Soon, my pretty, soon...

In 2356, as he lay in a medbay in Autobot City, Rodimus Prime told a student all about the nature of evil...

Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

Rodimus told the student of Scorponok's evil in using the Autobots' own rules of conduct to make them fight his battle for him. The student was fascinated and prompted Prime to tell him about Galvatron. When he heard how that Decepticon leader had sought to tarnish the Matrix and almost unleashed Unicron, the student demanded to learn more about the dark god, but Rodimus kept him in suspense as he first described Shockwave's cold emotionlessness and Megatron's disregard for the lives of his own troops.

When Rodimus eventually recounted the third coming of Unicron, his student was contemptuous of his version of events, accusing Rodimus of making it up as he went along. Tearing off his Autobot insignia, the student told Prime that he would seek out Unicron for himself and then show Rodimus once and for all the true nature of evil. Rodimus realized to his horror that his own words had been subconsciously shaped by Unicron's spirit, in a ploy to turn the listening student to the dark side. Aspects of Evil!

Notes

  • The student was never seen again.
