ChaosTicket wrote: The Null Void has an official prison The Incarceron. Now either Phil escaped there or he was broken out between TOS and Omniverse. So Phil is a wanted man and an escaped convict. In Max's Monster he got out again and was sent back. While its very likely the Rooters had his criminal record sealed so long as he is a member, but thats not mentioned.

People turn on Ben quite often. Will Harrangue is based around that one trope as in each of his appearances hes doing a smear campaign against Ben. He should have been arrested for treason against Earth when he collaborated with the Incurseans.

Can you explain where psuedo-humans in Ben10 get their powers? Alien Force/Ultimate Alien explained all the powers being that humans for thousands of years have created successful hybrids with aliens. Its apparently a special power of humans as other aliens races cannot interbreed.

But the Rooters are still a bad retcon. a Corrupt Black Ops unit is common enough because its a good idea, but Retconning events from 4 series is just shameful. 1. The whole Null Void is a prison, so it doesn't need prisons, they were put there in UAF (so there was no prison in the Null Void in the OS) for some reason but no one has ever stated that Phil was in one of those prisons. All the Plumbers knew that he retired and when he met the Black Ops Wing of the Plumbers he rejoined to take his revenge on Ben and Max.

2. They need to keep diversity, they can't call anyone with power an alien hybrid. That's just boring.

3. You mean, retconning events from 2 series that retconned the events of the first one.
