Editing Biotech Unbound

:''Biotech Unbound is a corporation in the [[Animated]] [[continuity family]]''

Maybe being yourself used to be good enough for you--but how many years ago was that?  As [[Detroit]] gets ever more high-tech, do you feel more low-down?  Are you more tired than you used to be?  Older than you used to be?  Less proud of what you see in the mirror than you used to be?  Afraid you're going to get passed by in life as the rest of the world favors someone newer or younger... or worse, favors someone who isn't even "someone" because they're a rotten inhuman [[Sumdac Systems|Sumdac]] [[automaton|machine]] out to steal your job?!  If any of these symptoms sound familiar, talk to your doctor about the unique biotechnology upgrades available through '''Biotech Unbound'''.

Side effects?  ''What'' side effects?

Biotech Unbound was started by [[Prometheus Black]] to appeal to citizens who felt threatened by Sumdac Systems' omnipresent robotics fleet.  Black had developed a treatment regime consisting of cybernetic implants and steroid injections that would restore strength and vitality to weak or aged humans.  At least some of this biotech expertise was gained by experimenting on prison inmates.  Black successfully bio-upgraded a frail elderly man into the hulking [[Colossus Rhodes]], but when Rhodes then went on a destructive rampage, public confidence in Biotech Unbound plummeted, and Black's chief financier--Sumdac System's own [[Porter C. Powell]], playing both sides of the fence--pulled out.  The business was ruined... and after Black transformed himself into the acid-spewing supervillain Meltdown and was arrested, all BU assets went under lock and key as well.{{storylink|Total Meltdown}}

Powell had retained possession of some of Biotech Unbound's remaining laboratories and equipment.  When [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Grimlock (Animated)|Grimlock]] were ordered by [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]] to fetch [[Meltdown's genetic modifier]] from his old lab or watch [[Bumblebee (Animated)|their]] [[Prowl (Animated)|friends]] die, the Autobots attempted to retrieve the device but at first were opposed by Powell.  He had hoped to continue to profit from Black's experiments, but Grimlock convinced him he should first ''really'' hope to stay alive--and soon the Autobots were on their way with the last piece of Biotech Unbound machinery known to have existed.  Shortly thereafter, it was accidentally destroyed by Meltdown himself.{{storylink|Black Friday}}

==Trivia==
* Using prisoners as guinea pigs?  Uhh, yeah, this series really was just Teen Titans kid stuff, yeah.  
* In "Black Friday," the Biotech Unbound lab appears to actually have been inside [[Sumdac Tower]] all along.  As absent-minded as [[Isaac Sumdac]] occasionally showed himself to be, this is still hard to believe; more plausible is that the lab had originally been somewhere else and that Powell rebuilt it after taking possession of what was left.  
* "[[Prometheus Unbound]]"?
