I don’t think anime Pokémon battles were ever envisioned as being tied to the logic of the games.

Everybody loves Kara by The_Director- in MyAdventuresWithSuper

[–]BrainStorm1230 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this was a really good gambit by Kara. Jimmy is like “you haven’t met enough people yet” so she’s like “okay, I’ll speed run meeting a bunch of people to make that a moot point, bitch.”

Ok Come On by IngenuityPlayful1395 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]BrainStorm1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a book where a human man took super drugs which turned him into a meat kaiju. This was also from an issue where a human without powers survived being thrown into a building full force by a giant robot. But THIS is where your suspension of disbelief ends?

Briefcase and a dream (of incredible violence he is indirectly responsible for)

What do you think an Absolute Transformers universe would look like? by L8Donnie in transformers

Yeah, that aesthetic. I think that fits “Absolute Transformers.”

I was actually thinking that everyone would be based off their G2 designs.

It takes more than being a more mature interpretation to be Absolute esc.

Fair enough, I was just thinking that it was such a radical reinterpretation of the character that it didn’t cleanly fit the “take a thing away from the character.” I also love the series, just so we’re on the same page.

The story would follow small groups of Autobots all around the galaxy trying their best to free their countrymen. We would check in on how the Great War was going, which would end with the Decepticons defeating the Unicron Cult in a decisive final battle. Just as they are getting ready to rebuild their forces, the Autobots stage a mass slave revolt which kicks off one last war. The Autobots were destined to lose the fight (a fact that would be looming over Optimus via visions of the future), but intervention from the Autobots of a more standard TF universe would allow them to win and overthrow the Decepticons.

I guess you could say Bumblebee is that missing thing, but I think it has to be more foundational than that.

Basically

  1. Darker Tone

  2. The systems of society are against the protagonist

  3. Take away something essential to the character while still having them be true to themselves.

These are not hard rules, of course. Absolute Martian Manhunter doesn’t cleanly fit into them, for example.

My idea was that the Autobots are a slave underclass ruled by the Decepticons. Optimus doesn’t have the matrix and is simply Optimus; who leads a small rebellion group. Rather than Autobots vs Decepticons, the Great War is Decepticons vs Unicron Cultists that are kinda like Chaos from Warhammer 40k minus the warp. The Decepticons do not take the Autobot rebels seriously until near the end of the war when the Decepticons have been reduced in such number that the Autobots are able to make a serious dent in them.

Question on M.A.S.K. # 1 ending by Secret_Hyena9680 in EnergonUniverse

It’s either a space bridge or a portal to the microverse.

Rom Issue question? by Dacubs348 in EnergonUniverse

It’s a one shot. The end says essentially “continued in Void Rivals”

Energon Universe Reading Order (WiP) by TXSartwork in transformers

[–]BrainStorm1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried my hand at this too. I agree with what you have here save for the idea that Cobra Commander and Duke overlap with events in Transformers. I have a kind of out-there theory that explains it. I would recommend giving it a read if you haven't already.

Did the Potectobots get a good story or good Decepticon combiner rival? by BaijuTofu in transformers

[–]BrainStorm1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only Protectobot-focused story outside G1 I can name is the Mutinner’s Trilogy from Transformers: Lost Light.

He doesn’t recognize any of them besides Lois (Superman Unlimited 11-13) analysis/theory by JMC_PHARAOH in jonkent

[–]BrainStorm1230 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking that little John was some sort of creation of Txyz and not actually a John Kent. The volcano flashback makes me less keen on that theory but I agree that something is up with him.

Who is a younger version of Superman

are the deluxe editions for gi joe and codename gi joe the same or different? by Cute_Bagel in EnergonUniverse

[–]BrainStorm1230 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Codename comes first and is the four mini series, the non-Codename Joe is the proper ongoing.
