(though the settings don't seem to match up at all) Thoughts? Explanation? Any others to add? I know that Alcbane and UDDUP are by the same writer, but otherwise I'm unsure how they may be related. Now, this may just be a mistake on my part from what I've read about UDDUP, as I am rather far behind in it atm. I'll be reading it soon though. ________________ If you were to go there and come back to me hurt, I will take your place.. and pull everything you hate.. into destruction...

That includes Void, Z-End, and Alcbane among many other. These manga all exist in a single universe and have their character cross over with one another a lot. As for the premise of the universe, there are these monster called "Knockers" which were created during an incident called "Alteration Burst". Each knocker has a special ability and usually an alternate form, id est they turn into super monsters. A special forces unit called "Boots" was formed to combat these monsters and they themselves have special powers they have harnessed to fight the Knockers with. Note that I didn't include UDDUP, Jesus, or Shield of Aegis in the HeroXLine set. These seem to come from a separate universe grounded in Sci-fi rather than fantasy. The issue at hand now is that Daiba from Alcbane with his super hero self intact has shown up. I very much doubt that they'll merge the universes since monsters would not fit in with UDDUP or any of the other ones in the same set. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.

The latest chapters (40, if I'm not mistaken.) shows a relation to an event in Yami no Aegis (Makes sense since the author is the same one.) though it's still a slightest bit and no one from the universe appears in the manga. HeroXLine Rules! ________________
