Born as Orion Pax, the robot eventually known as Optimus Prime was the overall main protagonist IDW Publishing's Transformers series. Beginning as a law officer unafraid to stand up for justice, Optimus became a great and powerful military leader who held the line against Megatron's Decepticons on Cybertron and across the galaxy. As the first legitimate Prime in many ages, Optimus Prime is revered by many and reviled by some, but always a powerful presence, in or out of battle.
