Reaching the Omega Point was the Transformers convention-exclusive storyline released at BotCon between 1998 and 2000. It is part of the 3H Productions comic continuity, which is an extension of the Beast Wars and Beast Machines cartoons.
Overview
Apelinq accidentally time-travels from Beast Machines-era Cybertron back to the 2nd year of the Beast Wars. Representatives from an even more distant future where evil reigns follow him to ensure events critical to their time proceed undisturbed...
The Story
- Visitations - A voice-actor play performed at BotCon 1998; it acts as a prologue for Reaching the Omega Point.
- Herald, Covenant, Schism, Paradox - A four part text story, released as part of the BotCon 1999 convention brochure.
- Apelinq's War Journals - Short journal entries from Apelinq's point-of-view, released online in 1999-2000.
- Terminus - A comic book, detailing the conclusion of the story, released at BotCon 2000.
- Departure - A comic book released at BotCon 2001. Apelinq briefly summarizes the events of Omega Point, and reveals how he escapes with Windrazor.
Notes
- Apelinq continued to influence the course of events in the subsequent Universe, Transformers Collectors' Club, and Classics official fiction. Yes, all of those vignettes, spread over about a decade, unite into one long, very complicated story.
- Botcon.com presents Herald as chapter 4 of Reaching the Omega Point. The BotCon 2000 comic's presentation places it (more sensibly) as a prequel.
- The name Reaching the Omega Point was not christened until Botcon 1999, but is retroactively applied to the Botcon 1998 script, which served as the storyline's opening act.
