Nova Storm is a Decepticon from the EarthSpark continuity family.

Following the war, however, she and her partner Skywarp have fallen on hard times, and are doing whatever it takes to survive... including making some very bad deals with some very shady characters. Nova Storm isn't very thrilled about their current lot, but what else can she do? It beats being in G.H.O.S.T. custody, right?

Part of the Decepticon army that travelled to Earth, Nova Storm fell under Shockwave's command when Megatron defected to the Autobots. When the Autobots attempted to return the AllSpark to Cybertron, Optimus Prime hitched a ride on Skywarp's jet mode. Though Nova Storm attempted to shoot the Prime off, she instead caused Skywarp to crash. When Megatron claimed the AllSpark, Nova Storm and Starscream tackled him down, but failed to prevent him from launching the AllSpark through the space bridge. Warzone

Stranded on Earth following the destruction of the space bridge, Skywarp and Nova Storm fell into the employ of Dr. Mandroid, being ordered to bring him Optimus Prime's left arm. The two attacked Optimus and Megatron at a public relations event at G.H.O.S.T. headquarters, the ensuing brawl being broadcast on live television. The two put up a very good fight, but ultimately ended up in the dirt, Nova staring down the barrel of Megatron's fusion cannon. Skywarp used a moment's distraction to teleport out from beneath Prime's axe, freeing Nova Storm and flying off. Upon returning to an angry Mandroid, the human decided that their next mission would be as bait.

Using holograms to pass himself and his Arachnamechs off as G.H.O.S.T., Mandroid lured Megatron and Dot Malto to a rail yard where the Seekers were pretending to be prisoners. Skywarp once again teleported away with Nova in tow, and the Arachnamechs leapt and subdued Megatron, leaving the Seekers to tow him away to Mandroid's base. To bring Optimus Prime to him, Mandroid gave Skywarp Malto's badge to show to Optimus. Upon picking up Optimus' signal, the Seekers travelled to the Emberstone's cave. As the humans and Terrans ran back into the cave, the Seekers unleashed a payload of Arachanmechs and took on Optimus and Bumblebee. Once again the pair were beaten, but Nova launched a salvo of rockets at the cave entrance, collapsing the tunnel. But it wasn't enough to stop Optimus from locking the pair in cuffs and leaving them for G.H.O.S.T. to pick up.Age of Evolution, Part 1

Somehow, Nova Storm was able to evade custody, and eventually made her way to Philadelphia and its illegal underground "Bot Brawl" tournament. Ultimately she lost her bout, and was hauled away to be stripped for parts. Home, Part 1
