Steel Wind appeared in the story The New World. After the explosion that caused the death of Modus Prime, Steel Wind responsed by looking for survivors while dropping fire-retardant bombs. He later noted that the beacon calling the Autobots and Decepticons back to Cybertron had been jammed. When Hacksaw went to investigate he ordered the Clear Skies Team follow him 6 kilometers away in a holding pattern in case he needed help. When it was revealed that Broadside was behind the attack the Clear Skies Team sided against him.[2]
