New Animated Adventures timeline placement

*ToTheNines* · 10-02-2013, 09:09 PM

Since I have fun keeping track of this stuff, I'll be using this thread to keep track of where each NAA issue takes place in the Nick timeline (even if the issue's been contradicted by the show). All feedback welcome

#0 = Shortly after "Mousers Attack"
#1 = Directly after "Cockroach Terminator"
#2 = Directly after "Baxter's Gambit"
#3 = Shortly before "Operation: Breakout"
#4 =

-------

#0 goes there because it's not the first time Baxter's met the PD's, and he acts like he's aware of the Foot. #1 features the Shellraiser, so it's post TCRI and the laser kinda ties into "Cockroach Terminator". #2 has April using her tessen, but she's not afraid to go topside so it's pre-"Karai's Vendetta", and #3 isn't long before "Breakout" due to The Kraang perfecting their mind control techniques.

I'm sure future issues will be impossible to pin point exactly, and I expect a few of them to jump backwards, too. Either way, let me know what you think!

Yeah I'm really hoping the Nick comic doesn't wind up contradicting the show at some point or going in its own direction. Unlike Archie, I'd rather this remain in continuity with the cartoon as much as possible.

There are obviously going to be some continuity glitches eventually, but so far these feel like "lost" episodes of the cartoon and I like it that way.

Absolutely CyberCubed! I couldn't agree more!

ToTheNines- This is a great idea for a thread, you've obviously put a lot of thought in to this and I look forward to following this as the comic series progresses!

Are you going to try the UK comics I scanned, too?

Wasn't aware of them. I'll definitely give then a read my next day off.
