The Universe of the Transformers is vast, and populated by many characters. Their universe is a large tapestry, made up of the stories and points of view of countless experiences that serve the larger whole.

These are some of those stories. This is:

Thundercracker is like the most awesome transformer ever.
my favorite story so far.
Why's that guy look familiar.

He looks a bit like Stoker, a.k.a. Rogue-1, from the Infiltration arc (the person who infiltrated the Decepticons command bunker and recorded images on the SM-40 that Verity subsequently stole), except he doesn't have a moustache. It can't be him, though, because he's in a derelict house and not a crashed bus.

Now that's a good Thundercracker story!

One of my favorite All-Spark pieces. Definitenly a classic in both art and story in my opinion.

That, plus Thundercracker's an F-15 instead of an F-22 and that, given the context of the story, Prowl's just about the last person you'd expect to find on the scene.

Good one. 'Cracker's got an issue with willpower.

Perfect.

Excellent. We need more like this. It's great that they're grappling with the humanity forming inside of them.

Ah, such good stuff.

People, you rawk.

Another thought-provoking one, I like it.

Interesting contrasts here. Most Autobots seem to follow Optimus because they respect him, but Thundercracker only follows Megatron because he's afraid of him. It's also an interesting posit that Decepticons do have their own sense of morality; just that, like most of the 'Con outlook, it's a brutal and harsh one.

That adds so much to Thundercracker's character!

Front Paged and Credited!

Excellent backstory on this classic character. The art is well done too.

And I third it! The Mosaics seem to make TC look kind of like Armada Starscream and Dinobot in that he could defcet.

This is probably the first Mosaic story that I actually shed a tear for... Moving.

If they keep up this rate, they can create a Spotlight: Thundercracker just by bundling all the Mosaics about him. (Not that I'm complaning, mind you... it's nice to see the Seekers get some characterization love.)

Awesome. G1 Thundercracker was my first seeker and my favorite, due to his bio. This Mosaic compliments his personality very nicely. Kris Carter - FTW!

This ties with Hound's Mosaic for the best character moment I've seen so far. Thundercracker isn't portrayed as cruel, evil, or malicious by nature, yet his fear has led him to a place where murder is the only manner of compassion he has left. Top stuff.

My fave so far, definitely.

thats new i didnt think thundercraker was scared of megatron...
