Synopsis
Somewhere in the depths of space, seven balls of glowing energy streak out of a void...
On the reformatted techno-organic Cybertron, Rook reports on the return to Cybertron of some long-lost travelers. After some banter from Cheetor and Rattrap, the ship lands, and its passengers disembark: the long-lost Autobots Trailbreaker, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Shadow Striker and Roulette. Sideswipe is shocked by the changes to Cybertron, while Sunstreaker just basks in the adulation.
Without warning, what appears to be fireworks strikes the five Autobots, as well as Blackarachnia and Silverbolt, and whisks them away, leaving a bewildered Rook behind. The seven abductees materialize in an unknown location. Blackarachnia notes that the place is crawling with evil... and a booming voice welcomes them to The Pit!
Within Cybertron, Primus and Alpha Trion confer on the Enemy's rising plans.
Within the Pit, Silverbolt is painfully rebuilt back into his Beast Wars-era body. Soon he is reunited with the others; Sideswipe and Sunstreaker have likewise been recreated into new forms. The group travels across a thin bridge over a bubbling cauldron... from which emerge hordes of fiery demon-like creatures. Though they fight well, they are soon captured by the weight of numbers, and brought into a nearby arena.
As the group is led into cages, Blackarachnia resists -- and is promptly bashed into place by Tankor. The other watching Generals explain; Obsidian is from an alternate Cybertron where he seized power. As for the Tigerhawk lookalike, know that he is Razorclaw, that his reality is not yours, and while he shares Tigerhawk's dual spark and Vok heritage... he is not he!
Obsidian explains that they are here simply to fight and die. As an example, two Autobots who have already succumbed to the madness aer turned loose on each other. After a fierce battle, Smokescreen is destroyed by Smokescreen, his Spark consumed by Unicron.
On Cybertron, Primus feels a part of himself devoured. He and Alpha Trion call forth their champion... the revived Optimus Primal!
Errors
- Primal is colored like his original toy; later issues will show him in his Universe color scheme.
- Rattrap's eyeballs. Guh.
Items of note
- Razorclaw may well be Rockbuster, as the video-pack redeco of Razorclaw is nearly indistinguishable from Rockbuster.
