BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE Q&A

[Dwayne McDuffie]

In the spirit of opening up discourse (and traffic) at my brand new forum, I will once again be answering your Ben 10 Alien Force questions. As in all parts of life, there are many rules, both arbitrary and horribly unfair:

You should probably tell me how old you are. Kids get slack. Adults are expected to act like adults. When they don't, they should expect to be professionally mocked.

I do this in my spare time, don't rush me. Keep in mind that anytime I'm answering your questions, I'm not writing a new episode of Ben 10: Alien Force.

You're a lot more likely to get a satisfactory answer about something that's already happened, than about something that's going to happen. Then again, you might get lucky. Give it a shot.

If I didn't answer your question the first time, asking me again in a demanding tone isn't going to change that outcome.

There are many questions about the show that I will not answer; sometimes I don't know the answer, sometimes I don't want to spoil future episodes, sometimes I find the answer too much trouble to bother looking up. Often there literally is no answer because we didn't need to know it in order to create the episode.

A personal note: I'm rude, sarcastic, mercurial and prickly (actually, the last may be a partial typo), this is part of my charm, or at least as close to charm as you're ever likely to get from me.

Short of those caveats, feel free to ask whatever you like, and we'll see how this goes for a while.

This is an experiment, don't make me regret it.

Hello Mr. McDuffie,
I have searched endlessly for a place to ask you questions and now that i have found one, i am happy. . (I am 15 by the way). i thought i have found an email that would help me, but i didn't get a reply so i guessed it wasn't yours.

Any ways here are my questions and they are about the episode Voided...

1. How did Dr. Animo end up in the Null Void?
2. How did Many lose his bottom left arm?
3. Was that dog an albino type of Wildmutt or something else?
4. Did the Plumber's Helpers ever find those aliens trapped in the Null Void?

Who are the aliens in the Null Void that are called Dirt Farmers according to the end credits?
Who is the Alien Serf and what is his species and homeworld?
I am currently 21 Years Old and I am a fan of Ben 10 and Ben 10: Alien Force.

1. He went there on purpose, searching for new animal life, but couldn't get back out, so he conquered it.
2. We didn't say, but probably a run-in with a Null Void Guardian.
3. I don't know.
4. Yes, you saw them fighting along side of the Plumbers Helpers in the final battle against D'Void.

They're alien dirt farmers, descendants of Null Void criminals. The Alien Serf is one of the farmers. We haven't revealed his species of or homeworld.

It makes much more sense now, thankyou, but i have some more questions to ask you.

1. Do you know a show called The Secret Saturdays, well is there going to be a cross over between that show and Ben 10 or Ben 10: Alien Force, because The Secret Saturdays gives us a lot of references to Ben 10. Like one ufologist said "Holy Galvan Prime," which is a planet in the Ben 10 Universe. and in another episode, both Hex and Enoch were showed in a criminal database.
2. Also, if there will not be a crossover one day, then do the characters in The Secret Saturdays exist in the Ben 10 Universe?

Thankyou.

I have a couple of questions to ask you too Mr. Mcduffie. (I am 14).

1) Is Techadon just a robot or a robot with sentient life like Slix Vigma?
2) Is Argit 100% of his species, or some sort of Mixed species?
3) Was Argit born on Earth, if not can you tell me how he got to Earth?
4) In your old forum you said that some one that was already shown to us in the show was part of two different alien species, well can you now tell us who that character was?
5) Does Kevin have a name for his car, because i know a lot of fan crazed people who names their car?

There are some refrences in the Secret Saturdays about Ben 10.
Dr. Arthur Beeman says Sweet Galvan Prime and Enoch and Hex or characters who look like them make a cameo on the Crime Data Base.
These references and cameos happened in Guess Who's Going To Be Dinner and Van Rook's Apprentice.

I have a few questions if you don't mind answering please.

1.In the Dark Star episode,why did Magister Ghilil point to his shoulder when he said that Magistr was a rank?
2.Who is stronger,1 Highbreed or Vilgax because when Ben fights the highbreed in episode 2 he says "Whoa" like he's never seen that type of strength before and Vilgax seems to be able to easily smash o the entire part of a mountain.
3.Who is your favorite villain,Vilgax or the Highbreed?
4.Which alien do you think is better depending on power and wierdness(the cool kind)Swampire or Alien X?
5.Will Alien Force cross over with Scret Saturdays?But that must mean that Ben has met the Saturdays before when he was 10 right?You know since it shows the hint in reference to the original Ben 10 series.I'm not sure if I copied the image right but...

I'm 14 and i'm just curious.Please answer.Thank you.

I don't know of any plans for a crossover.
