Description I just bought the first volume of Exploring Hero yesterday. It was pretty fun. During the battle with Ben, Kevin absorbs Upgrade's power and turns into a pseudo-Mechomorph. This form really creeps me out. A human arm left? Eww... He also possesses a giant steam locomotive and shoots burning coals at Upgrade. But it seems this power drains a large amount of energy from him since he fell unconscious after Ben removed him from the train. Well, an Osmosian cannot fully use the superpower absorbed after all:/

In my opinion, Kevin was more like an antihero in this comic book. He doesn't look as evil and insane as the Kevin from OS. Although he caused a massive chaos and refuses to be on Ben's side at the end of the story, he hesitates to kill a person, helps Ben after his rival saved his life, keeps his word to Ben, and just disappears without attacking his enemy. Compared to the episodes "Kevin 11" and "Grudge Match", this is a huge change.

Seriously, he looks like AF Kevin in an 11-year-old boy's body. The comic books constantly emphasizes that Ben and Kevin were friends and Kevin still has a good heart--even though he doesn't admit it. Ben and Gwen mention that he has changed and wish him to be their friend again. Perhaps the author was aware of Alien Force when wrote the story. The color of Gwen's mana is pink just like AF, so I think he really was.

Nice. Is the human arm somewhere on the train?

It's so creepy but in a cool way. I feel like this could totally happen but just seems so twisted for Ben 10. Still love it. Your animation truly brings it to life which is why I'm locking my doors and closing my windows.

Kevin as Upgrade
Why didn't the Original Series thought of such epicness?

As always, this is wonderful. Kevin absorbing and using only Upgrades power. What a great concept! If only MoA had used that in the episode β€œKevin 11”. Upgrade absorption would have been better than Four Arms, in my opinion.

I know. Too bad Upgrade Kevin appeared in comics only. MoA just loves Four Arms too much:/

Ha ha. They seem to. But perhaps those comics' events have a place in one of the many cross-times Paradox spoke of.

clover-karin In reply to matanui2001 [2012-06-19 06:12:53 +0000 UTC]

Well, since most comics are not canon to the show, so that'd be more likely.

Well, perhaps educational comics have no place in the canon world. Or comic book world for that matter.

clover-karin In reply to matanui2001 [2012-06-19 06:28:49 +0000 UTC]

It is certain. I mean, the time setting is 2012, which makes no sense. And usually comics and video games are not canon anyway. The book is still enjoyable, though.

From what I read, it seems so. You picked a good comic to translate, Miss Park.
