Original Series
Reality
Anthony had very few friends before the Zapbots were created. One was his childhood friend Billy and the other was his middle school friend Matt (Rogish) who were both friends with each other as well. When Anthony created the Zapbots he parted ways a bit from his human friends due to responsibilities. When Anthony accidentally passed into another reality he discovered he was still good friends with Rogish and Billy. When Anthony returned to his Prime Reality he reached out to his old friends to rebuild the relationship from their childhood.

The Fall and Rebirth of Gearatron
Rogish was one of the many Headmaster warriors protecting the United States Capital when numerous Zapbot enemies launched an all-scale assault on Earth.
Behind the Scenes
Matt Rogish is my longest friend from Elementary School days. He was the friend I played Transformers with back when we were young. We became friends after he ripped my glasses off of my head and broke them, and subsequently, I invited him the following week to my birthday party. I've been friends with this jerk since then :)
An inherent problem of having friends throughout my life with the same name, I decided to go by his last name to differentiate him from Matt E. One of the few people in these stories I'll actually mention their last name.
