A Netflix Transformers series almost featured an obscure but fan-favorite Decepticon.Concept art for the shelved Transformers: Legacy animated series on Netflix recently spread online. This was intended to be a three-season coinciding with the corresponding toy line from Hasbro. The concept art in question was for a Decepticon widely known as Straxus, although he’s also gone by several other names throughout the years. Despite his somewhat obscure status, he would have been one of the show’s main villains. The concept art also showed that he would have taken on a secondary design after experiencing a traumatic accident.Lord Straxus of Darkmount debuted in The Transformers #17 by Bob Budiansky and Don Perlin and was completely original to the Marvel Transformers comic books. While he had no basis in the series’ toy line, his alternate mode — that of a Cybertronian cannon — was similar to the one that Megatron’s upgraded form Galvatron turned into. Due to this status as a character mostly confined to the comics, Straxus has largely been ignored by outside fiction. He’s also taken on several different names over the years due to copyright/legal purposes, with his first toy (released in 2010 as part of the Transformers: Generations line) being named Darkmount after the location of his fortress in the comics.
