Transformers: Wings Universe

The Wings of Honor continuity is a Generation 1 universe based loosely on the original cartoon. It has been depicted in Fun Publications comics and prose stories, the first of which was titled "Wings of Honor".

Overview

Most of the Wings of Honor stories are set in Cybertron's distant past, at the outbreak of the Great War. Some action also occurs in a nebulously modern setting, but so far only as a framing device. In one of those instances, Nexus Prime declares that this universe has some sort of importance to him and his quest, though he doesn't know exactly what.

The historical tales feature a young Kup alongside mostly characters who never appeared in the cartoon. So far, this has allowed the writers to avoid problems of relative age, since Kup is supposed to be significantly older than almost everyone in the present day. And most of the familiar characters in that early timeframe are either also old or have an excuse.
