he launched a harpoon at Shockwave, which managed to embed itself in his armor. Shockwave, in gun mode, pulled away, ripping off a large portion of the rig that was attached to the harpoon cable. Shockwave then tossed it back at the rig, and the ensuing electrical surge paralyzed Witwicky from the neck down, except for some movement in his right hand. After this incident, Witwicky created a bodysuit capable of storing and channeling enormous amounts of electrical energy. Also part of the suit was the ability to attract and repel metal, even to the point of being able to fly using ferrous materials in the ground. In addition, the suit enabled Witwicky to manipulate electricity in nearby machinery, even going so far as to let him control computers remotely. Finally, the suit replaced his damaged nervous system, giving him the ability to move about even more nimbly than before. Now calling himself CIRCUIT SMASHER, Witwicky set out on a mission of revenge against all Transformers who would hurt him or any other human.

Canonical/Pre-MUX/Theme History:
The Autobots' desperate attempt to launch the Ark ended in failure, and the majority of Iacon's inhabitants are permanently off-lined. Megatron reigns supreme over Cybertron, as well as many other worlds conquered by the Decepticons, now truly an Empire. The few survivors of the Ark Massacre live beneath the surface of the planet, determined to survive no matter the cost.

Optimus Prime is dead, killed by Megatron with his bare hands, and the Autobots are in hiding, literally underground. Bumblebee leads a ragtag group of survivors, preparing a last desperate surprise strike against the Decepticons.

On Earth, few dare oppose Decepticon rule. Circuit Smasher is one of them.
