Hot Rod initially went to Mobius to film Alien Hunt!, but it turned out that Meteorfire was actually a magephobic Terrorcon named Sideways. After learning the truth of what he percieved to be his greatest failures, he rejoined the Autobots and became a much more level-headed soldier. His speed has helped the Autobots on numerous occasions. He’s currently the head of the Velocitronian Armed Forces and lives in Soldier’s Point in the Northern Track Sector of Velocitron’s mobile capital of Delta City. While Override races through the sands of Velocitron, Hot Rod is a total city boy and races around them instead. Because of meeting an alternate future of himself where he inherited the Matrix, he’s affectionately called Rodimus to his friends. If the Author has his way, he won’t be running to any more goals.
