Hahaha! Funny. It's also funny to say Perceptor-like stuff 2 friends, if you do

BAWHOOM ('splosion from #47), which true sound effects connoisseurs would never
confuse with ...
BAWOOM (Starscream blasting Omega Supreme in #50), which is subtly different

BWOOM (Roadhandler launching his fist in #54 ... oddly, it was FWOOSH earlier
in the issue. See also Buster Witwicky being blasted by a Realvision ... thing
in #48 and Burn-out firing his gun in #46.)
Then we have ...
BRAKAM! (Fort Max blasting Galvy in #79) which of course is slightly different
from ...
BRRKMMM! (collapsing building in #79 ... the vowels make a difference, folks)
which is totally different from ...
BRADOOOM! ('splosion on The Ark in #78), which newbies sometimes confuse with
...
BAKOOOM! (Getaway being blasted in US TF# 80), which only the unobservant would
confuse with ...
BAKOOM! (Megatron blasting an unknown Autobot in #57), which shouldn't be
confused with the less explosive and just plain ...
KOOM (Galvy blasting Megs in #78). Am I the only person to have spent sleepless
nights wondering how many KOOMs make one BAKOOM?
...
Alright-y then.
Also worth noting were two POK sound effects (#47), which I found pathetic.
What kind of wimpy Transformer uses a gun that causes a half-assed POK sound
effect? Trade up for a BAKOOM-causing gun or at the very least a BWAM-ing gun
already. Sheesh.
Then there's ....
UNAH! (Rapture's exclamation on losing her balance in #77. "Oprah, Unah! Unah,
Oprah" ... no, no, no.)
SPATCH! (Grimlock smacking Fangry in #77. Fangry's terse response, "KKKT!")
But for sheer outrageousness there's no beating the sound of Fireflight firing
in #50 ...
BUDDHA.
Seriously.
A religious figure. Also a TF sound effect. So wacky.
Anyway, who ordinarily creates those sound effects? Is it specified by the
writer in the script before/after seeing the pencils? I expect the stuff in
speech bubbles is by the writers but what about the event stuff like 'splosions
and guns firing?
Regardless, I think we ought to pay tribute to the people who come up with
those sound effects. It must be a difficult, time-consuming job picking
just the right effect. Should this explosion be a "BAWOOM" or is it
sufficiently large and impressive enough to merit a "BAWHOOM"? What a tough,
agonising decision to have to make.
It's almost enough to make one go, "KKKT!"
Cheers,
WarWolf

You are forgetting:
BRADDAKOOM! (Megatron's secret fortress exploding due to the force of
the explosives Ratchet teleported inside it, US TFG1 #59). This is my
all-time favourite explosion sound effect.

Didn't this also appear in a G2 comic? Or am I misremembering?
Anyway, shouldn't we have JESUS, MOHAMED and KHRISNA sound effects as
well, to advocate freedom of belief?
(KHRISNA is more traditionally spelled KRSNA with dots under the middle
...
three letters.)

Oddly enough, Unicron's explosion made absolutely no sound at all.

That's because it was in space, and sound isn't transmitted in
space.

Well, sure, but there's sound in space in Transformers all the time. And
Unicron was sorta in Cybertron's atmosphere...
You'd think it would have made at least a small "woosh." And then the
death by shrapnel as it fell to the surface.

I couldn't resist to make a FFOD comment... or was it in another
episode?

No, you're right, it's from the first part of 'Five Faces of Darkness.' It occurs as
Cyclonus, Scourge, and the Sweeps enter Unicron's head to find out what
happened to Galvatron and they hear what sounds like a deep moan.
