Skybound Energon Universe (Primax 623.14 Gamma)

[Megatron]

Sorry, I made a mistake. The time jump is between #4 and #5, not #3 and #4.
I haven't read anything other but Cobra Commander, but I read the article in the Transformers Wiki and it says that the reference in issue #5 is to the events of Duke.

ok so probably after as if i'm not wrong the G.I. Joe story from the Energon Universe Annual takes place between #4-5. So with CC we're probably Post-Duke from the beginning, or maybe Duke #1-5 is set at the same time as CC #1-4.

I'll see how it goes, first all place Duke and CC in release order, then if there aren't any other references i'll place first whole Duke miniseries and then CC for simplicity.

The idea is for Cobra Commander and Duke to be creating G.I. Joe and Cobra in parallel, right? So I would think that, unless noted, their time skips are simultaneous. Could it be like this?
-Duke #1/Cobra Commander #1-4
-(Timeskip)
-Duke #2-5
-Cobra Commander #5

there's still the megatron problem, cos yk, Cobra-La has to find him, tho know that the main action of duke, starts after the time skip.

Before that Duke just resigns from the U.S. Army, as he comes at least one month after his appearence in Transformers.

Also keep in mind that i didn't finished neither Duke or Cobra Commander yet, so probably you're right.

But yeah we have this issue.

As for the idea, infact i have taken all the miniseries of G.I. Joe has to been the same series:

Issue #1, Duke Part One
Issue #2, Cobra Commander Part One
Issue #3, Duke Part Two
Issue #4, Cobra Commander Part Two

etc...

That's the best in "parallel" I can do, Cos placing CC #1-4 at the same time of Duke issue #1 is impossible as nothing happens before the time skip and the events after the timeskip are so tight that it can't have 4 numbers happen at the same time.

I guess the G.I. Joe section is gonna be "fun" (crying inside)

I haven't read anything, so don't take what as say as accurate. Continue as you want, I'll come back when I read the issues. Tbh I just told you about helping you with CC to have an excuse to talk about this universe.

Dw i appreciate your help!

You mean the new Marvel Ultimate Universe? Earth-6160?

Correct.

Guys I decided to place this timeline on hold, becouse we don't have a single clues on the years they take place. We know how much time passes between stories but not when they're set, so i'll wait for a canon date to continue this (but dw i'm still collecting the issues in the meantime)

This is the closest to a timeline we can get.

[Megatron]

Read The New EU comics that were released in Italy, and updated the simplified order. Still not an hard date, so no timeline yet.

Skybound has to really pick a time frame for the Cybetronian Civil War we went like this:

Millions of years --> Thousands --> Millions --> EONS....

Guys seriously.

But aside from that, all very solid reads, so here's my phase I and Phase II rankings:

Trasformers > Void Rivals > Duke > Cobra Commander

Trasformers > Void Rivals > Destro > Scarlett

OVERRAL

Trasformers Vol 2 > Trasformers Vol 1 > Void Rivals Vol 2 > Void Rivals Vol. 1 > Duke > Destro > Scarlett > Cobra Commander

for some marks the titles for now goes from a 10/10 to a 7/10.

Uhm... Robert Kirkman and Jorge Corona?

So after DWJ we get the Team from Invincible to write and draw Transformers... interesting.

btw I realized one thing while I was sleeping:

Megatron in Transformers #4:

View attachment 2999

Megatron in Cobra Commander #1

View attachment 3000

So idk if you noticed, but Megatron in CC looks less damaged than in transformers, so ig that it could be an error, but since Megs is in the ice in transformers, maybe Cobra-La found him and started to repair him a lil before getting into his memories? If we take this theory as canon it could solify a 2023 placement for Transformers VOL. 1 and 2024 for Cobra Commander.

What do you think?

returning to this after reading the special it could be that Megs ends up there after he escapes Cobra-La as he's pretty damaged.

I've heard that this universe is pretty good. I do like that they're adding original IPs into the same universe as their iterations of the Transformers and G.I. Joe franchises.

it's always top 1 or 2 in the sales department. But yeah it's pretty good, you should try it, really! Idk tho if you can still find the volumes somewhere.

Ok guys, In my country Void Rivals Vol. 3 will be released in October 2025, so I'll return on this soon!

I like that we can designate these based on how the previous ones were with dates and mediums.

I feel like Hasbro/TFWiki shouldn't abandon that because of the TF Club thing that designated them previously is gone...
