"We can do whatever we want" based on societal acceptance of the legitimacy of the righteous is different from "we can do whatever we want" enshrined in law.
Kara Zor-El is Supergirl I. Noriel/Linda Danvers is Supergirl II. Kara Zor-L is Supergirl III. It's based on who showed up first.
They really need to get some new names.
I mean, yeah, if you're talking about governance.
Squire is a literal teenager in this continuity too.
Oh, it gets worse. This is supposedly in Chicago. There are no suspension bridges in Chicago except a single-cable pedestrian bridge, and there isn't even anywhere you could put one over water. The river isn't wide enough (many bridges but almost everything is a steel truss drawbridge) and crossing Lake Michigan is both beyond human engineering capabilities and bloody stupid to try even if it's within superhuman capabilities.
Did he actually meet a violet lantern version? I think he just sort of saw that there was some violet rings at the krona fight, but at least on screen don't think he ever stopped and talked to one.
Do wonder how much this is a mess that arose from the sapient rights act and the like - if there's anyone justifying this I'd have to assume it's because they want to make sure that e.g. demons are emphatically dealt with and that if they need for everyone to not have rights to do that before the league then they have to do that.
Batman got responsibility for overseeing this. Doctor Mist might say that he's unhappy, but the reason he joined the League is still valid. If anything it's more so.
They're too similar at their cores, while their respective life experiences don't really lend themselves towards appreciating each other beyond polite questions. Whenever they have a professional or ethical disagreement, the fight would possess enough heat and burns to lead lingering unpleasantness afterwards. I could see her becoming as close to some variant Paul as Alan and Kon are in this timeline… but not as a romantic partner.
Huh. How often have we seen this gag (not counting The Eyes, just the ones where he shows up like this)?
The only other time I remember him teleporting to a woman in the bathroom was when he was talking to Xalitan's lover.
Damn, I can hear the 'middle-aged English aunty' voice in my head when the lady is talking. Little bit cockney, little bit Julie Andrews? And this might be a good chance to see if average people know what's going on, and what they might think about it...
Eh, you don't generally see the effects of governmental policy-making... Until it hits you in the hip pocket.
And not really having a way to take that authority away if they abuse it, that's the problem too.
It's human nature. Power Corrupts, and all that. Another reason to have checks and balances.
It's usually the cake thing, yes. Or in rarer cases, the eyes.
I mean, it might feel that way from the inside, but...
At best, it was more like suicide bombers taken up to eleven.
This was also sooner after the disaster was ended, so they weren't as together as they could have been...
Partly through corruption, partly through intimidation and blackmail... Lots of ways to control people when you aren't bound by conventional morals.
Which probably weighs on some of them, that sort of failure.
And there's the insidious lure of the matter. 'I think they can be trusted'. What if it turns out they couldn't be, but they were good actors?
That depends on what's done with that authority.
Which is probably tighter-knit than ever these days in that universe.
...Huh, I figured he'd be better known to the public, working with the League. Then again, he doesn't really do anything in the public eye...
Because he thinks he can manage it better than the humans can?
That is a big help, at least during the disaster and reconstruction.
Ah, popular science fiction, so much to answer for.
Rolling hills? I would think so? Pretty, but hardly good farming land unless you use levelled tiers.
Not by himself, but when he can direct people like Superman at the matter...
...This isn't some lingering aspect of Anti-Life, is it Some casual obedience to authority? Or perhaps the White Light left some lingering directions in Humanity.
I mean, a couple of skilled Lanterns could resculpt the land, but...
Ah, yes, that costume. Amazed her Mum lets her walk around in those pants.
Are you sure? Or did you only read the original draft?
...Or worse, everyone on Earth but him could be experiencing a blind spot about the implications of the League having that much authority...
Makes him look panicky and hesitant about having too much power. Might not be, but you never know...Presumably her mother's already had her say about the little matter.
There was no risk of the moon crashing into the Earth.
Thank you, corrected.
Did he say where he came from unpromptedly? Because as far as I recall he still has his British accent, no?
