Wait the Secret Squirrel backups were a prequel to the Scooby Apocalypse story? I never read them. Neither do I want to read the Atom Ant ones.

But I agree, getting more backstory on Fred, Shaggy, Scooby, Scrappy, Daisy and Cliffy would've been very welcome. We got a ton of backstory for Daphne and Velma, and granted, they are the focal points of this story (Velma being the architect of the apocalypse, and Daphne being the leader of the group), but everyone else seemed relegated to the wayside.

Other things I would've appreciated would've been more people from the normal/Mystery Incorporated continuities appearing. I'm pretty sure Velma's childhood friend Madelyn was based on Prime!Velma's little sister due to the name and her hairstyle before becoming pretty. And we did get an adaptation of Angel Dynamite (Cassidy Williams), though we never saw her, which made me sad. And I've always thought of Daisy and Cliffy as loose adaptations of Googie and Flim-Flam, due to Daisy's flirtation with Shaggy and Cliffy's closeness with Scrappy, but that's still not the same as actually adapting the characters.

Can you imagine Marcie Fleach, the Vampire Slayer? Or the Hex Girls, mutated witch queens of freedom? Or Vincent Van Ghoul, ghastly king of the zombies? God, that would've been so cool.
