Synopsis
Nexus Prime and Aquarius have been traveling from Cybertron and Cybertron, looking for something Nexus Prime can't quite remember. The pair have found that most Cybertrons, its the Autobots who are good and Decepticons who are evil-one which proves to be true again, as they are accosted by the Decepticons Runamuck, Runabout, Jetstorm, and Deluge. Aquarius is bummed, finding that he's in another universe where Quintessons are annoyed. Soon, the insulting Decepticons burst forth to attack, with the two newer Decepticons attacking Prime while the Battlechargers beat up Aquarius. Having faced far worse that these ruffians, Aquarius reflects on the events that led to here. Nexus Prime, one of the Classics original Transformers, was split into five parts across the multiverse; Skyfall, about looking for a past he couldn't remember, and who falling into a destiny bigger than he ever knew; Landquake, a Decepticon who no longer had a cause; Breakaway, a guardian who no longer remembered his charges; Topspin, a bot who was easily swayed into the causes of evil robots; and Heatwave, the only one not looking for a past. Eventually, all were recalled to Aquarius' Cybertron, where, after the local Megatron was assassinated, the five merged for the first time in millions of stellar cycles. Nexus Prime remade Megatron into Galvatron, and together the two stopped the Autobot superweapon Omega Doom. Now, Nexus Prime and Aquarius search the multiverse for a mission the Prime can only barely remember.
Soon, the Prime takes out the Decepticons, and having grown to trust the Quintesson, tells him what he knows of his mission. He was to guard an artifact that, in the wrong hands, could destroy all of space and time. The artifact was split, and now that Nexus is reunited, something big is coming that could decide the fate of the multiverse. As they walk through markets, Prime is bothered, feeling as though this Cybertron has something important about it, but they're too late to find it. Standing up from a box he has sat on, Nexus Prime is pointed to an odd Autobot symbol with wings. Prime suddenly remembers; this symbol is a clue to other versions of those who could help them. Heading out to their next Cybertron, Aquarius can't help but feel that the bots who the sigil belonged too could have had some good stories to tell...
...as millions of years ago, the box is carried around by Elite Guardsman Kup, as he loads up for a mission...

Quotes
"Looks like you you've wandered into the wrong place, Autobot!"
"And a Quintesson? With an Autobot? Didn't your motherboard teach you better?"
- —Runamuck and Jetstorm give Nexus Prime and Aquarius an unfriendly welcome.
"Those that push through the dark, though, to the light on the other side, they find themselves in the lap of redemption. And let me tell you, redemption is just rollin' hills of wonders, and totally groovy!"
- —Aquarius waxes hippie poetic.
"And my—what did you call it?—vibe is telling me where we can start looking."
"Twitchin'! Let's get our beat feet on!"
"...you don't have feet."
- —Nexus Prime and Aquarius
Notes
- While technically the start of the next "Wings of Honor" story, this comic is more of a "clip show" of Nexus Prime's journey thus far and a wrap-up for his story.
- The market that Nexus Prime and Aquarius wander through near the end has vendors that are selling stuff like piles of AllSpark cubes, Transmetal drivers, and Cyber Planet Keys.
Errors
- The Mini-Cons who appear in Landquake's flashback panel are supposed to be members of the Sky Terror Mini-Con Team, but they're colored like the Energon Saber team.
