Prime is a rank of highest distinction in many Transformers continuities. Typically, it is used as the identification for the leader of the Autobots, something that is bestowed only on those that carry the Matrix of Leadership within them. It is retroactively derived from Primus, the creator of the Transformers.

- The idea of Prime being a title/rank has its fullest expression here. A direct lineage of Creation Matrix bearers is established, each taking on a derivation of the name of their god Primus: Prima, Prime Nova, Sentinel Prime, Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus and Rodimus Prime.

abstract
| - Prime is a rank of highest distinction in many Transformers continuities. Typically, it is used as the identification for the leader of the Autobots, something that is bestowed only on those that carry the Matrix of Leadership within them. It is retroactively derived from Primus, the creator of the Transformers.
- The idea of Prime being a title/rank has its fullest expression here. A direct lineage of Creation Matrix bearers is established, each taking on a derivation of the name of their god Primus: Prima, Prime Nova, Sentinel Prime, Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus and Rodimus Prime. Of note is that the name Prime has no real necessary relation to Autobot leadership here. Optimus Prime becomes a Prime long before he becomes the overall Autobot Commander. Rather, Prime is a religious title (as the Creation Matrix is a religious artifact: a relic of their god). The closest human analogue to a Prime might be the Pope.
