TFtember: Transformers#46

"Ca$h and Car-nage!" the Transformers#46 (November 1988) with credits to Bob Budiansky (script), Jose Delbo (pencils), Danny Bulanadi (inks), Nelson Yomtov (colors), Bill Oakley (letters), and Don Daley (editor)


We get introduced to four interesting fellows. 


Burn-Out: A bounty hunter with a tendency to blast first and last.

Roadhog Horton: A demolition driver with an uncanny knack for turning cars into scrap metal

Skunge and Felix: A duo of bounty hunters. They use their small size and high tech to take down larger targets. 


All four are approached by someone who works for a Mr. Z, of the Z Foundation. His mission-to protect Earth from giant scumbags, like robots for example. He offers them fifty grand for each robot they bring in, and this the Roadjammers are born! So named as each hunter is equipped a Z Foundation made 'jammer' which should block a Transformer's ability to transform. 

A group of Autobots get teleported into the middle of New York, something that the group thinks is a bit odd. How did the foundation know the 'bots would in that exact location?

Yeah, turns out Mr. Z is really Zarak and his plans are to destroy the Autobots using human dupes. Can the 'jammers figure it out in time?

Those would be the only appearance of the Roadjammers, which is a pity. Some scuzzy bikers taking on giant robots? Come on, that would have been an interesting choice.
