Now that might change as I have only read the IDW Phases 2 and 3 hardback collections completely( my library doesn't have any of phase 1) and as such missed the last several issues of the series. But at least in Phases 2 and 3, starscream chose leadership over his fellow decepticons, and then committed murder and framed several bots just to keep his position.

    I honestly think if Soundwave somehow became a prime after stealing the matrix, that would make for a very interesting and somewhat intense story for him. Mainly because the matrix, at least in the aligned continuity, was something Megatron thought he deserved himself. So to see that his most loyal decepticon is worthy and might have goodness in him after all would surely send him over the edge some kinda way, all while Soundwave slowly but surely realizes his mistake joining the Cons and works to end the war

Megatron’s a fascist, warmongering dictator, who has attempted genocide in a few continuities, Starscream is typically a Traitorous backstabber who will do anything for power, Shockwave is completely amoral, and has a mountain’s worth of unethical experiments to his name. Soundwave is comparatively far less horrible

    • @LaenayaSathe
      @LaenayaSathe 2 місяці тому +5

      I subscribe to this idea too. The other headcanon I have is that he loves Megatron. Not romantically, but perhaps an echo of how Orion Pax saw him. While Orion Pax would come to see him as the enemy, Soundwave may not have ever let go even though he doesn't always agree morally with Megatron's leadership. Thus his loyalty is truly out of unconditional love, but it's been twisted into a toxic dedication to Megatron by the war, perhaps manipulation by Megatron himself, probably trauma, exhaustion, depression, and perhaps a level of apathy where all that matters is that loyalty that defines him. These days I tend to see Shockwave as the one who's so precisely morally grey and coldly logically dedicated to his own goals.

  • @SandwitchZebra
    @SandwitchZebra 2 місяці тому +11

    I’ve always preferred it when the animal cassettes are sentient, it adds more depth to Soundwave that he’s a genuinely good leader and friend to all of them, to the point where they mourn him when he dies. It gives Soundwave a hint of compassion and sympathy, a hint that maybe he’s more than the stoic loyalist he seems to be.

    In parts of the script of the original Transformers movie that didn't make the final cut due to time and monetary constraints, Soundwave is very much opposed to tossing Megatron out of Astrotrain, but his cry is ignored by the others as the majority agree to throw out the injured Decepticons.
    Soundwave would then have staked his claim at Decepticon leadership immediately afterward for the express purpose of turning Astrotrain around and going back for Megatron. He loses the ensuing brawl to Starscream, and the rest is history.

    He was a fladiator that rivaled Megatron in the pits. He "fought" Arcee using ONLY a ground brisge. He beat the brakes off of Airachnid. He once hunted down Ratchet and Wheeljack for Lazerbeak, and I remember them thinking he could kill them. And because he didn't speak in the show, him saying "Soudeave superior, Autobots inferior" was the coolest thing that happened. And when he returned in RID (2015), it was understandable why Bumblebee lost his mind.

    I watched Tf one and have been trying to get into transformers and I got hooked on Soundwave. It’s kinda weird hearing how much Soundwave and Shockwave seem to hate each other in so many continuities because they seemed to be close in TF one. They gave off a sort of “Do not separate them” vibe to me cause they’re together in every scene they’re in
    This video also solidified how much I like him, he’s just incredibly loyal and genuinely wants equality

    Seems people forgot that pretty much throughout all canons, he plays both sides to his advantage. The first example of this is when he tries to take power over the Decepticons in the first movie after voting to throw out Megatron.
    Also, I love that in Prime Soundwave could only be dealt with by banishing him to the shadow realm.

    • @nicholasfarrell5981
      @nicholasfarrell5981 9 місяців тому +2

      I'm going to assume that the Decepticon command structure was similar to He-Man's Evil Warriors, where there's a nominal second-in-command (presumably Starscream) but really any ambitious lackey can operate in that role as needed. That, and elevating Soundwave to #2 proper could have motivated Soundwave to be less loyal if he's just one assassination away from being in charge.

    • @yamatohime2035
      @yamatohime2035 9 місяців тому +3

      In many continiuties Starscream is second-in-command and Air-Force Commander. Soundwave is communication officer and seems to have a role of adjutant of Megatron. Soundwave usually extremely loyal to Megatron, they are even described as old friends from before the Great War from time to time.

    I always tell my friends Soundwave is my favorite transformers character because while he is a bad guy, he’s not really a bad guy, he’s just loyal to the Decepticon cause and Megatron, while Starscream may have the title of Megatrons right hand man that’s just because Megatron wants to keep a close eye on him, Soundwave is Megatrons real right hand man.
