Synopsis:
Kevin is haunted by nightmares of a hulking monster. He awakes with chest pains and sees an evil face appear in the bathroom mirror. At school that morning, Kevin witnesses Coach Meyer grope his crush, Kelly. Enraged at this abuse, Kevin literally explodes, transforming into Prime! Not knowing how to control his powers, Kevin bursts out of the school building. Shooting into the sky, he accidently collides with an airplane, severing one of the wings. He catches the plane and brings it safely to the ground. Realizing the power at his command, Kevin heads back to the school to confront Coach Meyer.

Notes:
Direct lead-in to Prime #1.
