Not only that - Kara 16 wanted Superwoman, not Supergirl. In Schooled 13, we have Kara 16 with Supergirl and ‘first dibs,’ and Silver Age Kara wanting Supergirl after Paul already sold her on S-woman. If she still wants Supergirl, then unless Kara16 changed her mind, it should be a simple...
…Kara 16 wanted Superwoman, but this Kara (who seems to be from mainline DC, or Golden Age, or whatever) was convinced to go with Superwoman by Paul. If she wants Supergirl again, that would make it easy, yes? I don’t think Kara 16 changed her mind onscreen?
I think Paul is doing well as a mentor, in terms of managing/setting expectations and answering questions competently. That said-
-this broke my suspension of disbelief (what limit?), at least until I remembered that this is the guy who brushed off Britain's Caligula club because - even...
*shrugs*
There are apparently Moon Kingdom… well, they're basically bacta tanks. They have healing pods.
Presumably, actual full-body biokinesis, constantly, across the entire planet would be an actual strain, or even put the Silver Crystal in Full Danger-To-The-User Power mode, so she's just…...
So does Luthor own Amazon, or does Bezos exist in DC verse? Or… did. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the more morally… flexible billionaires died in the anti-life, at least for the ones that came from wealth and never struggled/suffered much before.
Sailor Moon has fairly solid...
Zatanna is being quite rude. I don’t believe Paul has ever used his abilities to shut her up or restrict her choices, bar that one time she was mind controlled (which didn’t work).
And I don’t understand why everyone is so ok with Canis leaving! He’s clearly the best possible teacher for the...
America: the democrats are politically incompetent (Horne managed to turn a sure-win re-election into a fair fight) and beholden to oligarchs, and still hurt people for imperialism. The republicans are fiscally incompetent and monstrously corrupt (Luthor noted Knight agreed with whoever spoke...
True. Except that he knows that shaping effects can be undone, such as by New Gods. It may be top tier stuff, but given his wondering if he should close the ‘hole in my strengths’ back with Canis on Witchworld, him getting caught out by stuff like this still frustrates me. (Though I agree that...
I’m vaguely exasperated that Paul didn’t assimilate the head while it lived (a few seconds, but with the ring overloading him and then suddenly disconnecting, that could be doable). Grayven at least responded to the Corpse by making these suicidal assassination attempts more costly than just the...
Hm. It would be good if Grayven could communicate that the Thanagarian Empire - driven by desperation from fighting their Grayven or not - tried to destroy Earth without them even being their enemies. Heck, they were practically allied with Earth as they tried to destroy it - and it happened to...
It’s nice to see him not pussyfooting around her willing blindspots. People sanewashing psychotic, openly malevolent or monstrous people/actions in the name of Both Sides/Golden Mean fallacy is exhausting to me, so the alternative is quite refreshing.
I suspect he’s read the report, realized...
Vaermina doesn’t actually have a set of standards or preferences that he’s adhering to; he’s a professional troll that’s gotten banned from a bunch of threads on SV/SB. Don’t expect general consistency; instead, expect a reasonable amount of consistency in him hating one of the Pauls - Renegade...
Don’t forget that these idiots tried to kill him; it’s good to make it clear that doing so just gets your plot ripped apart, where he might not have cared otherwise. Keeps the murder attempts down, though not completely.
He did blow up the Citadel. Though the fact that they’re giving him shit for blowing up the Citadel…
I dunno. Maybe they blame him for Pluto, which was… always a Mother Star. Because… an Orange Lantern’s (Manga Khan’s) mining laser was used? Paul can be inhuman and seemingly deranged, but the...
I love it when he actually uses construct lanterns. I wonder if he’d use assimilation more often if he could learn to undo it himself? Sort of like how to gain enlightenment, he needed to learn how to turn his desires off. Just… not want the construct-lantern, or want it with all its...
I… yes, that's why I said 'maybe he got authorization?' I can square those two together.
The reason I said 'but then' and then quoted Paul saying that killing is discouraged, but allowed is - how does that work out? Did he simply mean that Sinestro should be happy because killing is allowed at...
