I guess it all comes down to being given prior warning by the Motherbox in the Paragon timeline rather than just showing up out of nowhere using a Fatherbox?
I was more asking about any thaumaturgical / metaphysical consequences.
Says the man in bright red, dayglow yellow and vivid green? I know, I know, stage gear turned super-heroing outfit. Unfortunately, even as a great Jack Kirby design, it still looks like a colour-blind lucheador's ring wear.
Huh, wearing something casual for once? I hope it's suitably non-threatening.
"...It's comfortable. And warm. Is that a crime?"
Yes, turning up in gear that just screams 'Come have a go' might send the wrong message.
If anyone doesn't know, that particular motion is a clear challenge in horse body language. She is in a fighting mood.
Time to break out the lace and crinoline! Go on, make him regret this blank cheque...
Aw, no revenge via fashion disaster. Still, at least he'll look good.
To be fair, most ponies don't have family names. Beyond a common theme, anyway, like the Apple clan.
Now that's a challenge. Durable yet elegant, hard-wearing without being armoured...
Throwing yourself on her mercy and getting a good outfit from it? Typical Renegade trolling.
Come on, Rarity... Lace and Crinoline.
You know you want to...To be fair, Kalibak's usually associated with Green, these days... But pre-flashpoint, he did favour a particularly bloody shade of red...
"Yes, it's legit. I still say this is a bad idea..."
Lead the way, Tank.
The lack of fearful running or harried yelling might make that a little less likely an assumption...
...But the Renegade is still less squishy. And they would probably still shoot first, ask questions of what's left after, if at all.
True. Less outright displays of conquest, but they still rule their neighbours. They just don't do it with an iron rod...
Oh look, they've already noticed.
So, a bit more like the post-flashpoint version. Less Kirby block of muscle and more 'potential Wonder Woman suitor'... The Astro-harness, for those new to the New Gods, is a combination of flight rig and energy weaponry, powered by Orion himself.
He probably just wanted to make sure where the targets were... While he's not concerned with collateral damage and all, Highfather might have words for him later.
Note the godspeech: His immense anger is usually held in check by a dedicated Mother Box...
...A very dedicated Mother Box. Also, not really helping your case, Scott. You're making it sounds like you're holding a grudge, and well...
...Orion's hatred of Apokalips and all who come from it is infamous. I don't think he's in any way going to be sensible about this...
Nope, not sensible at all. The only reason he missed is probably orders. Not one for warning shots, is Orion.
Maybe try a quieter entrance, direct into Izaya's chambers? Preferably waving whatever signs of surrender that New Genesis would recognise? Assuming he isn't like the 'Darkseid with better publicity' of the Post-Flashpoint era...
Hmm... Interesting parting shot from Scott. Leaving a stinging reminder that will make Orion curious, or just sour grapes?
<Sigh> Even with a totally non-threatening demeanour and outfit, The Renegade still manages to antagonise a potential ally... You just can't help yourself, can you?
You'd hate for the pony's nice work to be ruined, after all. One the upside, you did wear it once.
Ouch. There's burning bridges, and then there's nuking them while you're standing on them, Renegade.
You just couldn't help yourself, could you?Back to fleet preparations, and maybe some mine-laying, eh?
I noticed that this image link is the only one that still doesn't work among the ones I pointed out. What could it even be though? A superhero team that came together after the Justice Society, but before the Justice League, that isn't Infinity Inc.?
They met after he took part is rescuing the Forever People from Apokolips.
Thank you, corrected.
No, the first bit of the sentence was 'I don't know'.
No, he's just really angry all of the time and has accepted in his own mind that those feelings are okay when it comes to Apokolips.
No idea.
A good impression and people who can vouch for Scott, nice. Too bad neither are available in the Renegade timeline.
Ahhh, I get it.Orion said:
The non-gods of New Genesis might not be living particularly productive or 'good' lives… but they are generally happy, or at least contented. Comparing NG to the suffering generator that is Apokolips is like comparing having old bargain-basement furniture to being stabbed on a daily basis.
I think it was less mine-laying and more
this.
The Renegade would think it extremely unlikey. At most, he might expect him to relay them accurately to Highfather.
No, but Orion being enraged was a predictable outcome so he had a plan for how to deal with it.
