==Overview==<br />
In the wake of the confrontation with the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] on [[Necroworld]], the marooned [[Team Rodimus]] attempts to return to the ''[[Lost Light]]'' with the help of the "[[Disappeared]]"—the various [[time travel]]ling Transformers plucked from across time and space. Among them are runaway [[blacksmith]]-turned adventurer [[Anode]] and her partner [[Lug (IDW)|Lug]], who struggle to adjust to the present day as they deals with demons from her past.<br />
<br />
Before Team Rodimus can get offworld, a rogue [[geobomb]], courtesy of the [[Galactic Council]] shunts the planet into an entirely different universe. When Rodimus and a small crew of Autobots attempt to return to Cybertron, they find themselves in the middle of [[Functionist Universe|an alternate Cybertron]], where [[Megatron (G1)/IDW Generation 1 continuity|Megatron]] was never born and [[Functionism]] reigns supreme. The ''Lost Light'' crew find themselves embroiled in the Council's plot to consolidate their power by crushing the heroic [[Anti-Vocationist League]] and their supporters. With the help of the native universe's [[Rung (G1)|Rung]] — his true function finally revealed — the Autobots manage to foil their plan and return home... but accidentally leave Megatron behind. Taking command of the AVL, Megatron and his old friend [[Terminus (G1)|Terminus]] start their revolution anew. <br />
<br />
The crew of the ''Lost Light'' finally get offworld, but Tailgate, his mutating [[outlier]] powers growing increasingly destructive and erratic, volunteers to stay behind in the hopes that a cure can be found for his condition. [[Fangry (G1)|Fangry]], his pride wounded by an earlier encounter with the super-powered Autobot, takes advantage of the situation to bury him alive for another six million years.<br />

[[James Roberts]] returns as the writer. Due to IDW editorial wanting a fresh artistic start, UK artist [[Jack Lawrence]] replaces previous MTMTE mainstay [[Alex Milne]], with Milne providing alternate covers for issues.<ref>[http://www.forcesofgeek.com/2016/07/sdcc-idw-announces-post-revolution-debuts.html SDCC – IDW Announces Post-Revolution Debuts!]</ref> Milne later provided art for issue #13 of the series.
