Darkstar Rising (Ben's redemption)



Today was the season two premiere of Ben 10: Alien Force and it was pretty good. I mean despite the season finale and the huge let down with Alien X, this episode definitely redeemed the series. A head Plumber comes to earth accusing Ben, Gwen, and Kevin of impersonating plumbers. This accusation doesn't bode well for the Ben and the gang leading to a fight. The Plumber easily overpowers Kevin, but reaches a stalemate when Ben transforms into Goop,disarming him. After the fight the Plumber leaves with Kevin's badge, and the threat of throwing the team into the Null Void. The next day the gang gets attacked again but this time by a Highbreed commander, almost defeating him. The Plumber returns in the midst of the fight, thinking that Ben and the gang attacked the Highbreed. We soon learn that this has all been a setup by Mike Morningstar, who is now Darkstar. He is more powerful (and uglier) than he was in his last appearance and needs more power to sustain himself. Darkstar looks to The Plumber, Ben, Kevin and the Highbreed to feed his power. while being drained of thire power. Gwen and DNAliens free them and they all defeat Darkstar.
