## Publisher's Summary

*THEY CAME FROM MICROSPACE! What terror reaches through the tendrils of entropy into our universe—and why does ROM want to kill it? Meanwhile, M.A.S.K.’s MATT TRAKKER makes a startling discovery about the TRANSFORMERS—but will G.I. JOE’s SCARLETT believe him?*

## Plot

In Microspace, the crew of the Heliopolis enter the Entropy Cloud and are amazed to discover they are not dead. They are contacted by Baron Hraal Karza, who followed them into the cloud, but due to time running differently inside the cloud, has been studying it for years. During this time, he discovered the creator of Microspace – Micronus Prime!

On Governor's Island, Matt Trakker questions everything he's been told about the Cybertronians, while Kup reveals to Vanessa Warfield and Sly Rax about the spacebridge causing the Ore-13 to explode.

In Autobot City, the Autobots and Rom exchange information, and reveal that Windblade has recently discovered the existence of Microspace. The Titan serving as Autobot City is linked to the universe. Aileron arrives and tells of Kup's capture by the Humans.

Doc briefs Scarlett and Mainframe on her examination of the bodies of the Joes killed by Rom – they are not Human. Scarlett contacts the one person she trusts for help.

Karza communicated with his Earth-bound ally, and determines that events are moving too slowly. Every time he transports Ore-13 to Microspace, it causes explosions on Earth. Opening the spacebridge to beginning pulling in more Ore-13, Rom finds that he can control the flow of ore through the spacebridge, causing it to detonate on the other side. Rom believes that sending the Ore-13 to Microspace is the only way to keep it out of the hands of the Dire Wraiths to stop them conquering the universe. The Autobots oppose his plan, knowing it means death for the inhabitants of Microspace. They manage to convince Rom that causing the deaths of others is too high a price to pay.

On the advice of a Time Traveler, the crew of the Heliopolis fly through the spacebridge to Earth – only to find that they are tiny compared to the inhabitants of the world! They also come face to face with Scarlett's trusted ally ... Snake Eyes!
