All... on The New Battlestars!

The Battlestars were first organized by Autobot Supreme Commander Dai Atlas to counter the approaching threat of Decepticon Emperor Dark Nova. Dai Atlas inaugurated Sky Garry as temporary Supreme Commander and charged him with the task of resurrecting Optimus Prime via the Zodiac, as he believed Prime was the only one capable of stopping the new menace.
