Reaching the Omega Point
From MediaWiki
Reaching the Omega Point was the Transformers convention-exclusive storyline which ran from BotCon 1998-2000. It's part of the 3H Productions comic continuity, which is itself an extension of the Beast Wars and Beast Machines cartoons.
Short Summary
Time-travel wackiness in the Beast Wars era precipitates a crisis in time, as dark warriors from an apocalyptic future travel back to preserve the events leading up to their timeline.
The Story
- Visitations - A voice-actor play, acts as a prologue for Reaching the Omega Point.
- Apelinq's War Journals - Short journal entries from Apelinq's point-of-view.
- Herald, Covenant, Schism, Paradox - A four part text story.

Trivia/Oddities
- 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.
