In an alternate take on 'Char's Counterattack', Tomino envisioned a storyline where Char Aznable reemerges in U.C. 0093 as the head of Neo Zeon, intending to hurl the asteroid base Axis towards Earth. Amuro Ray, now depicted as a family man, leads the Londo Bell task-force in a fierce confrontation against Char. The climax of their conflict unfolds across the vast expanse of the Earth Sphere.
