When [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]] psychically invaded Unicron's mind, Unicron immediately captured and threatened to destroy him. But, impressed with his daring, the god granted his captive's "last request" to know Unicron's true nature and history. He told Death's Head about the days of the universe's infancy when he was a force of nature, a being of pure evil with a dark army that only Primus and his Light Gods could stand against. Their titanic battles threatened the existence of life itself, so Primus tricked Unicron into battling on the astral plane and then jumping back to the physical universe, where both were imprisoned in asteroids.
