Doomsday Device: Difference between revisions

(→‎Western Animation: Added Example)
Line 146:
* The plot of most of the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' mini-series involved Cobra attempting to make a doomsday device out of parts scattered all over the world. The Joe team then tries to keep Cobra from obtaining the parts. (''Arise, Serpentor, Arise'' also followed this plot, however Cobra was genetically engineering a human being.)
* In ''[[She-Ra|She-Ra and the Princesses of Power]]'', {{spoiler|the Heart of Etheria is initially believed to be a superweapon created by [[Abusive Precursors| the First Ones]], able to channel the life energy of Etheria itself into a power capable of destroying whole planets. However, this is only partially true. The Heart is actually an energy source, which focuses its power through the Princesses, and then into the true Doomsday Device, [[Living Weapon| She-Ra herself]]. Fortunately, She-Ra is determined to tell them that "[[I Am Not a Gun]]!".}}
* In ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003 series)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'', Professor Honeycut (aka the Fugitoid) never intended his teleportation device to be a weapon, but the tyrannical militia who ruled his homeworld ''and'' their enemies the Triceratons both figured out it could be used to teleport nuclear bombs, potentially destroying entire worlds by teleporting them into the cores. The entire "Turtles in Space" arc focused on the Turtles trying to keep both factions from getting ahold of him and the blueprints he had memorized.
