The Complete Energon Universe Timeline: Void Rivals, Transformers, G.I. Joe & M.A.S.K.!

The Energon Universe has officially hit Year 3, and Robert Kirkman’s master plan is unfolding beautifully! In this video, Colin from Ghost Train Comics breaks down the entire chronological timeline of this massive shared Hasbro universe, mapping out all three phases from the zero point of Void Rivals to the highly anticipated launch of M.A.S.K. We look closely at Kirkman’s incredible world-building, including how he engineered original lore like the Sacred Ring, Agorans, and Zertonians, while seamlessly backwards-engineering legacy elements like the Quintessons, Jetfire, and the rise of Cobra. If you've been wondering how Transformers, G.I. Joe, and the miniseries (Duke, Cobra Commander, Scarlet, Destro) all interconnect, this diagram-filled walkthrough is for you!
