I vote that all links for Godzilla on this wiki actually go to Hojoni. --ItsWalky 06:13, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. Further, I suggest merging the Big Green Fire-Snortin' Lizard article into this one, while of course maintaining the notes that it's only supposition that Hojoni is the lizard being referred to by Nicolas. --Steve-o 16:31, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Nick maystill eb referign to Godzilla, and Hojoni is a fictional movie based on Godzilla's real-world rampages. (But I don't remember that naked woman in the Godzilla series...) -Derik 21:43, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Right, but, the point -- partially in jest, and partially from a strict reading of the stories -- is that there is no evidence for a Godzilla within the universe of the Marvel Transformers series, just as there is no evidence that Nicholas is the head of this organization called SHIELD or that Spider-Man got his powers from a spider bite. Supposing the subject of Nicholas' comment to be Godzilla requires applying metatextual elements from outside the Transformers multiverse. Supposing it to be Hojoni is a much more common metatextual statement within the TF multiverse. Now, yes, because we read other comic books we know that Nicholas' last name is Fury and blah blah blah. But we could surmise the existence of all sorts of Marvel Earth-616 entities in the comics universe at the slightest hint that they might exist --like, hey, the Neo Nights are kind of like mutants, I guess the X-Men exist in that universe. I can say without a hint of joking around that I think that is a bad trend to start. It is both "safer" and IMO way funnier to treat Hojoni as the only known giant green fire-breating lizard in Transformers. --Steve-o 05:02, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Neither do I. Where's the category for naked people? :) --Ratbat 04:24, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
"Category: Transformers" --ItsWalky 05:07, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
I think it's clear that "Nicholas" was meant to be Nick Fury, and that the lizard he was referring to was meant to at least be a refrence to Godzilla, if not literally. Connecting the comment by Nicholas to Hojoni would be pure speculation. Crockalley 15:01, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
It's a running gag on this wiki to (for the most part) pretend ignorance about MU characters in TF comics beyond their appearance in the TF comics themselves.
This is not entirely withotu merit- the TF comcis are nto set in Earth 616. They're set in some other Earth that has some characters from 616, and some universe elements, but it not 616.
(The Marvel TFU has mutants, for isntance, but does nto appear to have an X-Men.) -69.88.91.218 17:29, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
