Prowl was part of the crew of theArk,the Autobot starship that left Cybertron looking for alternate sources of energy. While enroute he monitored theViewtrexand detected the Decepticons pursuing them. The Decepticons boarded and the ensuing conflict caused the Ark to crashland onEarth.Four million years later, the Transformers were reawakened by the eruption of the volcano the Ark had crashed in and reformatted byTeletraan I.Prowl was reformatted as a Datsun 280Z police car. When the Autobots first fought the Decepticons on Earth, aboard an oceanic oil refinery, Prowl teamed withJazzin shooting up the Decepticons' supply ofenergon cubes.More than Meets the Eye, Part 1

The two Autobots worked together again whenSoundwaveinvaded the Ark for information. The crafty Decepticon got away, but Prowl and Jazz managed to capture his pet,Ravage,in a solid energy net. Prowl joined the Autobots for their subsequent battles atSherman Damand theruby crystal mines of Burma.More than Meets the Eye, Part 2During the final fight at the Decepticon space cruiser, Prowl ran overStarscream'snull-raybefore he could "activate" it.More than Meets the Eye, Part 3

Prowl and the Autobots next battled the Decepticons at a solar power station. Prowl andRatchetattempted to stop Starscream andSkywarpfrom escaping with the energon cubes, but Starscream started launching concussive blasts, knocking aside their lasers and driving them back. Later that day, Prowl zappedMegatronduring a cave fight, but was then clubbed from behind by Skywarp. That's snow fair.Transport to Oblivion

It's like looking into a mirror... well, not really.

While Prowl andBluestreakbattled the Decepticons, Prowl'sbattle computerwas knocked offline by a particularly fierce blow. Crippled, Prowl extended his antenna to seek out an online computer that he could patch into. He foundChip Chase's desktop terminal, and the young human ally momentarily took control of Prowl, animating the Autobot warrior with his computer. Chip and Prowl handily defeated the Decepticons, and the Autobot remarked that Chip was a human after his own central processor.Roll for ItAfterOptimus Primesuffered some brief but severe injuries, Prowl was present with the other Autobots in defending the Ark, as the Decepticons attempted to press their advantage.Divide and Conquer

Prowl was also among the Autobots who took an unpleasant number of hits trying to calm down the rampagingDinobots.S.O.S. DinobotsHe held no grudges, though, and participated in the construction of two new Dinobots a few months later, using laser bursts to cut up raw materials for the design. Still, he showed a bit more caution than his fellow Autobots during the "play fighting" tests ofSnarlandSwoop.WhileIronhide,Bluestreak andSideswipewent in for close quarters combat with the Dinos (and subsequently got bashed around quite a bit), Prowl stuck to long-range laser fire, and managed to avoid getting his head handed to him.War of the Dinobots

AfterSparkplug Witwickywas kidnapped, Prowl was shown acting as a strategist for once, constructing battle-plans usingHound's holographic maps for reference. He coordinated a two-pronged rescue mission on the Decepticon's sunken space cruiser, from above and below. While he and the main Autobot force dropped in on the Decepticons from above and drew their fire,Cliffjumper,Brawn,andWindchargerused their special abilities to tunnel right underneath the base, breaking in and freeing Sparkplug before the Decepticons got wind of it.The Ultimate Doom, Part 1He remained active with the Autobot forces as they dealt with Cybertron's newfound proximity to Earth.The Ultimate Doom, Part 2Prowl later surfed into battle against the Decepticons, but the resulting tidal wave allowed Megatron to escape before the fight even started. A small contingent of Autobots eventually tracked the Decepticon energon shuttle to a tropical coast, and engaged them in battle. The fully charged Decepticons soon began to overpower the Autobots, however, driving them back to the safety of some convenient trenches. Prowl attempted to suggest a strategic regrouping, but Prime wouldn't hear of it. Luckily,Skyfirearrived with reinforcements from Cybertron to even the odds. As Megatron retreated, the Autobots were left to deal with a tidal wave large enough to wipe out all life on Earth. Prowl calculated they would need an explosion equivalent to 10 billion astro-liters of energy to knock Cybertron out of Earth's orbit and reverse the tidal wave. AtSpike's suggestion, the Autobots took aim at Megatron's fleeing starship, igniting the energon cubes inside to expel Cybertron from orbit and save the Earth.The Ultimate Doom, Part 3After the devastation, Prowl was seen helping repair human civilization, and hunting down the loose ends left by the Decepticons' schemes.Countdown to ExtinctionProwl also bore witness to the gladiatorial combat between Megatron and Optimus Prime.Heavy Metal War

AttackoftheAutobots-Prowlcar.jpg

After Sparkplug Witwicky created a metallic Frankenstein calledAutobot X,to the abject surprise of no one it suddenly ran amok. Prowl, Ironhide andTrailbreakerstood up to the crazed creation, and Prowl used hisacid pelletsto incapacitate Autobot X. Later that day, Spike Witwicky was injured during a battle with the Decepticons at a rocket base. Prowl provided a "police escort" for Ratchet to get Spike to a hospital as quickly as possible.Autobot SpikeAs the Decepticons staged a daring raid at the Ark's front door, Prowl drove out to meet them in combat. He had to dodge and transform in mid-air to avoidThundercracker's missiles, and ended up being divebombed byLaserbeakanyhow. Prowl got back at the tinfoil turkey by strapping a wire-guided bola onto his rifle, and lassoing the Decepticon bird as he swooped by for another pass. Despite the laser blasts hurled his way, Prowl held tight to his catch until Laserbeak severed the rope and fled. When he went back to recharge at headquarters, a ploy by Megatron altered his personality components and he went on an angry red-eyed rampage with the rest of the altered Autobots until their circumstances were overturned.Attack of the Autobots

Prowl overheard Cliffjumper's infamous accusations aboutMirage's loyalty, but neglected to participate in the retrieval of the missingelectro-cells.TraitorHe also played a minor role in recovering theImmobilizer,The Immobilizerand joined his fellow Autobots in a race for charity, which Spike and Chip had arranged for them.The Autobot RunProwl was part of the Autobot strike unit dispatched toWashington, D.C.when it came under attack by the Decepticons andSub-Atlanticans.He, Hound and Brawn engaged the Decepticons near the Washington Monument, until KingNergillzapped them with his paralyzing ray. Prowl remained inactive until the Dinobots joined the party, andGrimlockdestroyed the ray, freeing the incapacitated Autobots.Atlantis, Arise!

EntertheNightbird-JazzProwl.jpg

Next, the Autobots responded to an SOS when the super-computer calledTORQ IIIran amok. Unfortunately, they discovered TORQ was capable of controlling other simple machines in the area, and so Prowl and the others found themselves facing a horde of angry droids. Prowl was nearly swallowed whole by a mechanical scoop, until he fired an acid pellet down its gullet and corroded its inner workings.Day of the MachinesProwl was among the Autobots who failed to prevent the Decepticons from stealing the female ninja robot calledNightbird.While discussing the Decepticons' possible plans for Nightbird with Spike, Prowl was unaware the ninja herself was right above them on the Ark's elevator.Enter the Nightbird

Prowl charged the Decepticon flank when the Transformers were fighting overkorlonium crystals.A Prime ProblemProwl andSunstreakerwere part of a group of Autobots patrolling a riverbed...until they discovered the riverbed wasn't there anymore. Tracing the diverted water, they came across theConstructiconsand a Decepticon scheme to drill down toEarth's core.Megatron sicced Devastator on Prowl's team, forcing them to retreat for reinforcements. Back at the Ark, the Autobots cooked up a plot to usedominator disksand gain control over the Constructicons whenever they formed Devastator. As part of a commando raiding party, Prowl and the others lured the Constructicons out into the open. Under the cover of night, Prowl slipped a disk onScrapper,and soon all the Constructicons had disks planted on them. Although the Autobots temporarily gained control of Devastator, Megatron soon negated their control and retrieved his giant warrior.The Core

Prowl was present in the Ark during yet another display of the Dinobots' talent for chaos.Dinobot Island, Part 1After the Dinobots moved to a mysterious prehistoric island, time portals began opening all over North America. Prowl ledRed Alert,Infernoand Jazz to deal with a portal from the wild west. Prowl defeated the cattle rustlers by melting their guns with his acid pellets.Dinobot Island, Part 2Like all the Autobots, Prowl was temporarily banished into space by the citizens ofCentral City,thanks to Megatron's carefully orchestrated smear campaign.Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1He eventually returned with the others for an all-out assault on the Decepticons and re-established the Autobots' good name.Megatron's Master Plan, Part 2Prowl was also subject tocybertoniumdepletion, although he was ultimately revived when Spike andCarlybrought a fresh supply back from Cybertron.Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 2

When Megatron used theVoltronic Galaxerto scramble Earth's communications, the humans were left in a state of confusion. Prowl took a team of Autobots on the road to help motorists who missed the message about an incoming blizzard. Unfortunately, Thundercracker andRamjetgot involved and nearly turned the rescue mission into a catastrophe. Prowl and the Autobots were buried in snow for a time until they could dig themselves and the humans out.Blaster BluesHe was among the Autobots temporarily rendered invulnerable byelectrum,and fought the Decepticons for control of the golden lagoon.The Golden LagoonHe also helped stop Megatron from taking over New York City with an army of robot car drones.Make TracksProwl was on hand asPerceptoranalyzed the robotic plant life Bumblebee andCosmosbrought back to Earth. They determined the plants wereMorphobots,and extremely hazardous to all robot lifeforms.Quest for Survival

When theTriple Changersoverthrew Megatron and began vying for Decepticon command themselves,Blitzwingtook over a football stadium and began launching "long bombs" into the city beyond. Optimus Prime sent Prowl to investigate, alongside Bluestreak,SkidsandTracks,but they were stymied by Blitzwing's "zone defense". At his command, the Constructicons had created an elaborate and confusing maze of passages outside the stadium, leaving the Autobots racing around blindly inside its tight corridors. Using his flight and tank modes for maneuverability and power, Blitzwing easily overwhelmed the Autobot invaders. Prowl and Skids plowed into each other on a blind junction, and were then mowed over by the Decepticon's massive treads. The crazed Scrapper had them rebuilt into a throne for him inside the zone, untilSmokescreenandHoistrescued their comrades.Triple TakeoverAlthough he did absolutely nothing to save the missing Autobots or stopLord Chumley's antics, Prowl was allowed a heroic drive into the sunset along with Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots.Prime Target

After the government concocted a new super-fuel, they decided to offer it to the Autobots for testing. Fearing a Decepticon attack, Prowl arranged a series of security measures to protect the cargo, and keep the Decepticons from learning about the fuel. Unfortunately, those measures failed, and Megatron attacked the tanker convoy with his Seekers. Despite the breach, the Autobots' superior driving abilities enabled them to outmaneuver the Decepticons.The Key to Vector Sigma, Part 1

The vanity-king, the jock, and the prick.

When Jazz and Cliffjumper were kidnapped by Starscream'sCombaticons,Prowl traveled to the Amalgamated Water & Power Plant with the other Autobots to rescue them. Wisely, the Autobots completely avoided the war between the Decepticons and Combaticons taking place immediately to their left — they just grabbed their pals and split.Starscream's BrigadeProwl, Tracks, and Sideswipe went with Optimus Prime to clear the Insecticons out of a human settlement. They were aided in evacuating the neighborhood by theProtectobots,leaving the Autobots clear to fire at will at the Insecticon clones. This relatively routine mission turned sour, however, when Spike and Perceptor reported that Earth's orbit had been altered, sending it towards the sun. Learning the effect originated from Cybertron, Prowl and the others attempted to hijack the space bridge, butShrapnelstole the bridge's control panel before they could board the transporter. The Autobots searched the area for signs of the control panel with sensor beams from their chests, but all Prowl managed to turn up was an old wrecked television. The panel was later recovered and repaired, and Prowl joined both Autobots and Decepticons alike in traveling to Cybertron to stop the Combaticons' plot.The Revenge of BruticusProwl also helped defend the Ark when it was later attacked byBruticusand the Decepticons.B.O.T.

In the year2005,Prowl was piloting a shuttle run to Earth, to collect and bring fresh energon and supplies toMoonbase OnefromAutobot City,in preparation for a planned assault to retake Cybertron. The Autobot shuttle was hijacked en route by Megatron, Starscream and the Constructicons, who sought to use the vessel to sneak the Decepticon armada past Autobot City's early warning systems. After Brawn was struck down, Prowl fired back at his attackers, very nearly shooting Starscream's head off in the process, but was felled by a single blast fromScavenger,which penetrated his armor, burned his innards horribly, and left him belching fiery smoke as he fell to the floor.The Transformers: The Movie

Prowl’s involvement in these events, or events mostly similar, were also chronicled in the comic mini-series "Transformers: The Animated Movie"and the storybook"Transformers the Movie."

Prowl's body was evidently recovered for interment, as his grave was housed in the interstellarAutobot Mausoleum.Along with the mausoleum itself, Prowl's remains were later plunged into a red sun as a side-effect of aQuintessonplot.Dark Awakening

Japanese cartoon continuity

The events of the Generation 1 cartoon occur in Japanese continuity as described above. The Japanese timeline adds many new stories and events into the chronology; in Prowl's case, some of them centre around an unexplained apparent resurrection.

Granted a vision of the future by the time-tossed DecepticonRavage,Wheeljacksaw Prowl's looming death in the year 2005, and resolved to save his life.Project BodyshopProwl was equipped with theGenetronic Translink System,which would allow him to relocate hislife forcetosubspace,and from there, control multiple Binaltech bodies; therefore, the vision Wheeljack saw of his friend's dead body could still come to pass, while his life force would live on. Before the first of his secondary bodies were completed, however, Prowl was sent on a mission to investigate some potential Decepticon activity in the vicinity ofSaturn,and came under heavy attack from the villains. He contacted Wheeljack on Earth, who was in the process of transferring memory data into Prowl's secondary Binaltech body, and Wheeljack prepared the GT System for a risky manoeuvre—the transplantation of Prowl's life core from his body, through subspace, into the Binaltech unit in Wheeljack's workshop. The transfer was initiated, but unfortunately, the unstable link collapsed midway through the process, and Prowl's life core was lost to the depths of subspace. Believing that the world still required the skills of Prowl, Prowl's longtime friend Chip Chase transferred his life essence into the Binaltech body, merging with the memory data already installed in it to become "Prowl 2".Prowl & Chase

A few years later, Prowl's life core found its way through the infinite vastness of subspace and materialized in a different universe: the original timeline from which the Binaltech world had branched off. Prowl's life core was found by the Autobots of that world, but unfortunately, it was soon discovered that even in another universe, he was not beyond the reach of his home dimension's Decepticons.Doctor ArkevilleandSwindleused a neuro-net frame combined with a subspace node to locate his spark across the multiverse, and drain energy from it to power a giant monster they had made from syntheticelectrum.Unfinished Business, Part 2Prowl's life core began to destabilize as a consequence, and so the Bluestreak from the original timeline voyaged across the dimensions to the Binaltech world to alert Prowl's fellow Autobots to his dire situation.Unfinished Business, Part 1With Bluestreak's aid, the Autobots tracked down the Decepticon operation and destroyed the monster, severing its connection to Prowl's life core. Though stable now, Prowl's life force was still too weak to make an interdimensional journey unguarded, requiring a body for protection. Chip Chase separated his consciousness from the "Prowl 2" body so that it could be taken back to Bluestreak's timeline to finally serve as the body of the Autobot for whom it was always intended.Unfinished Business, Part 2

Notes

(thumbnail)
Turns out hedidn'tknow his vocalizer from his exhaust port.
  • Instead of having a normal gunshot death inThe Transformers: The Movie,Prowl is shown having orange smoke coming from his mouth as he dies.Hardcore.
  • Prowl's apparent revival inThe Headmastersis one of those errors that happened in the Japanese series as a result of the Japanese production staff not being aware of his death in the movie, as it did not reach Japan for several more years. However, that's really not an excuse, because he was listed among the deceased in both the English and Japanese versions of "Dark Awakening".Hirofumi Ichikawawould patch this up in his stories, starting with theBinaltechfictionand continuing throughAsk Vector Prime,spinning an elaborate tale that resulted in Prowl dying and another version of himself and Wheeljack traveling from analternate timelineto theoriginal timelinetake their places.
