[edit] Dreamwave Productions

Skyhopper appeared in the Dreamwave Micromaster limited series. In this series Skyhopper was revealed to be a formerly larger Decepticon who was converted into a Micromaster. He and his commander Skystalker left Cybertron and became rivals to the Autobot Micromasters Countdown and Groundpounder. In issue 2 of this series Skystalker and Skyhopper returned to Cybertron after years in space conquoring planets. After meeting with Shockwave the pair of Micromasters disabled him and set up the larger Autobot and Decepticon forces into a fight that left both sides drained of energy.
