The Transformers guardian Omega Supreme has mysteriously summoned all the Transformers to Earth yo join forces and protect the planet from the arrival of the world-devouring entity know as Unicron."
As Dreamwave spiraled towards bankruptcy, James McDonough (formerly "Brad Mick") and Adam Patyk were fired, and Sarracini was slated to return to the Generation One title starting with issue 11, but Dreamwave died before the issue would be properly solicited.
