Some people say he’s not a superhero. He’s an alien robot. A warlord. A leader of a military faction. But isn’t Iron Man just a guy in a metal suit from Earth? Same thing, bigger planet.
He doesn’t have a secret identity. Everyone knows his face. It’s a big red truck face. Hard to hide that in a crowd. “Hey, is that Optimus Prime?” Yeah, he’s the 18-wheeler with the flames.

But here’s the kicker: a superhero without a secret identity is just a public servant with very good insurance. He’s a public servant who can punch a moon.
Funniest Fact: He's a Licensed Driver
Did you know Optimus Prime has a license plate? In the live-action movies, his plate is “1-OWO-58.” That’s not a joke. He has a government registration. Batman doesn’t pay taxes. Optimus Prime gets vehicle inspections.
He honks his horn. Beep beep. Imagine Superman honking. You can’t. Because it’s hilarious.
Also, he can’t fly without his jetpack. Superman flies. Spider-Man swings. Optimus Prime asks for a ride from a bald eagle. Okay, that last one isn’t canon. But it should be.
