That deserves an award for best post EVER!

Anyhow, look at it this way, Optimus Prime commanded the Autobot army for almost 8 million years! Rodimus turns up and has some seriously big boots to fill, in the cartoon yes they retake Cybertron but the Decepticons then re-establish themselves on Earth, take Chaar and launch several succesful mini invasions of Cybertron. In the comics the Decepticons are battled into a stalemate on Cybertron and barely contained on Earth. Not to mention he loses Galvatron in Earths past an needs Optimus Prime to help stop a disaster destroying space and time! Oh and there was that time when the Quintessons captured Autobot City and strung up all the de-activated Autobots.

Rodimus didnt get it easy in his tenure as commander so do you blame him for being so self doubting?
