PHANTOM AU MASTERLIST.
All Phantom related stuff will be in this post including all released Chapters,character breakdowns and other silly stuff related to DP. Last post was getting kinda big so I figured I'd make some adjustments.
#PHANTOM AU
Au following an 18 year old version of Dan who gets his powers after a failed lab experiment.
Season One
AO3 link to the fic.
idk why ppl are mad about the body horror in dynamite, like that's something that's a new side of Ben 10 they were never able to explore before that's inherent with the Omnitrix as a concept. it's horrifying right now for Ben because it's brand new and inherently scary and he's not used to it. and there's only TWO volumes out. they're trying to set the tone of the comic series. and also show aliens earlier to tease their debuts by having the Omnitrix cycle through in that one segment. comics do stuff to have cool art. and they're trying to show us what the tone will be for the rest of the series early, because EVERYBODY is a new reader looking to see what happens rn
Tbh I do think this is an unfortunate result of them basically ditching the body horror post classic uaf rarely did it if ever and Ovs artstyle didn't really allow for it and well the reboot never even tried.
I think that because the sequel series strayed so far from what the original series was fans have forgetten that.
Like the omnitrix went from being this thing that was permanently stuck to his wrist morphing around his wrist like a symbiote and literally pulling his flesh when he tried to take it out to just being a watch that clamps on and unclamps.
The aliens went from being creatures to being just guys and they stayed that way until dynamite ben10.
Cuz you're totally right the idea of the omnitrix is scary they just stopped playing it up after classic.
OH MY GOD LITERALLY that drove me absolutely crazy first watching Ben 10 classic and seeing that the sequel series just treated the Omnitrix as a normal ass watch he can take off whenever. there's zero stakes to it being stuck to him permanently like there was before. and especially what you said about classic playing into it, the style of body horror dynamite is going for with the organic tendril-ey fleshy stuff is exactly how classic did it too!! every transformation Ben has that sort of thing go up his arm or just entire body regarding fourarms. and Kevin's entire thing. it's so nice to see them do it again. as someone who's favorite is classic I love seeing them return to the things I was SO sad to see go in the sequel series. and with this new wide open concept they have, the main flaws I had with classic being that there wasn't enough of it and they weren't allowed to have payoffs to the stakes they set up and actual real arcs and plots, can also totally be redeemed with this comic and I'm so for it
I agree
Like i hated that they ditched the body horror transformations for just bones changing. OV did have a nice flair to their's but even then it was still mainly flashing lights and morphs more than anything else.
Like it does seem like MOA had a very specific idea in mind for classic and they weren't allowed to go as hard as they wanted and this comic is them basically savoring their chance to do that. Cuz the more symbiotic omnitrix,the government involvement,the body horror even the mild gore all feel like things they probably wanted to lean into in the og series but couldn't because ben10 was originally a kids show.
Cuz this is the same franchise that had mutants, aliens, wizards,zombies,energy vampires etc and the fact that it got so diluted over time definitely seems to be why the book doing these news things is so divisive cuz in their head ben10 isn't this sifi fantasysuperhero series of 10 year old ben with the omnitirx fighting aliens with his fam it's the alien conspiracy series with teenage ben with kevin and gwen or the buddy cop series with ben and rook
Somewhere along the way we lost it.

I just realized that i think this is the first instance in the entire franchise where the aliens have the green omnitrix badge without also having green eyes it's a nice change up.
And I really like that it seems that all the reprint covers are just gonna be Ben and his aliens which will probably the only way we'll ever get colored full body designs of the aliens outside the comic.
Not really feeling the canonbolt one tho but that heatblast drawing fucksss!!!
Also yeah you're never gonna convince me that Robert Carey was a bad choice for this book, he needs to do a generational fumble for me to be like "yeah this dude not it."
Cuz look at how much aura these dudes have
Even Canonbolt ugly ass hitting that shit.
That Diamond head variant for issue 3 gonna hit like crack.
Ive always preferred the omnitrix badges being green anyways lol it just fits right with me idk.
Same i think it being green works better than just grey and white.
But usually the green trix is accompanied by the green eyes
It's a subtle thing but seeing it this way is kinda neat
And There it is Phantoms 1st,2nd and 3rd suits in my AU.
While all these suits do have numerous iterations cause I'd like to imagine that Dan occasionally adds/removes extra shit from his suits these are the 3 main ones.
The 2nd one remains my favorite tho and it's probably gonna be the one i continue to draw the most .
I just think it's neat.
Also still not a huge Fan of my Dan actually having a full on superhero suit since I view him as more of a vigilante but I just chose to give him one cuz story wise it doesn’t make sense for him to fight crime in sweats forever.
So while i don't dislike the 3rd suit it's probably gonna be the one i draw the least.
So funny how I abandoned the 3rd suit completely and just started doing redesigns of the 2nd suit. And then for my Danny's actual in universe 2nd suit I just did something completely different 🤣🤣
I regret nothing
My al drawing
And my drawing invited by listening to epic the musical and getting intoberserk
Reposting skeye full of stars
Gonna be traveling for the next few days
Which sucks cuz I hate traveling
But is great cuz I'm going back home for the first time in 3 years😭
So it's gonna be hell
But worth it

My piece for Haunting Heroes Discord server WCT. The theme was 'Wings'.
I'm so happy with this one guys
Ben 10 is dayilght curfews best sellers for the week!
My franchise stay winning
Say what we will about the sucky parts of the fandom but the fans that can show up always will.
That dynamite Ben10 toy line is gonna hit like Crack in the 80s
You know I've probably said this before but so many criticisms of dynamite ben10 fall flat when you realize these people are treating their personal preferences as critiques on the content presented instead of just shit that they personally do not like.
Like you not liking gwen being into aliens is not a criticism on it's implementation in the story, it's not the prime continuity so her being into different things is fine.
Them using slang like rage baiting and referencing freddy fazbear also isn't a bad thing they're kids who were born in 2016 of course they'd say and reference things like that were prevalent in their lifetimes.
The aliens looking more alien and the body horror being played up more also isn't a bad thing you're just used to the aliens looking like supeheroes.
Them not beating around the bush with Max's origins also isn't a bad thing considering we already know Max's origin.
You not liking the artstyle doesn't make the art bad.
Like not liking the direction of the book doesn't make it bad it's just not your preference and thats fine. And I wish more people understood that instead of framing their criticisms like fact.
It's not what you expected and you don't like that and thats fine...but thats not a flaw on the book.
Adding onto this even more cuz I saw youtube comments(yeah I hate myself) and this is so evident people are legit using the freddy fazbear line as a legit critique of the book.
People are legit upset that he put the line in there cuz he thought his son would like it. Like how miserable can you be??
Hating issue 1 just because it was setup.
Saw someone say deviant artists would make a better book
And this is all off of issue one.
Saw a guy who hated issue 1 glaze the fuck out of issue 2 cuz it's finally doing something different in his words "issue 1 didn't give any justification why someone would read it and not watch the cartoon." And I'm like there is noway you're making judgements like that off of one issue.
Like god these niggas are so insufferably miserable it's hard to even take them seriously.
I saw someone complain that the issue takes place in the Forrest!! Like "it's just a bunch of trees" like news flash so did the cartoon.
And of course I saw the obligatory "they should've made it a ben10000 comic with the classic artstyle" cuz thats the zenith of creativity these people have.
And again lets not get it twisted, there are lots to criticize about the comic, the pacing, the length, the lack of breathing room in between shots,even the fact that the first 3 issues are just the origin and the first issue itself was mainly just setup. The fact that issue 1 doesn't give u a good idea at who max is exactly. The wonky shots aren't often but they are still noticeable and the fourarms scene in issue one was unnecessary if you were just gonna do heatblast shortly after. We still haven't been given a proper look at the omnitrix despite the story revolving around it, the scene where ben gets the omnitrix could've been more dynamic and we haven't had a standout ben moment yet.
See that? See how I had criticisms about things that actually would affect the perception of the book instead and not just "this doesn't look like the classic series I don't like it?" Or "they changed this from the cartoon so i don't like it."
Crazy right??
