My issue with Elita Prime is the same as Arcee Magnus.

Had potential to give them a cooler new name, and didn’t. Just slapped Magnus/prime at the end. Hell the designs aren’t even that different either. Elita’s design sucks

Arcee really should have been called Arcana Magnus

Just saw a piece of arcee magnus fanart titled Arcana Magnus, and i thought that name sounded so cool. Skybound writers missed an opportunity there

Im also really hyped to see more of Arcee/Arcana Magnus, since the magnus title feels earned in her case.

Elita Prime though... i dunno. I'm hesitant to read the new issues with her in it. Given the way she was written in the beginning of the series, I'm not optimistic about her tenure as prime.

Pretty sure the name Arcana Magnus comes from an interview about the POTP vote. From what I've heard, the designers were asked about what name would've been given to Arcee if she won, and they answered with Arcana Magnus. Dunno how true it is, I've just heard it repeated a few times in this sub.

Oh cool! Even its not true, its a cool head canon to have. I just hope the skybound writers find a way to work that nane into it (even thoughi know they wont)
