Charlotte (Fullerton) McDuffie

The novelizations & storybooks are not canon. Nor are the videogames or comic books or toys. Only the episodes of the series are canon. This is Dwayne McDuffie’s rule.

And, yes, I agree with Derrick that it does not look like an Incursian.

If the series “leaves it open,” then it is canon to be unanswered.

I would have to research David Lewis first—I’m not familiar with his work.

Derrick was not one of the writers—he was the extremely talented designer who contributed many good story ideas. :’) RIP

If it happened in a Ben 10 episode, it’s canon. If it did not happen in a Ben 10 episode, it isn’t canon.

No. It is not canon at all. Only episodes of the TV series are canon.

If it is something I am reiterating that is in an episode of the TV series, then it is canon. If it’s not in an episode, it isn’t canon.

And if Charmacaster took the Omnitrix the very first time she met Ben, the show would have had to become CHARMCASTER 10 instead of BEN 10. :)

Oh okay. I understand now.

We never said, but IMO the Omnitrix makes it so Ghostfreak cannot possess Ben, otherwise Ghostfreak would have when he first escaped the Omnitrix and the show would have become GHOSTFREAK 10 instead of BEN 10. :) Or GHOSTFREAK 9? 😜

Yes

The Omnitrix does not have “soul manipulation immunity,” because I don’t know what that means.

1. IMO The Omnitrix is immune to magic. Otherwise Charmcaster could have taken it from Ben immediately when she first met him.

Dwayne McDuffie came up with the idea for Chromastone to be destroyed. For drama.

I think Ben’s normal aliens could have fought and defeated Malgax. IMO

Yes, Ben didn’t really need Skurd. For anything at all. IMO Cartoon Network made us put that character in.

It isn’t based on math or physics. It was imagined into existence. Like how Alien X recreated the entire universe and everything in it except for Ben, that one time.

2. Dagon would still be more powerful.

1. Azmuth 10K would be the same size but have an enormous brain like Brainstorm.

Correct

Okay. Got it. I understand now. :)
The Secret of the Omnitrix is from the first BEN 10 series, before I came onboard (Alien Force), so I can’t really speak to it. You’d have to ask a Man of Action or the original series’ Story Editor, Tom Pugsley.

If it isn’t an episode of the show, none of it is canon.

What is “The Secret”?

2. I’m afraid I don’t understand the question…

1. IMO unofficial opinion, Tetramands come in different colors.

Correct

Ben needed to be 11 so that he would already have the Omnitrix (which he got when he was 10).

But I think it’s so cool that you know about that story, since I wrote it! :) :) :)

2. That printed info is not canon—only the content of the show is.

5. It MIGHT have existed. That’s what a legend is. There is no evidence except storytelling about it, but maybe!
