I just saw the trailer of ''Megamind'' in front of ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' and Megamind just looks like an {{Expy}} of Gallaxhar on the surface, right? But what if part of Gallaxhar's backstory was that he was either adopted or a lovechild between a member of Megamind's species and another species?

[[WMG: there's variations or different elements similar to Quantonium]]
*This maybe a stretch, but I don't believe Quantonium is the only powerful element in the entire universe. Much like our elements, there must be variations of Quantonium. Plus, it wouldn't make sense to have only one element that's powerful, so I believe that there are other powerful elements in the universe, they haven't been shown or discovered.

[[WMG:Dr. Cockroach is based on the real scientist, Dr. Samuel Conway]]

* This one has been running through UsefulNotes/FurryFandom since the film came out.
* Samuel Conway is an actual biotech scientist who's furry persona is a friendly, ninja cockroach. "Kagemushi" (shadow bug), or, because he is the longtime chairman of [=AnthroCon=], "Uncle Kage". The Dreamworks producers had attended the convention as guests a few years before the movie came out.

* It's his ''immediate'' response to an alien threat, after all. While we aren't given much on his backstory, it's very possible Monger set up Area 52 as a humane alternative to ''killing'' the monsters while pleasing the higher ups who just wanted them gone. On top of ultimately respecting the monsters, he seems practically giddy to let them loose on the robot.

Moving WM Gs about the 2013 cartoon to their own page


[[WMG: The reason Insectosuarus is absent from the TV series is because...]]
He's dead.\\
With a lot of Moth, Butterfly, and insect species in general, they can spend a majority of their life cycle in the pupa stage, while the mature, adult stage is a relatively short period of a day to a week breeding like mad before they die. Poor Insecto, being one of a kind, probably missed out on going OutWithABang.

[[WMG: In the TV series, there are no plans for an AlienInvasion by Coverton's species]]
Much like the titular alien from ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'', Coverton wasn't sent to Earth to prepare for an alien invasion, but instead sent to Earth to get rid of him because of his incompetence. Much like Tallests Red and Purple, the Grand Coverlord keeps taking his calls to keep up the illusion and make sure he doesn't return home. They also accepted his request to have Sta'abi assigned there because it also kept her out of the way.



[[WMG: In the cartoon, all Area 50-something's earthlings (except for B.O.B., of course) actually knows about Coverton's real intentions.]]
Seriously, Coverton doesn't take any effort to preserve is... well, cover. How long it takes before someone understands that there's something wrong with that guy?! Susan, Monger and the others pretend to not have realized yet, so to keep Coverton stuck on Earth, in a secret base, where they can keep an eye on him and acquire vital information on the invaders' plans.




[[WMG: In the TV series, Coverton is not the only alien invader.]]
In case of Sta'abi, this is pretty obvious, given that she is an expy of Klingon. Her species probably purposefully sent the Vornicarn "egg" to Earth. Also, she has the word "stab" in her name.

In case of Sqweep, well... he was going to make an essay on Earth's dominant species, right? He actually thought that the dominant species were squirrels, even though there is a lot of human-made structures near. His species, who obviously hail from a {{Mary Suetopia}}, were aiming for the weakest sentient species possible. It was close enough.

Basically, they are all in an AntiHumanAlliance, and they want humans as slaves and cattle.
* One problem with that theory, none of the others except for Coverton seemed to purposefully do anything to harm the aliens or the Earth.

[[WMG: It is in the same universe with ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'']]
One of the most obvious reasons: look at Coverton and ''don't'' say he doesn't look like Roger.

Also, Coverlord is not the leader of his people; he's just the colonization commander to the real leader [[spoiler: Emperor Zing]], and Coverton just really admires him. However, Coverlord is also one of the saner people on Roger's planet, and his troops might be even incompetent, thus [[spoiler: Emperor Zing]] offs him. Simultaneously, President Hathaway is no longer president, and, since he's the only reason Coverton is still on Earth, Coverton is captured and dissected. Since [[spoiler: Emperor Zing]] is a [[spoiler: sex-obsessed dick]], he doesn't care about Coverton at all.

** This would require Disney and Dreamworks to work out the legal ramifications of a shared universe and character, making it the craziest and most unlikely WMG on the page. Nicely done.
*** Hey, play nice? Everyone's entitled to guess without so much slack. Anyway. If you take out the whole company and legal tango that would go into it, it's not that bad a guess. Plus, on the name change thing, some stars change their names for various reasons, so it's possible Penny isn't her real name.
