Synopsis
Cybertron: birthplace of the thirteen original Transformers, and the body of Primus, the creator of all Transformers. The Thirteen are assigned individual duties, ensuring the multiverse's ongoing survival. Millennia after their creation, many of the Thirteen have left Cybertron, some forgetting their names and histories. Vector Prime, however remains. Guardian of all space and time, he ensures the balance stays in check, and records everything he observes, from Cybertronians, to ancient humans, to one of the greatest threats of casualty, and his creator's brother: Unicron.
Unicron creates ripples in the ocean of time, destroying worlds in his endless hunger, an eternal darkness to balance against Primus' light. For a long time, the brothers were dormant, and Vector left his home, watching, waiting, until he would be needed again. He has witness great triumphs in the multiverse, such as when Optimus Prime unleashed the Matrix of Leadership's power against the Hate Plague. He has witnessed their darkest hours, watching as Shockwave taunts Optimus Prime's disembodied head, and even intervening when Megatron's attempted assassination of Optimus threatened the timestream. But when a battle in the core of Cybertron accidentally reawakens Primus and Unicron, Vector rushes back to the fold, and attempts to save galaxies from Unicron's quantum energies, and mourns when he fails. Eventually, his descendants, the modern day Cybertronians, unite to fight back against Unicron, as Vector fixes the damages left behind the scene. However, exhausted by his duties, he doesn't realize Unicron's destruction will have dire consequences in one universe until it's too late. Alerted by Vector Sigma, he realizes the balances has been destroyed, and returns to his home for the first time in centuries, near which Unicron has collapsed into an ominous black hole....

Notes
- This issue shows many key points in previous Transformers stories from across the original comics, the original cartoon, Beast Wars, and the Armada television series. It establishes that there is one Unicron across the multiple continuities, and that Vector Prime travels through all of Transformers history.
- One of the silhouettes of the first 12 Transformers that stands behind Vector Prime in his first panel appears to be that of The Fallen.
- In the scenes of early Cybertron, we see the return of a generic Transformer from the first issue of Marvel's Transformers comic book series, whom some fans have named Big Red.
- The retelling of the Primal Scream portrays Primus differently than in the original comic. Instead of a tangible face sculpted into the wall, there is a ball of energy in which his screaming face appears.
