Hi All,

If you want to be up to date on what this is about, please go to the below link where I explain everything, well mostly everything.

As for the rest of you, here we have Dobermon's reference sheet.
Fun fact, did you know that Dobermon was a fanmade Digimon that someone made for the 2001 V-Jump drawing Contest that they actually turned into an official Digimon.
Funner fact, so are Mummymon and Cyberdramon.

He only appeared in one episode in Digimon tamers ( didn't even get a manga appearance )
He is supposedly the Digimon partner of Alice McCoy, a girl that is often in the fandom speculated as being a spirit that has already passed on ( even Chiaki J. Konaka states this on his official Digimon Tamers website as well )

I like to believe that Alice was kind of like a bridge between the Real world and the Digital world so that Dobermon could pass through so that he could give the gift of the Digimon Sovereigns so that the Tamers and their partners could Digivolve to their Mega level.

Another fun fact, Shibumi, one of the Monster Makers that worked on the Digimon project, was supposed to already have died in the beginning of Digimon Tamers, they however later retconned it to him being in a coma instead.
While he was in his coma ( or passed away in the earlier drafts ) he was able to enter the Digital world and even bio-emerge to the real world ( like a Digimon ) through his spirit/avatar. He was also the person that has provided the Tamers with the blue cards as well.

I'd like to believe that Alice is in a similar situation ( either dead or in a coma ) I would even call it the same situation as the plot in Cyber Sleuth where the main character is in a coma but is able to use his Digital avatar in the real world.
Even though dead spirits, also like that one dead girl in Cyber Sleuth, Wizardmon and Myotismon in 02 or Adventure 2 are already a thing in the Digimon franchise.

It's a very interesting concept, one that I would love to use in the comic and I already have an idea how I would implement it ( but I have to work on it so that it doesn't become either too cheesy or to edgy haha )

Anyway, that was all for the Digimon ... what are you saying ... did I forget someone ...
Yeah about that, no Cyberdramon or Monodramon, sorry guys.

Reason for that is that I'm going to completely retcon Ryo from not only the Tamers continuity, but also for my comic.
Chiaki J. Konaka was after all forced to add him to the series, despite him not fitting in the Tamers cannon at all, otherwise they wouldn't have allowed him to direct the series.
Which in the end was a necessary evil since Tamers is by far the best in the Franchise, however it took time away from characters that would have benefited having more screentime, like Kazu, Kenta and their partners, Jeri, heck even Rika and Renamon.

Did you know that while Ryo did appear for a brief moment in the Tamers manga, he did not even appear in the final battle with the D-reaper.
Even more he wasn't even there when Rika and Renamon became Sakuyamon.
The Tamers manga actually did their Digivolution so much better as the two didn't randomly decided to jump to their dead ( what was even up with that ) in the manga Renamon actually fell down by accident while trying to save Rika from falling of one of the edges, and in response Rika jumped after her and this was what actually triggered their Digivolution.

So in short, no Ryo, at most he might get a cameo from me as he is the main protagonist in the Wonderswan games, and he has a cameo in adventures 02.
And since in Tamers Digimon adventure and 02 are a cannon series in that universe ( yes the newer games and Xros Wars mention this even in the Japanese version ) I wouldn't mind mentioning Ryo in such a fasion in the comic. But as a actual character, no luck haha.

Sorry Ryo & Cyberdramon fans.


Also normally I would either post the Tamers reference sheets or the Digimons other forms, but unfortunately that will take some time ( it's already a miracle that I manged to post for the past 10 days straight haha ) so in the mean time to keep myself busy ( while avoiding a burnout, I have a dayjob after all ) and to not let you guys worry that this will be another failed comic project for a Tamers sequel that was already promised by soooo many other people over the past decades.

I have decided to rewatch the anime in full ( both the Japanese and English version of Tamers ) to get a better understanding of all the characters in the series, the places and backgrounds that are used so that I can reference them for the comic, to know the exact differences between the 2 versions, and to also get a straight timeline as well.
I first was thinking of doing it in a video format/podcast kind of thing, but decided against it ( it will just take up more unnecessary time that I could spend on things that matter more for the project, and my voice is terrible anyway haha ) and I will just post my findings here on Deviantart and blog in the description box.
That will help me get an oversight on things, and it will help me get a regular schedule so that I can continue posting each day ( I have to get through 51 episodes after all, which will take around 2 months even if I upload on a daily basis )
I might even add the Tamers manga version as well just for funzies sake, as there are some legitimate good parts in the Tamers Manga that I could use as well for the project.

Anyway that was all for now, I will post further details on this later, so stay tuned : )


And don't forget if you have any questions feel free to ask.

See ya all next time.
