Talk:Chaos Theory Part 2

Nebulans and hair... Just because they're bald doesn't mean they don't have hair. Zarak sported facial hair, and we certainly didn't see enough of their anatomy to assume they wouldn't have body hair. --Detour 13:53, 13 August 2011 (EDT)

True. Add that to the fact that I somehow forgot that the story takes place millions of years ago and... yeah. I've no objection if you wanna remove it. --Apoc 14:57, 14 August 2011 (EDT)

Is the guy talking to Sentinel Prime a pre-war Ironfist? 125.161.49.78 08:25, 15 August 2011 (EDT)

That seems extremely unlikely. --ItsWalky 08:28, 15 August 2011 (EDT)

What is an "Autobot" ?

As Opti... er, Orion Pax puts it himself, the name "Autobots" refers to every single Transformer, including Senators. The logo already exists by that time, so I think the Senators and others, including Ratbat and the thugs, should be classified in the "Autobot" category. Or, if we consider that the term "Autobot" mentionned by Orion Pax refers to an obsolete definition, not applicable in the past, Whirl and Sentinel Prime should be removed from that category, as the faction itself does not already exist, nor they appear in the present scenes. 82.238.12.114 17:00, 22 August 2011 (EDT)

That's an interesting point. The Autobrand, as you mentioned, already exists. So it's kind of wrong to remove Sentinel Prime. He, in all likelihood, doesn't fall under the category of "Autobot" that Orion Pax mentioned, but he used and fought under the Autobrand. The comic seems to suggest that Orion Pax uses the obscure term Autobot to refer to Cybertronians who are working for change against the regime of the Prime and Senate, yet he both becomes Prime and uses the symbol of the Prime and Senate for his faction in the war, suggesting a sense of continuity between his Autobots and the Senate's government. Yet he used the term Autobot to refer to an anti-Senate movement. Really, the whole "what is an Autobot?" thing in the IDW-verse is a mess. It's clear from All Hail Megatron that the Autobots were supposed to be a faction that pre-dates the Great War by hundreds of millions of years. Sentinel Prime and his security forces use the Autobrand, the Autobrand appears at the base of a statue of Nova Prime, etc... Yet here they have Orion Pax pull the term out of his exhaust port in an effort to make the IDW-verse more like the Aligned Continuity, which results in the contradictions mentioned previously.--Agent Zero 15:33, 25 August 2011 (EDT)
