Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Honestly though, unless we do a near-future time travel arc it's probably going to take so many years for them to sort themselves out that their attitude to aliens and isolationism won't be very relevant before the story ends.
Sort of a, "And everyone can believe what they want about which...
I was pretty surprised when we got the high end estimate of "maybe ten thousand" phantom zone prisoners some chapters back. That radically changed my view of how this whole colony thing was going to work. I had been assuming "dozens".
I guess I can sort of see it. If there was an entire...
In true comic book fashion, if you have a character named "Ursa" and a chance to give her a second name, don't pass up the opportunity to make some sort of bear pun. That's my idea!
OL and Karsta interacted pretty recently, and the way it ended I had assumed he had recruited her into the war against the Reach. Strictly speaking, nothing in the latest chapter contradicts this recent meeting. She could have responded "I'll think about it" to OL's offer to fight the Reach...
I appreciate the effort they're putting into where to "settle" the detainees, but I'm not sure if long term it'll be much use. The SI and Superman can choose where to drop these people, but if they are truly "released" then you can't make them stay there. Sure they won't have spaceships to...
A nice reminder that Vandal Savage is perfectly capable of playing the reasonable man when it suits his goals. I wonder if he'll try it on OL, if they are ever in a position to talk where OL isn't immediately trying to kill Savage.
Hate to point this out, but Kara has been here for years of real time and has featured in numerous adventures. Forget reoccurring character, Kara is a supporting cast member (as much as anyone is) right now. Even if she's "resolved" she's been around a long time now.
Interesting idea, but...
With a story with so many subplots and moving parts, it definitely helped to have a "recap what's going on" scene to orient the readers.
Now the question is, will Batman realize he's being investigated? He'll probably at least suspect it once he hears there are Darkstars on Earth, with OL's...
This just falls under the shit that superheroes do every day. Complaining about Superman flying off to check something out without properly informing everyone... come on. That's not how Superman works. That's now how any of them work. They do what they're going to do as seems right to them...
Now, now. As frustrating as they've been recently, Daxamites wouldn't even crack the top third if you ordered species from least awful at the bottom to most awful at the top. (Indeed, I'm not totally confident they wouldn't be somewhere below humans.)
Some time back I floated the theory that Metron was Batman's source for New God technology. I wonder if that will pay off given the unusual interest Metron is showing in the SI. Then there's the Eradicator's claim it had another source for power rings. Metron could make a power ring if he had...
Let's try it with a little something further removed from contemporary politics.
I'm in the Roman Republic and I just came back from a term as governor in a province, having engaged in all sorts of bribe-taking, theft, and abuse of local notables for my own profit. A tribune hauls me before...
Well hey Batman, time to show off those OMACs you said you were justified in creating. This is exactly the sort of over-powered invasion threat they are for, right?
Come on, chop-chop, if the Mad Hatter can use them to beat up Supergirls, you ought to be able to fight Kryptonian robots.
Oh...
Will this is going far beyond a mere custody dispute.
Congratulations to Zoat for planting the seeds under our nose. In retrospect, wasn't it a bit off that the Daxamites would have been willing to pull one of their spaceships out of storage and mount an interplanetary expedition for a single...
I get the feeling Paul is only entertaining these suggestions, coming close to making an agreement that sends Sodam back to Daxam, because he knows the Daxamite contingent is going to do something crazy and he'll never have to follow through. Now he can toss the recording at the Justice League...
I really think I may be the person in this thread most sympathetic to abusive parents. It's a tough job, and the only training most people get is their memories of being children themselves.
Most abusive parents aren't really evil people, they're just fucking up a job they'd like to do well...
I think the Kryptonian we have seen who was the absolute best with his powers was Nazi Superman, and he was really, really good. He had decades to practice, had gotten training in the exotic energy manipulation and mind training Kryptonian arts somewhere, a lot of motivation to get as powerful...
Yeah, Martians aren't Kryptonians but they are considerable stronger than humans. A few extra Gs probably wouldn't be that big a deal. A bigger problem for J'aarkn is that you can walk around modern technological societies all day and not encounter any open flame, but a "primitivist" society...
