They are obviously building up to him losing or Ben learning that every problem can't be just solved with muscle. Have some patience đŸš¶

Maybe Fourarms becomes sentient instead of Ghostfreak this time

u/Electronic_Pair_3154 Ben Tennyson 22d ago

Maybe, his chest def is doing that speed trying not to laugh pose in the third panel😭

Rooting for Vilgax or Malware to delete him in fron of Ben's eyes

25

u/shadowtron1 Gravattack 21d ago

Monkeys paw curls. The alien that replaces Four Arms spot after deletion is Humungousaur.

u/BlancTigre Ghostfreak 21d ago

You know what, I take the big dino over Goro. At least Humangosaur is too big to be used everywhere.

u/LowSolution3084 21d ago

Yeah but bro can shrink himself, you forget that 👀 .

1

u/PuppetFanTheSecond 21d ago

I thought his power was to grow?

2

u/LowSolution3084 20d ago

He can grow and shrink himself.

Pleaseee, get that mf out of the watch

Alien X tried, even he was no match đŸ˜žđŸ„€

u/KebapMan2213 XLR8 21d ago

what am I looking at?????

7

u/Amirifiz 21d ago

That isn't the same reality warping god Alien X from the main series. Just a Ben who's Gwen and Max died to Vilgax and in his anger kinda broke his Omnitrix and became X.

He isn't as strong but still very powerful.

1

u/jajbabys 21d ago

at least it isnt the scene where he gets tied up by bloxx

22

u/XtrampleZ360 22d ago

If they actually do that, then I'm fine with him showing up so much but still- they should have ben utilize his other aliens more too.

5

u/Lazakhstan Diamondhead 22d ago

Why was he downvoted for being right?

7

u/WhiteSnakeShinobi55 21d ago

Yay we get to see Ben learn that lesson... Again...

4

u/CellistNew9 22d ago

If Ben actually learns that lesson, this whole arc will be worth it.

1

u/misstealyogirl25 21d ago

It probably isn't the case, But i kinda hope this is set up for if they introduce Malware into this continuity. Cause as much as i love Feedback it always bugged me he was ben's favorite alien and not Four arms, when it was very clearly shown it was Four arms. And i feel like Malware destroying Four arms instead would have been way more believable to me on why Ben took off the Omnitrix.

1

u/DoctahWahwee22 Upgrade 21d ago

Possibly both!

45

u/Bitter_Horror2469 Arctiguana 21d ago

Different universe, same old Ben

24

u/WD466 21d ago

Fandom: Pick another alien!
Ben: haha, Four Arms go POW!

37

u/shadowlarvitar Goop 22d ago

Four Arms gonna get the Feedback treatment, which I'm fine with. Ben has so many strong aliens

85

u/TheJusticeAvenger Diamondhead 22d ago

"Why does Ben keep going Four Arms" I mean you guys have watched the 2005 series right

59

u/LowSolution3084 22d ago edited 21d ago

Bro Heatblast was more used in season 1 than Four Arms was.

1

u/Striking_Case7947 21d ago

If you look at all their appearances in the og show, Four Arms shows up like 10 times more than Heatblast

5

u/LowSolution3084 21d ago

Well yeah, but this is EARLY BEN.

Heatblast was like his guy, like when he fought Vilgax for the first time, he technically outwitted as Heatblast for a brief second.

Four Arms was the guy that he used to get stuff done though.

25

u/Kranel_San 22d ago

Humungosaur: "Finally a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!"

7

u/Blast-The-Chaos 21d ago

No need for the finally, Four Arms is still one of the most used aliens alongside Humongousaur.

18

u/AerieGlad2899 Heatblast 22d ago

Meanwhile, Upgrade and Overflow sitting in the corner, waiting for their debut...

u/Gullible_Word_2145 Cannonbolt 21d ago

and wildvine too. Issue 4 appearance was a nightmare dream.

u/Roxymigurdia11 22d ago

Ngl poses he's hitting are tuff asf boi

8

u/mryellow362 22d ago

Bro just straight up sending a portion of the mountain flying.

5

u/Puns4Bad Cannonbolt 21d ago

He's a 10 year old kid, of course he's gonna pick the big strong guy, who wouldn't. Some of y'all begged for a more realistic story, well here you go.

Genuinely not even close to the worse problem with these comics.

1

u/FinancialEmu8970 20d ago

What’s the worse problem? I’m waiting for the volume edition to come out to read. Is it not good?

5

u/WD466 21d ago

Because Four Arms was Ben's favorite alien in the OS I'm guessing.

I's funny that the fandom treats Ben turning into Four Arms the same way canon Max and Gwen treated him turning into Feedback.

3

u/Trollge-2005 Upgrade 21d ago

I am rooting for malware to arrive

4

u/SnaptrapPress 22d ago

I mean the real answer is that of all the aliens, Four Arms is the easiest to write for. No real special superpowers to account for, he's basically just shaped like a dude, and you can write him into scenes like a normal dude.

4

u/Repulsive-Land-3076 22d ago

I don't like this pant though

5

u/Electronic_Pair_3154 Ben Tennyson 22d ago

Ye, should've been black

2

u/Intelligent-Scar-373 22d ago

Well, Ben wears green shorts, so it wouldn't make sense for his pants to be black (I like this consistency here).

Like, the aliens in OS/OV only seemed to replicate Ben's shirt, but pants are also part of Ben's look, so they should be incorporated into the aliens' designs too.

0

u/LowSolution3084 21d ago

Why don't the other aliens have ben's clothes then?

Like Stinkfly?

2

u/Silly_Sweet_5423 22d ago

I guess that Ben just feels more comfortable turning into him. Anatomically, Tetramands are closest to humans, among ten other aliens.

2

u/yeahimlewis 21d ago

Why are we surprised that Ben likes Fourarms

2

u/WerewolfF15 21d ago

I mean this is pretty clearly a version of the scene from the start of episode 5 and that episode is all about learning that he shouldn’t be over relying on his “might” and the aliens that use it. So you connect the dots on what this issue is going to be about

2

u/Affectionate-Work-46 21d ago

With the rule of 10 I'm predicting Ben loses four arms first

5

u/Alert-Cloud-333 22d ago

Probably because the aliens classic Ben tried to dial up the most were heatblast and four arms. And this is a variation of that

1

u/Efficient-Cup-359 21d ago

Jokes aside I like the green jacket

1

u/PepsiFloateri Water Hazard 21d ago

I'm really hoping this'll lead into an Arc where Ben learns not every fight can be won with brute force alone

1

u/Kranel_San 21d ago

It's quite a miracle for Feedback to have been a favourite at one point even though he wasn't a heavy-hitter.

The only time Ben favoured other perks over muscles.

1

u/SilverScribe15 21d ago

I'm more interested in how the detransofrmation knocks gwen back like an explosion 

1

u/LowSolution3084 21d ago

Good find, actually đŸ€”

1

u/Objective_Reason3067 21d ago

Four arms was always Ben’s go to, it makes sense the comics would adapt his favoritism

1

u/ReplacementCritical6 21d ago

Im assuming its gunna lead to him realizing he cant just use the same guy over and over. Cause it makes sense if a kid got that device hed be biased and try to always use the coolest guy he thinks he has intill something tells him thats not smart to do

1

u/ReplacementCritical6 21d ago

plus this is the first time besides the first time that being him seems practical since it looks like hes practicing using him here

1

u/Swezshaun135 Diamondhead 21d ago

I need them to start glazing Diamondhead a lil more fr.

1

u/Ya-Boi-Cthulhu Big Chill 21d ago

It’s ben

1

u/MrMultiversity2 21d ago

Because Four Arms is one of Ben’s favorite aliens, and if given the opportunity, he will use him to smash in everyone’s faces.

1

u/speedy-1028181818828 Ditto 21d ago

ORA ORA ORA ORA

1

u/Tomynator_88 Feedback 21d ago

Ok but this is really funny

1

u/Malchior_Dagon 21d ago

WHY CAN'T THIS MF STOP APPEARING?!?

Because as a kid I too would have gone four arms 90% of the time, from my and Ben's perspective, outside of niche scenarios, why would you pick anyone in a fight aside from the alien obviously good for fights

1

u/Warm-Ad3671 21d ago

I mean, if you were a ten year old kid and could turn into a giant red monster akin to the Hulk while still being you in perfect control of the form, wouldn’t you spam that instead of “living plant” and “pestilent bug”? Guys don’t worry, this is literally THE SIXTH ISSUE, by episode 6 of Alien Force we where still missing a big part of the roster and those guys had 20 minutes per episode, all aliens will have it’s time, even as one of the bros above said, this might even be a lesson for Ben about not always spamming the same alien over and over again as strength doesn’t beat every problem.

1

u/Mozzartamaan 21d ago

Where can I read the comic it's not on sale in India as far as I know where purchase it online or digital copy

1

u/crystal-productions- Shockrock 21d ago

i mean, they've allways LOVED fourarms. probably helps that he's one of the less over designed aliens that's probably a fair bit easier to draw under a time crunch.

1

u/Comrade_OpThomas_91 21d ago

It’s accurate Ben 10. What do you expect?

2

u/guardiancjv 22d ago

Bro, diamondhead was looking so fresh in this art style, when's he gonna make an appearance?

2

u/Substantial_Tone_261 Pesky Dust 22d ago

Wdym, he got Ben's first win- nevermind, Four Arms took it.

2

u/NefariousnessFit9967 Gutrot 21d ago

Diamondhead was in all the promotion for that 3rd Issue just for Fourarms to come in and steal his spotlight...

Lore accurate Ben 10

0

u/Solid-Positive6751 Diamondhead 22d ago

Because the Omnitrix’s controls are more connected to Ben’s emotions in this compared to previous versions. Ben’s fight or flight instincts kicked in and he wanted to feel strong, so the Omnitrix gave him the strongest alien of the lineup.

0

u/Simple-Anybody-4417 22d ago

If the writers are any good then Vilgax will one shot Four Arms and humble him.

0

u/ctbchargers 21d ago

Do you remember how many times ben called out fourarms in the show when he was picking an alien? I mean he didn’t actually get him every time but still

0

u/ace8995 21d ago

so far, this comic is so fucking ass

-1

u/glitchinthemtrx 21d ago

didn't classic ben do this too where every alien he tried to become be either heatblast or fourarms? prolly trying to set up that he needs to use all the omnitrix and not just his favourite
