Dr. Never, Atomiknight, and the Future

Not bothering with spoiler tags as this doesn't really "ruin" anything for folks. It's just a convenient one stop spot for people to get the LD on Dr. Never and what implications he has on the future (i.e. Atomik Age).

There seems to be some confusion about the future of the Nuklearverse. This confusion arises from a story Atomik Lad tells Rachel about a trip to the future forced upon Nuklear Man by Dr. Never several years previous. Try graphing that timeline.

Anyway, due to the trip through time, Nuklear Man was effectively taken out of the universe for thirteen years. Without his influence on the world, certain things came to pass (while others did not) and in the end Dr. Never was king of it all.

When Nuklear Man was re-introduced to the time line in the future, he found a grown up Sparky who was calling himself Atomiknight. It is presumed/implied that this Atomiknight had been fighting against Dr. Never's regime but hadn't managed to overthrow his rule. He teams up with Nuke for one last battle with Dr. Never and the outcome is a bit vague. I'll explore entirely what happened during Nuke's trip to that potential future in a short story though. Anyway, we do know that in the tussle Nuklear Man was transported from the future back to just a few moments after he'd been sent there in the first place.

Since Nuklear Man was put "back" into the universe in the past, he was then made to be not absent for thirteen years and the future ruled by Dr. Never with Atomiknight fighting against him never comes to pass.

So speculation to the tune of Atomik Age revolving around defeating Dr. Never is faulty. Ain't gonna happen.

I have no specific plans for Dr. Never at the moment, but he is a time travelling villain who can be anywhen so I'd be a moron to say absolutely that he won't be in Atomik Age.
