Multiversal Singularity Theory

Multiversal Singularity Theory

This is my all-in-one theory that I have developed that both fits together the bits and pieces of established origin material within the Transformers Multiverse to establish a concrete origin story as well as explain the existence of Multiversally Singular entities in congruency, despite several seemingly contradictory depictions.

First, the Origin story:

Before time, before space, before the Multiverse existed, there was The One, a being of perfect unity between Chaos and Order. The One seemingly created the Multiverse, though not all at once, but one Universe at a time, with each new Universe being born of a “Big Bang”. The One exists as the sentient Core of the Multiverse, and by extension, the sentient Core of each Universe within the Multiverse, with each Universal Core existing as a “node” of The One, all connected to the original Multiversal Core.

Though seemingly all-powerful and though having created the Multiverse, The One was still curious as to what existed within its creation. In order to explore the newly created space, The One created the astral being, known as Unicron, who like The One, was a seemingly perfect balance of Chaos and Order.

Based on given information, it is exceedingly likely that the first Universe created within the Multiverse, or at least the first one that Unicron was sent to explore was Primax 984.0 Gamma (The G1 Marvel Comics Universe). It would appear that Unicron was not a complete perfect balance of Chaos and Order, as the Chaos within him had begun to overtake the Order. Unicron began consuming the new Universe-not just physical matter, but time, space, and reality itself, so the the Universe itself would cease to exist on all accounts, returning it to the Void, the nothingness that existed prior to the Multiverse. Perhaps Unicron simply thought to be unified with the Void would be the perfect balance of Chaos and Order, and existence simply sought to unbalance those natures, with one always trying to overcome the other.

Unicron eventually was successful in consuming almost the entirety of the Universe, though there were bits left over that he missed. As Unicron slumbered within the partial Void, the remainders of the Universe were drawn together over the course of trillions of years. Theses fragments of the Old Realms eventually collided, initiating a cosmic event known as the “Big Crunch”, in which all existing matter is supercondensed into an infinitesimal size, which then gives way to the “Big Bang”, birthing the current Universe (the one in which the G1 Marvel Comics stories actually take place).

The ripple in the Universe’s Core through this Universe’s rebirth was felt by The One, who noticed what Unicron has done. Foreseeing that Unicron would eventually awaken and continue his consumption of reality, which would sure eventually extend to the rest of the Multiverse, The One sought to give life to a champion to oppose Unicron. From Unicron, himself, The One separated the Order from the Chaos, creating Primus, the astral being who perfectly embodied Order, leaving behind Unicron, the now complete embodiment of Chaos.

Eventually, as anticipated, Unicron awoke, this time being driven by pure Chaos, he persisted to continue his original goal in consuming all of existence. Over the course of billions of years, as the Universe evolved, Primus had aligned himself with a collection of other astral beings known as the Light Gods, to which he had earned himself the place amongst them as their Lord. Conversely, Unicron also became affiliated with astral beings, the Dark Gods, also known as the Lords of Chaos. The two sets of gods seemingly opposed each other by nature. Whether or not the gods were created by Primus and Unicron, respectively, is unknown, though it is highly likely.

Whether or not the armies of Light and Dark clashed more than once is unknown, but what is known is the legendary battle between Primus and Unicron. If the Light Gods and Dark Gods had not already perished at this point through earlier conflict, they all seemingly died over the course of this battle, though the possibility of some surviving is not completely ruled out. (The Chronarchitect, also known as the Time Walker, may be a surviving Light God, as he does strongly support Primus’ Grand Plan to defeat Unicron. Other gods or godlike beings may also be remnants or descendants of the Light and Dark Gods: Devil Z, the Elder Gods, the God of the Maximals, Horus, Hytherion, the Miketsu God, the Three Wise Ones, and the Great Xal.)

Primus and Unicron confronted each other and fought on the physical plane. Primus shifted the battle to the astral plane. As the Lord of Light and the Lord of Chaos astrally fought each other, Primus ensured that when they physically manifested, their essences would be trapped within a pair of gargantuan asteroids. Being unaware of Primus’ plan, Unicron fell right into his trap, with both brothers being trapped within two asteroids upon their physical manifestation. Unicron had been defeated...for now. But Primus knew that his brother would return and made preparations. Being aware that Unicron had eventually psionically formed his asteroid tomb into a mechanical planet-consuming world, Primus followed suit, psionically forming his asteroid into the mechanical world that would become known as Cybertron.


This is where the beginning ends. There’s more to the story both for this Universe, specifically, and for the remaining Universes within the Multiverse, but in order to describe these events, the second part of my theory must be explained.


Within the Transformers Multiverse, there exist several beings that are known as Multiversal Singularities. Unlike the many different versions of Optimus Prime, Megatron, etc. in which there are countless individual beings that are incarnations of similar characters, regarding the Multiversally Singular entities, there exists only one throughout the entire Multiverse. Now this would work much better every writer of TF fiction had this in mind when writing about such concepts, but as with many things in TF lore, things that are supposed to be consistent are often times not. In this vein, most of the Multiversally Singular characters have been displayed with contradictory depictions. My theory seeks to both rectify past “errors” without discounting established events and establish a structured framework that allows any future TF fiction, official or fan-fiction, to coincide with this model regardless of how the writer chooses to depict Multiversally Singular characters, allowing for complete creative liberty, regarding those properties.


First, it must be noted who is considered a Multiversal Singularity:

The One (The Source)
Primus
Unicron
Vector Sigma
The Thirteen Original Transformers:
Prima
Vector Prime
Nexus Prime (Nexus Maximus)
Megatronus Prime (The Fallen)
Alpha Trion (sometimes previously known as A3)
Liege Maximo
Solus Prime
Alchemist Prime
Amalgamous Prime
an unnamed beast Prime
an unnamed Mini-con Prime
2 unnamed Primes

I then needed to research the established fiction regarding Multiversally Singular characters.


The One:

Very little has been established about The One. As mentioned in the origin tale above, The One possibly created the Multiverse and proceeds to exist as its sentient Core, extending to individual “nodes” throughout the Multiverse as each Universe’s sentient Core. The One does not appear to act directly upon its creation, having given that authority to Unicron (and by extension, Primus). It also does not appear that The One is immediately aware of events within the Multiverse. It seems that The One had originally created Unicron with the intention of having Unicron return to The One with his findings. Also the Vok claim to be guardians of The One or The Source, carrying out its will.

To note, the Vok have been established as Matrix-purified versions of the Swarm from the G2 Marvel Comics series, seeking to rectify their misdeeds as the Swarm. They have the ability to manipulate the timestream to an unknown extend. The Vok Nebula may or may not be related to the Universal/Multiversal Core, which would coincide with their relation to The One.

It’s also worth mentioning that The One is likely a “member” of the Omniversal Matrix. The exact nature of the Omniversal Matrix is never specified, but it seems safe to assume that it is some form of pantheon for extraordinarily powerful entities throughout the Omniverse, which is the ultimate culmination of all reality and fiction, containing all Multiverses, TF and beyond. It is mentioned that Primus would be allowed to join the Omniversal Matrix if he could ultimately defeat Unicron. It would seem likely that it was The One who instructed Primus of this.

Within the Animated Universe, The Core is part of the Cybertronian Zodiac, representing unity and being assigned the orbital cycle, Chokoneon. From this, it could be implied that Chokon Power (seen in Super-God Masterforce) is related to The One, and perhaps Chokon Power is the original, primordial force that makes up the very essence of existence, with Chichokon (“Earth Super Soul”), Jinchokon (“Human Super Soul”), and Tenchokon (“Earth Super Soul”) being its three forms. Godmasters embody a unity of these three forms or energy, truly making them masters of a godly force.

Primus:

Primus’ original origins can be seen above. The issue of conflict arises from varying origins of Primus or Cybertron throughout the context of different stories.

Within the Japanese G1 Cartoon Continuity, it is established that Primacron’s assistant, The Oracle, was badly damaged after Unicron (Primacron’s creation in this Universe) turned on his “creator”. The Oracle survived through its Essence, encase within a special shell. The Oracle escaped to a barren world and transformed it into a lush, green world. Eventually, The Oracle foresaw that in the future, Primacron would endanger the Universe with Tornedron, and therefore summoned the Primitives from the future in order to instruct them in how to defeat Tornedron. Eventually, The Oracle adopted the name Primus and again foresaw a threat in the future. The Sparkbots had tricked the Kiss Players into gathering fragments of Unicron’s lifeforce. Primus brought the Sparkbots and Kiss Players to the distant past and sealed Unicron’s Dark Essence along with the Sparkbots within prehistoric Earth. Before sending the Kiss Players back to their future, Primus created Brave Maximus to guard Unicron’s Essence. Primus transformed into the golden sphere, Vector Sigma, to act as his interactive consciousness, while he slumbered. As Primus slept, the Quintessons discovered his world, harnessed the powers of Vector Sigma through the Key to Vector Sigma, and mechaformed the world into the mechanical planet now known as Cybertron. The Quintessons also used Vector Sigma to create a race of living, mechanical beings, the Transformers. The Quintessons had also acquired the shell that held The Oracle’s Essence, which eventually was obtained by the Autobots and known as the Autobot Matrix of Leadership.

This is all information that has been established through various sources that are part of the Japanese G1 Cartoon Continuity. Much less has been established for the American G1 Cartoon Continuity, though through sources beyond the cartoon itself, it has been established that Primus does exist in the American G1 Cartoon Continuity, though whether or not his history matches that of his origins in the Japanese G1 Cartoon Continuity is unknown, as those events have never been chronicled as canon outside of the Japanese G1 Cartoon Continuity.

The Beast Era is what adds a new layer to Primus’ history. It is established that Beast Wars follows G1, though it’s never specifically stated which version of G1 it follows. It it my theory that most (if not all) versions of the G1 continuity lead to the Beast Wars. While the core events of the Beast Wars follow those of the BW cartoon, there are several extra sources that preset information that conflicts with each other. For example, the Botcon story Primeval Dawn contradicts IDW’s The Gathering and Ascension. Both of these stories coincide with the events of the BW cartoon, just not with each other. This establishes that the different BW stories outside of the cartoon itself are each part of individual timelines. This is true for the various other Botcon BW comics. Now what this establishes is that each of these different versions of the Beast Wars timeline itself follow a version of G1, but again, it’s never established which version. The cartoon itself draws cue from both the G1 cartoon and the G1 Marvel Comics stories. So while from given information, it can’t be concluded whether the version of BW that includes Primeval Dawn follows the G1 Marvel Comics Universe, but through a series of mix and matching differentiating timelines, it can at least be established that specific versions of G1 lead to specific versions of Beast Wars.

In the Botcon Beast Wars story, Reaching the Omega Point, it is established that in its history, prior to creating the Transformers, Primus experimented with creating robotic life by creating the Covenant on the moon, Protos. It isn’t known which version of G1 he created the Covenant or whether he did in every version. But this does seem to establish that Primus knew he wanted to create life and/or had foreseen that the Quintessons would manipulate his power to create life. Other stories that are connected to a version of Beast Wars that include Primus, obviously establish his existence within that Universe, but again fall into the issue of not knowing which version of G1 it is a part of.

IDW’s G1 Comic Continuity establishes that Primus came into existence as a reaction to an opposite force to himself. (This would likely be Unicron.) Eventually, Primus split into five beings: Primus, the life-giver, Motilus, the death-bringer, Epistemus, the embodiment of knowledge, Solomus, the embodiment of wisdom, and Adaptus, representing change. These five entities were known as the Guiding Hand, and together they created the Cybertronians to inhabit Cybertron (which may or may not have been created by Primus). Mortilus was destroyed, and Primus retreated within Cybertron and became Vector Sigma. Epistemus was eventually stripped bare and formed into a brain module. Solomus was transformed into the Matrix of Leadership. Adaptus was stripped bare and formed into the first Transformation Cog, passing down the gift of transformation.

Within all versions of the Unicron Trilogy, Primus’ activity is pretty straightforward. He simply existed at some point in the past, had the planet Cybertron form as his physical body, and created the Transformers. The Omega Lock and Cyber Planet Key were created through the energy or Primus’ spark. Within the Live-Action Movie Continuity, it is only vaguely established that Primus may or may not exist, and quite possibly was created BY the AllSpark. Primus is never mentioned in the Animated Continuity. Within the Aligned Continuity, it is only known that Primus existed, created the 13, and grants life to the Transformers through the AllSpark.

Now, several of these origins seem to describe very different beginnings for Primus. My theory branches off of the idea that Primus exists simultaneously across the Multiverse in all (or most) Universes as separate “nodes” of the same being, mirroring my explanation to The One. But my theory is not that Primus simply spontaneously “appears” in each Universe that he inhabits, but rather that each extension of him must be “born” into that Universe, which could result in varying origin stories per Universe. In the Japanese G1 Cartoon Continuity (and possibly the American version), Primus was born/created as The Oracle. In the G1 IDW Comic Continuity, Primus seemingly came into existence as Primus, though it’s not very clear how/when. The Unicron Trilogy Continuity and Aligned Continuity are seemingly very similar, with Primus having come into existence at some point. The Live-Action Movie Continuity attempts to establish that the AllSpark predates Primus and is the method in which he came into existence.

It is also worth noting that it is quite possible that upon Primus’ “birth” into a new Universe, that he is not entirely aware of his Multiversally Singular nature or recalls events from other incarnations of himself. This ignorance would explain why certain events that Primus has gained knowledge from would repeat themselves across varying timestreams, such as the successfulness of creating the Covenant possibly several times across different varying timestreams or the eventual betrayal of The Fallen and Liege Maximo in different timelines. How much awareness Primus ever has of other Multiversal extensions of himself is unknown.

This part of my theory isn’t necessarily anything too revolutionary, but it’s pretty fundamental for the remainder of it. This model establishes not so much that there is a “main” Primus somewhere in the Multiverse, and the other incarnations are merely inconsequential “shadows” of himself, but rather each extension is entirely Primus. There does not seem to exist a “hub” version of Primus. This means that is something devastating enough were to happen to Primus in one Universe, his status as a Multiversal axis could potentially endanger the rest of the Multiverse. This is backed up in the Transformers Collectors’ Club Comic in which Unicron’s herald, Ramjet sought to plunge the Cybertron of the Unicron Trilogy (particularly within the continuity of the Cybertron cartoon) into the Unicron Singularity, the black hole formed from Unicron’s destruction following the events of the Energon cartoon. This action would theoretically cause the Cybertrons of every Universe to act as an axis point for the black hole to distort and consume reality.

Unicron:

As with Primus, Unicron’s original origins can be seen above. My theory seeks to also better explain Unicron’s seemingly contradictory origins within certain Universes.

Within the G1 Cartoon Continuity, Primicron is credited with the creation of Unicron. While this may seem like an issue, it has been established that as a Multiversal Singularity, Unicron can exist in all Universes of the Multiverse, but it would appear as though the model of this method differs from Primus. Whereas Primus can simultaneously exist within every Universe that he exists in, Unicron can only exist in one Universe at a time. Unicron has powerful space-time abilities and an ever-evolving quantum map of the Multiverse, allowing him to travel across and between Universes and dimensions according to his own will. In several cases, it appears as though he opts to migrate to another Universe after being “destroyed” in one, though this is not always the case. According to some sources, such as the G1 cartoon, it appears as though Unicron was created rather than appeared from another Universe. My theory merely elaborates that though Unicron can teleport his physical body from on Universe to another, in the event that it is only his Dark Essence traveling through the Multiverse (possibly due to his previous body being destroyed), just as Primus’ extensions must be “born” into new Universes, so does Unicron’s Essence. This would explain how Primacron “created” Unicron. Primacron did not create the initial entity of Unicron, but merely his physical body within that particular Universe, to which Unicron’s Dark Essence inhabited. As far as Primacron may have been aware, he did create the Chaos Bringer. It is also quite possible that Unicron’s Dark Essence may have influenced Primacron to build his body, though this is purely speculation.

In Devil’s Due’s Back Horizon, Unicron is peculiarly depicted with an organic brain. The AllSpark Almanac II later established that this was due to the fact that Unicron in Black Horizon had traveled from the GoBots Universe. This backs up both methods of Multiversal travel in my theory. Unicron’s Essence must have been “birthed” into the GoBots Universe, having an organic brain just as the other GoBots. From there, Unicron must have physically ventured to the G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers Universe. This also potentially lines up with the claim in Black Horizon by the Cobra-Lavians that Unicron was banished by his race from his home world. This could have been referring to the GoBots and Gobotron.

Within the context of all versions of the Unicron Trilogy Continuity, Unicron’s appearance in Titan Magazine’s Live-Action Movie comic, Dreamwave’s G1 comic, and the Aligned Continuity, Unicron simply existed at some point with unspecified origins. Some stories directly note his ability to traverse the Multiverse, while others pay to mention to it.

Whereas Primus may possibly be unaware of certain aspects of other extensions of himself, it stands to reason that with there only being one iteration of Unicron, he retains all knowledge that he gains. Though when a body of his is destroyed, and it is only his Dark Essence remains, it is quite possible that certain technical information that was stored in his brain module/actual brain may be lost.

Vector Sigma:

Vector Sigma’s origins and lineage are predominately linear with whichever iteration of Primus that it corresponds to within a Universe. In almost every story that has introduced Vector Sigma, it has either been established that Primus “became” Vector Sigma or that Vector Sigma has existed for so long that its specific origins are unknown. Within the G1 Cartoon Continuity, Vector Sigma’s famous quote, “Before Cybertron was, I was,” holds true, as Primus had become Vector Sigma prior to the planet’s mechaformation into Cybertron. Vector Sigma’s existence throughout the Multiverse is neigh-synonymous with Primus’. As Vector Sigma is a physical connection to Primus and the AllSpark, it, too, exists as a node alongside Primus, connecting to every version of itself throughout the Multiverse.


The Thirteen Original Transformers:

While The One, Primus, Unicron, and Vector Sigma were, despite the amount of information, a relatively easy fix, as far as the rectifications of my theory go, the 13 is where it gets potentially more complex; though stemming off of my explanations to Primus and Unicron, it isn’t that much more complicated.


Prima:

Prima is Multiversally the first of the 13, but depending on the Universe, not necessarily always the first Transformer. The original tale is that Primus created the 13. Unicron showed up, one of the 13 joined Unicron and became the Fallen, and the rest died. The end. But since then, more and more members of the 13 have been revealed, many of which are still quite alive and active. Also though it has been established that the 13 are Multiversal Singularities, it has never been stated WHICH Universe they were originally created in. In my theory that the G1 Marvel Comics Universe was the first Universe in the Multiverse, it follows that the 13 were also originally created in that Universe. Since then, it would appear that all of them have travelled to other Universes and had their own adventures. Though like Primus, several members of the 13 have very specific origins in some Universes which would seemingly contradict their Multiversally Singular nature, Prima being one of these.

As stated above, Prima was likely originally created in the G1 Marvel Comics Universe and was the first Matrix-bearer. The G1 Cartoon Continuity is the first story to conflict with this. In Five Faces of Darkness, it is seen that Prima did exist and was a Matrix-bearer, but not the first. A character by the name of Primon predates him. The means in which my theory rectifies this stems from Hasbro’s attempt to explain The Fallen’s Multiversal nature, in which it is explained that by having his original self exist in a Universe/dimension in which time flows slowly, in reverse, or not at all, it allows him to incarnate himself into new Universes, so that he can exist in multiple places at once. But unlike Primus, in which all of his extensions are completely “real”, any version of The Fallen other than the original can be destroyed without actually killing him. It seems entirely possible that Prima (as well as potentially any of the 13) could implement this method of Multiversal traversal, allowing himself to exist in multiple Universes. To further explain this, just as Primus is “birthed” into a new Universe under varying circumsances, such is the case with Multiversal travelers utilizing the method of Prima or The Fallen. This means that when Prima was born into the G1 Cartoon Continuity, it was in the form of a Transformer created by the Quintessions through Vector Sigma, who succeeded Primon as holder of the Matrix.

In the various versions of the Live-Action Movie Continuity, Prima and Megatronus Prime are the only members of the 13 to be named as members of the Dynasty of Primes. In these Universes, Prima’s “birth” was by means of the AllSpark, and his visual design matched the anatomical aesthetic of those in this continuity. In the Aligned Continuity, Prima (along with the entirety of the 13) were “born” into the Universe by means of Primus, himself.

Given the events of various appearances by the 13, specifically the multiple betrayals of Megatronus Prime and Liege Maximo, it stands to reason, that like Primus, upon being “birthed” into a new Universe, members of the 13 are aware of very little (if anything) of their nature or other incarnations, as opposed to traversing from point A to point B utilizing the same body, in which knowledge should remain.

Vector Prime:

Vector Prime is much easier to explain, as his appearances are fairly consistent. As the guardian of time and space, Vector Prime travels through and between many Universes and dimensions. His methods of Multiversal traversal heavily mirror Unicron’s. The only instance in which this may differ is in the Aligned Continuity, in which all of the 13 were seemingly created within the Universe by Primus, which would simply be their method of being “birthed” into that Universe through Prima and The Fallen’s methods. Being so familiar with space and time, it would seem increasingly likely that Vector Prime could/would implement this. Even after his apparent death at the end of the Cybertron cartoon, Vector Prime continues to exist outside of space and time.

Nexus Prime:

Like Vector Prime, Nexus Prime holds very little issues with his existence. In Nexus Prime’s initial appearance in the Transformers Collectors’ Club comics, Prima had used the Star Saber to split Nexus Prime into five component Transformers, who were scattered across the Multiverse. Nexus Prime’s only other appearance is in the Aligned Continuity, which can be explained along with the existence of the rest of the 13 in the Aligned Continuity, as mentioned above.

Megatronus Prime:

It is thanks to Megatronus Prime that Hasbro has offered an explanation to the multiple, seemingly contradictory appearances of members of the 13 across the Multiverse. Megatronus Prime, eventually known as The Fallen in seemingly every incarnation of his, originally appeared in Dreamwave’s G1 comic, in which he was released from another dimension. It is quite possible that this was the original dimension that The Fallen was sealed within, making this the “original” version of the character. Primus eventually sealed The Fallen again, though The Fallen’s Essence would be been seen to have passed from Sunstorm to Jetfire, had Dreamwave not gone bankrupt. What ultimate fate this would’ve held for The Fallen is unknown, but he either would have survived, or this simply would not have been the original version, had he been destroyed.

In the Live-Action Movie Continuity, Megatronus Prime’s existence is as mentioned above with Prima’s. Megatronus was “birthed” into the Universe through the AllSpark as a member of the Dynasty of Primes. With this version of The Fallen not being the original, his demise in Revenge of the Fallen, means nothing to his original self’s existence. Megatronus Prime’s existence in the Aligned Continuity is just as the others as mentioned above.

Alpha Trion:

Alpha Trion is seemingly one of the most difficult members of the 13 to explain his Multiversal Singularity, though within the framework of my theory, it’s not much different from the others. It is honestly very possible the Alpha Trion has utilized the same method of Multiversal traversal as Prima and The Fallen. In the G1 Cartoon Continuity, A3 was the first Transformer created by the Quintessons through Vector Sigma (with A1 and A2 being failures). A3 eventually became known as Alpha Trion. Though he was the first Transformer in this continuity, he was never actually a Matrix-bearer. (It would seem that Primon procured the Matrix from the Quintessons.)

Alpha Trion’s origins in other G1 Universes, the Robots in Disguise Universe, the Unicron Trilogy Continuity, the Animated Universe, the Live-Action Movie Continuity, and the Aligned Continuity aren’t really elaborated on. He simply is very old and has existed for millennia. His existence in these continuities can be explained through the same means as mentioned above. The one issue that appears to be the deal-breaker is that there exists a Shattered Glass version of Alpha Trion, but this could simply be explained just the same as the rest, and the process of being “birthed” into this Universe caused him to be given an Ember, which causes him to be evil.

Liege Maximo:

Liege Maximo, like Nexus Prime, only has two appearances (the G2 Marvel Comics Continuity and the Aligned Continuity), and his existence in both can be explained through the same method that has continually been mentioned.

Solus Prime, Alchemist Prime, Amalgamous Prime, and the 3 unnamed Primes:

The remaining six Primes of the 13 have either not been established yet or haven’t appeared in any media outside of the Aligned Continuity, and therefore no explanation is necessary. Though it is worth mentioning that in the theory that the G1 Marvel Comics Universe was the original Universe and where the 13 were originally created, the ones in the Aligned Continuity would likely not be the originals and just new incarnations of the characters through the same method mentioned above.


It is also worth mentioning that though certain characters are Multiversal Singularities, the appearance of multiple versions of themselves throughout different points in a particular timestream by means of simple time travel within the particular timestream in question is not an issue, as these beings would still be subject to the effects of time within the Universe that they reside within.



Through everything mentioned here, the seemingly contradictory depictions of Multiversally Singular characters can be explained relatively easily. This not only allows for all existing fiction to coincide with the concept of Multiversal Singularity, despite stories not having been written with the concept in mind (even in Hasbro’s attempt to completely separate the Aligned Continuity from the Multiverse), but sets up a framework for any and all future fiction to follow, whether official or fan-material. And though my theory is decently complex, it is still relatively simple and flexible, and can be adhered to without the writer even intending to follow it or being aware of the theory. My theory is just a behind-the-scenes explanation to all past, current, and future contradictions to the Multiversal Singularity concept within the Transformers Multiverse. Someone would have to try VERY hard to deliberately contradict my theory.
