This article is about the device used in the fictional Transformers world. For the real-world hypothetical device, see space elevator.

In Marvel Comics's Transformers comic, the Space Bridge is a device used by the Decepticons to travel between different planets, usually between Cybertron and Earth.

Although the Space Bridge's precise method of operation has never been explained, it appears in the comic as two halves of a large, metallic bridge, with some sort of subspace tunnel connecting them. The Decepticons (or their prisoners) walk onto one end of the bridge on one planet, and when they reach its middle point, the subspace tunnel teleports them onto the opposite end on another planet.

According to early issues of the comic, the Space Bridge was originally constructed from the body of an imprisoned Autobot scientist named Spanner.
