I have to disagree. ReGeneration One kept more of the details of the original series, as well as picked up the story from the end of Marvel issue #80.Sabrblade wrote:And it's more like Regeneration One is the splinter timeline since it came second and ended with Rodimus Prime cutting itself off from all other timelines and universes to keep the world of RG1 isolated and split off from all other worlds.
G2 pretty much ignored what happened in G1 but if you want to get the proper start, you have to read the 4-issue crossover with G.I. Joe that explains why Megatron is now a green tank.
As for Jhiaxus himself, his G2 version was much, much better and entertaining. He was more vicious and uninhibited in G2, whereas in ReGeneration One he was just another villain, easily dispatched after a few issues. He pretty much drove the story in G2, and everything the other Transformers did was a reaction to his actions.
And he completely wiped San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland off the face of the planet with 1 shot from his spaceship, just to show Prime he wasn't **** around.
