Ratchet Buried Megatron Alive — So Why Did The Cartoon Make Him a Background Medic?

Ratchet was never just the Autobot medic. In Transformers G1, he was known as the doctor who kept the Autobots alive. But his story with Megatron reveals a side of Ratchet that the cartoon never showed. In the original Marvel Comics, Ratchet is forced to become something he was never trained to be — a warrior. When he finds himself face-to-face with Megatron, the Autobot doctor makes a dangerous deal with the Decepticon leader, knowing that one mistake could cost him his life. In Transformers Marvel Comics #7 and #8, Ratchet stands alone while the other Autobots remain offline, discovers the Dinobots, outsmarts Megatron, and ultimately faces him in one of the darkest stories involving the Autobot medic. But why did the classic Transformers G1 cartoon never show this side of Ratchet? This video explores Ratchet, Megatron, the Autobots, Decepticons, the Dinobots, and the shocking story hidden inside the original Transformers comics. If you grew up watching Transformers G1, this is a side of Ratchet you probably never saw on television.
