Stinkbomb was listed on his biography as a specialist in psychological warfare, and as a result also helped out as an emergency psychologist. In addition to his noncombat duties, he was armed with a bladed tail, mirage projectors, and an incapacitating chemical spray akin to his beast form. This was said to occasionally affect him--he was immune to the incapacitation, but not to its smell, and as a result would be shunned by fellow Maximals.

IDW Publishing

He appeared in the 2006 IDW "Beast Wars" comic series. He was among the Maximal protoforms from the "Axalon". He was activated and put in chronal phase by Razorbeast at Magmatron's request, but was protected from Magmatron's Predacon shell-program by Razorbeast's viral code.

Soon after awakening, he joined up with K-9, Bantor, Stinkbomb, Armordillo, and Noctorro. During their journey to meet up with Razorbeast, Torca got stuck in a tar pit and needed the help of his new traveling companions to free him.

In "Beast Wars: The Ascending" Armordillo, B'Boom, Bantor, Buzzclaw, Cybershark, Lazorbeak, Manterror, Optimus Minor, Powerpinch, Ramulus, Razorbeast, Retrax, Scuba, Sky Shadow, Spittor, Stinkbomb and Terragator were wounded in battle and left on Earth. Together they fought and defeated the Blendtrons Drancron, Elephaorpha and Rartorarta. Although Razorbeast survived the battle he was infected with Rartorarta's maddening sting and had to be put down by Optimus Minor to stop him from attacking his allies.
