Ask Vector Prime
In Primax 1086.0 Kappa, Nebulos had succeeded at turning away the Transformers. But, decades later, the ambitious Peer Mortilus Zarak retrieved the bodies left behind by the invaders at the Arvassian Range and took them to the Grax Communications Facility. Through the science of Hi-Test and Vorath, the remains of Fortress Maximus and Scorponok were melded into a single body and Zarak binary-bonded to it. The interaction with Fortress and Scorponok's selves drove Zarak mad and "Zarak Maximus" went on a rampage that was only stopped when he realized he could have killed his daughter, Llyra, and his grandson, Olin. He fled the planet and met the Bio Ranger Iga, who convinced Zarak Maximus that the Micromasters at Micropolis had Zodiac energon that could help with his mental stability. Zarak Maximus attacked the city, only to be driven away, although he was still allied with Iga afterwards. becoming the first of the Thirteen Great Demon Generals. Ask Vector Prime
Commercial appearances
Stomping along, Zarak Maximus attempted to stomp Micropolis. The Micromasters didn't cotton to this and swarmed him like hundreds of tiny ninjas, crawling all over Zarak and toppling him. Micromasters commercial
It is worth mentioning that the city Zarak Maximus was trying to stomp contained both Autobot and Decepticon Micromaster bases. Clearly, he is indiscriminate in his stomping.
Notes
- Zarak Maximus was not named for decades, being known only as the "Giant Decepticon Soldier" as per Transformers Generations. He was christened with a name by the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime.
- His model appears to be a frankensteining of several extant characters with details altered; his feet seem to derive from the Autobot Headmaster Fortress Maximus, his torso and forearms from Cerebros, while his head, shins, and colors are generally reminiscent of the Decepticon Headmaster Scorponok.
