I know Aaron Archer made Unicron, but I don't think he made Primus.

This is the best answer (although I doubt that Archer made Unicron, but I really don't know).

omg... this thread has gone on for two pages and nobody has submitted the correct answer.

 

Everyone just slap yourselves silly right now. I'm serious. Do it. Slap harder. Make it hurt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Done it? Why not?!? DO IT!!! 

 

 

 

 

Good.

 

Now go grab your copy of US#74 ("The Void!"). Now class, open to the second page of the comic story - the one with the double-spread of Primus-possessed Xaaron yammering. Read the fourth speech bubble spoken by Primus on that page.

 

There is your origin of Primus.

 

...bloody Americans...

I know the answer!!

 

HasTak!

i gave the one one that was in the legacy of unicron book. and for those who dont have that comic it woud be more helpful to just say how he was created. personally i dont like the bib bang version as it sound like a scientist has just tried to incorporate his ideas into a story. the infinate heralds one of good and one of evil is much better way of explaining it. they had physical forms and destroyed each other sending that last of their sparks into planets. primus is smaller because he decded to use some of his energy to create the transformers. as to megatron and optimus beeing brothers thats wrong orion pax was changed to optimus  designed to be megatrons equal to stop him. optimus brother would be RID scourge as optimus was scanned and became the main image. also ultra magnus is in the sense they were created at the same time.

It's turtles all the way down!

 

OK, I guess that 'joke' needs some explanation. If someone created a god, then who in turn created the creator? And who created him? It's similar to how people used to think about how the Earth was shaped. Like in Discworld, they used to believe the Earth was a disk, which stood on 4 elephants, which in turn stood on the back of a turtle. But what is the turtle standing on? Well, it's turtles all the way down! Asking who created a god is pointless, because it starts an endless line of causes, without a first cause. That's why the tought of having only one ultimate god, one single First Cause, or Unmoving Mover is so attractive, because it eliminates that problem.

I know the answer!!

 

HasTak!

Simple and correct

Actually, HasTak had nothing to do with it... well, not G1 Primus anyway. That character was created by Simon Furman. Yeah okay, Takara made a limited G1 Primus toy, fine... but that was in recent years.

 

'Zakath: regarding the whole turtle thing -- the comics does specifically mention how Primus was created. Remember that Transformer theology is part Judeo-Christianity, part Greco-Roman mythology and part Vedic Hinduism. ;)

verywell but remember young padawan the turtle is a hero in a half-shell....TURTLE POWER

So what Goki is trying to say is that all modern day religions are sects of Transformerism?

The One created both Primus and Unicron.

i remember one transformers book introduce about like this
