	In another universe, the technological advances brought about by '''Isaac Sumdac''' could have proven of great benefit to humanity. But ''this'' Isaac Sumdac wants to dominate humanity, not aid it. Through sheer chance, opportunities keep presenting themselves to the not-so-good doctor, so why ~~should~~ bend things to his favour? Sumdac lives for conquest, and is invigorated by his mental chess games with his reluctantly servile Autobots. Even his own daughter is a plaything to him.

	~~When young~~ Isaac Sumdac investigated a meteor and ~~discovered~~ the decapitated [[Optimus Prime (SG Animated)\|Optimus Prime]]~~, his life changed~~. ~~Reverse-engineering~~ the technology, ~~he built himself an empire and conquered~~ lower [[Michigan]]. ~~He lost his eye to~~ a ~~mysterious~~ [[protoform]] ~~that~~ assimilated his DNA. ~~Not one to waste an asset~~, ~~he used~~ [[Sari Sumdac (SG Animated)\|~~his new daughter~~]] as a ~~laboratory test case~~. ~~With her~~, and his ~~slave~~ army of ~~recently reawakened~~ [[~~Bumblebee~~ (SG Animated)\|~~Autobots~~]], ~~firmly outfitted~~ with ~~control collars~~, he ~~is now more dangerous than ever in his~~ [[~~Terrordrome~~]] ~~fortress~~.~~<ref>BotCon 2011 attendee lithographs</ref>~~		In his youth, Isaac Sumdac investigated an apparent meteor crash and instead found the decapitated head of [[Optimus Prime (SG Animated)\|Optimus Prime]]. In subsequent years, Sumdac reverse engineered the technology in Prime's head to establish a ruthless military technocracy, conquering lower [[Michigan]] and ruling it from his [[Terrordrome]] in [[Detroit]] with an [[automaton\|army of robots]]. {{storylink\|The 'Bots and The 'Cons\|The 'Cons}}

			Unrelatedly, a [[protoform]] found its way to Earth. {{storylink\|Transformers I.Q. issue 16\|Transformers I.Q. #16}} When Sumdac encountered it, it instinctively attacked him and ripped out his eye. It also subsequently assimilated his DNA {{storylink\|The 'Bots and The 'Cons\|The 'Cons}} and grew to consider him its creator. {{storylink\|Transformers I.Q. issue 16\|Transformers I.Q. #16}} The protoform became his daughter, [[Sari Sumdac (SG Animated)\|Sari Sumdac]]. Isaac kept her caged up like an animal and experimented on her unique techno-organic nature. Sumdac's forcible implantation of [[AllSpark]] fragments into her skin unlocked Sari's true power and granted her a battle mode. He enlisted her as a personal enforcer, albeit fitted with a control collar to ensure her cooperation. {{storylink\|The 'Bots and The 'Cons\|The 'Cons}}

			At some point, Sumdac became personally acquainted with Optimus Prime, though whether this was when he was a disembodied head or later on is unclear. He found himself kept on his toes by the intellectual struggle for dominance between himself and the Autobot leader. {{storylink\|The AllSpark Almanac Addendum}} {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The Complete AllSpark Almanac\|The Complete AllSpark Almanac}}

			Once Sumdac was able to, he reawakened Prime and the Autobots and outfitted them with control collars as well, {{storylink\|The 'Bots and The 'Cons\|The 'Cons}} giving him a "crack squad of extraterrestrial assassins". {{storylink\|The AllSpark Almanac Addendum}} {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The Complete AllSpark Almanac\|The Complete AllSpark Almanac}} The Autobots strained under being controlled by a human, {{storylink\|The 'Bots and The 'Cons\|The 'Cons}} but their mutual hatred for Sumdac united them. {{storylink\|Transformers I.Q. issue 16\|Transformers I.Q. #16}} Nevertheless, Sudmac granted them some measure of free will and time; [[Ratchet (SG Animated)\|Ratchet]] was allowed to continue his twisted experiments, and [[Prowl (SG Animated)\|Prowl]] found the resources to create a clone army. The Autobots' nominal mission was to defeat [[Megatron (SG Animated)\|Megatron]]'s Decepticons and capture the AllSpark; Sumdac considered a risk-benefit analysis of keeping the amoral Prime around if they succeeded.

			On one occasion, Megatron stole Sumdac's sonic attack robot and turned it into [[Soundwave (SG Animated)\|Soundwave]], for which Sumdac blamed Sari. Professor [[Black]] was a human enemy to Sumdac's empire, and he augmented multiple humans with technology to create superheroes such as the [[Amiable Archer]], [[Millisec]], [[Private Princess]], and [[Cyrus]]. A year or so after the Soundwave incident, he returned, having recruited these human heroes into a group called [[Heroic Youths Battling Robots Infesting Detroit\|HYBRID]]. With the Autobots incapacitated by Soundwave, Sari was forced to team up with some [[hobobot]]s to rescue them. In a letter addressed to her father, she expressed her resentment over once again having to do his dirty work while he sat on his butt. She closed the letter by threatening to rip out Sumdac's other eye and take control over the Terrordrome, but she may have torn the letter up before sending it. {{storylink\|The AllSpark Almanac Addendum}} {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The Complete AllSpark Almanac\|The Complete AllSpark Almanac}}
