The "Binder of Revelation" is the informal name used by Hasbro creatives for the 354-page production bible that undergirds fiction in the Aligned continuity family.[1] Co-written by Aaron Archer, Rik Alvarez and other Transformers experts from Hasbro (with help from outside partners Fabian Nicieza and the fandom), it charts billions of years of history, combining concepts from all previous "generations" of Transformers lore.
Content
The Binder contains full-colour illustrations and charts the history of the Transformers from the beginning to the end of the universe. Transformers Vault contains three scans of the Binder:
- Orion Pax/Optimus Prime's bio, essentially the version of the character adapted into Transformers: Exodus. It is also mentioned as a data clerk he has a keen interest in history and will often find parallels in current events (a quirk carried over in Prime). Furthermore, it is revealed Transformers have "polarities", equivalent to a human star sign and based on the Thirteen original Transformers. Optimus claims Prima and Alpha Trion as his primary and secondary polarity.
- An image of Prima, wielding the Star Saber (that contains the Matrix of Leadership in its hilt).
- A map of Cybertron detailing locations, with a brief description and some of the characters who call it home. This was mostly followed in Exodus, though the following were not mentioned:
