Personally I would rather see Abe as the main protagonist throughout the rest of the series, instead of him being a sidekick for every new game moving forward. Lorne should turn the idea around and have focus on Abe who then encounters and helps these 4 other 'heroes' during his own quests. Similar in a way to MO, except the focus was too much on Munch and his half arsed story (which was also due to the troubled development Manco mentioned).

Actually MO is pretty much like that already. You start as Abe, you spend most of the game playing as Abe and Munch never really has an active drive on the story (since Abe was helping Munch get the Gabbiar so that in return he could rescue more Mudokons from Vykkers Labs, he would have gone there anyways). Even the conclusion of the story is Abe possessing Lulu to win the auction, something Munch could not have done.
