“	RRRGGHHHH! MINERS!!! RRRRGHHH, RRRRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!	„
	~ Darkwing expressing his hatred for miners and his most infamous quote.

Darkwing is a minor antagonist in the 2024 animated film Transformers One. He is a loyal soldier who only swears allegiance to Sentinel Prime and the corrupt government alongside Airachnid. As a member of Sentinel Prime's empire, he is well-known to be a strict controller who supervises the Energon Miners.

He was voiced by Isaac C. Singleton Jr.

What makes him a Hate Sink?

• He is ableist towards cogless Cybertronians, having sadistic enjoyment of beating them up.
• He sent Bumblebee/B-127 to sub level 50, resulting him to become insane, with Bumblebee forming obsessions with objects and giving them names.
• To say that he is miserable would be an understatement.
• Had Elita-1 fired from being a Captain of Energon Mines, even though Optimus Prime/Orion and Megatron/D-16 were the reason for it.
  • While his anger at Orion flipping him off is reasonable, he deserved it for firing Elita-1 for no reason and when D-16 tried to pardon Darkwing about Orion's actions, he still didn't care and instead punched D-16 in the face.
• He knowingly endangered everyone on the race to attack D-16 and Orion Pax.
• He sends Orion and D-16 to sub level 50 so they can become insane like Bumblebee, despite Sentinel Prime trying to promote them so the miners become motivated, putting his own boss’s plans in jeopardy over a grudge.
• After telling everyone to start working even harder, he tries to punch a miner (Ironhide) for no reason other than spite, before being stopped and punched towards an arcade machine by Optimus.

Trivia

• Darkwing and Sentinel Prime are the hate-sinks originated from Transformers One.
