Fiction[edit | edit source]
Challenge of the GoBots cartoon[edit | edit source]
During the first Renegade revolt the three High Protectors led the successful Guardian defence of GoBotron, driving the miscreants from the planet. However, in the aftermath the trio had differing fortunes. Of the three aims of the Guardian Council, Cy-Kill took it upon himself to purge the remaining Renegades from their new base on Xeros, Zeemon went to tackle the new threat of the Parthian raiders by attacking their home planet, while Leader-1 selflessly took the job of guarding the mines on Garleon. Both Cy-Kill and Zeemon were unsuccessful, getting ambushed and forced to retreat, while Leader-1 successfully defended Garleon with help from Treds and the worker Turbo. Zeemon opted to step down as a result of an injury sustained on Parthis while Cy-Kill became embittered after his defeat and ultimately freed the prisoners taken by Leader-1 - Crasher and Cop-Tur - and defected to the Renegades along with Fitor and Dart. This left Leader-1 as the de facto sole leader of the Guardians. Despite his claims no GoBot should command another he then went on to command other GoBots as Guardian leader. "Et Tu, Cy-Kill"
