Then why was Grayven able to survive his punches?
Oof. yeah, that'll take some patching up. Let's hope he doesn't start beating you with the wet end out of pure rage. As for death magic... I suspect it won't be all that effective. Doomsday can die, but it gets better damn fast.
Using whatever comes to hand, eh?
...Well, at least he won't be doing damage to you with it.
I'll give him this, he sure knows how to be disarming.
Yet another combination of words only the Renegade could cause to come about...
The joy of being the tank by virtue of being the toughest fucker there. Even though you're a DPS.
Honestly, that's how many times he's taken that sort of damage? You'd think he'd have an improved method for recovery, at least.
Well, she probably didn't have the physique for an arming sword or larger. And a dagger or short sword is easier to conceal. Useful for a succubus.
Oh, joy. Do hurry along with the rundown, there's no time pressure or anything...
Somehow, I don't think 'death of a thousand cuts' isn't going to work too well here.
...It's your headache, Renegade.
Impressive that he's got enough conscious thought to manage simple tactics like a fakeout.
...Really have to be more careful with that thing, Renegade.
Okay, that'll put him at a disadvantage...
...If not for super-senses. And his rapid adaption probably allows him to develop a sonar sense.
Given how crazy bullshit kryptonian designer genetics are, I would not be surprised if he could make new mass out of nothing.
Well, at least when they rebuild, they can upgrade the road surfaces.
Good idea, just try to do it quietly.
...Kryptonians are just bullshit.
Ultra-bullshit.
Ah. So if they can get the right stimulus, they can shock the human back into control...
...Great. Now he can see you as he kicks your ass...
"Already done. Some bad news, though..." So, dead, comatose or just plain messed up?
At least if he's chasing you, he's not going after the squishy people.
She is good at that sort of thing. Even if she was a bit out of practice.
...Ah. Which explains why he probably volunteered for the project that made him what he is now.
"I see where you're going with this. Opening a small tube now."
At least they can tag-team him until the doc's done and the folks can talk him down. Hopefully.
Because Doomsday variants here are mutated kryptonians...
Missing Full Stop.
...but Adam has learned his lesson...
...and were turned into collateral damage.
Thank you, corrected.
He's assuming the actual Physician will do it, but he wouldn't exactly []i]mind[/i] if J'onn did it. The problem is that while Physician can fix things with magic, J'onn can only use the purple healing ray on certain types of injury, and J'onn himself hasn't been trained in its limitations.
Better solution. Boom tube him to as deep as possible inside the event horizon of a black hole. If light can't get out, I'll bet that even someone with Kryptonian strength can't get out. Particularly with nothing solid to push off of.
That should say 'fourth'.
Sucks to be him, but the Renegade is right. I hope the pot that gave Thundermind his powers is still intact so that someone more worthy can find it.
Just to confirm, the Renegade's talking about Paul, or rather Future Paul?
Awesome. I wish we could've seen their first meeting.
When did THAT happen? Grayven wasn't involved in the tuning fork kerfuffle. Sadly.
"Also, the police are out on the streets. They are wisely avoiding the combat area." I wonder if bats did it with a missile, or one of the drones got him? Because Brannon wasn't super-durable, was he? Either thing would have been enough to kill him...
No doubt Diana has training in fighting blind. But her lower durability will let hits add up.
"Actually, some of the police are approaching the battlefield. SWAT Teams, by the looks of it." Somehow, I doubt that'll slow the Boy down...
"You do realise they'll shoot at the drone, and it will fight back?" Man, having to keep the squishy folks out of the way is getting annoying.
Oof. That's gonna make it a lot harder for her to pull her weight...
I wouldn't be surprised if the Boy didn't even feel pain, beyond frustration as his body failing to do what he wants it to...
Hopefully they won't question what such a senior officer is doing out here.
Can her lasso hold him? Or are you worried about the risk of him breaking it? And she'd probably struggle to get it in place one-handed anyway...
Well, hopefully she's got enough combat experience to recognise that.
Ah, well, then. He's no longer an issue, then.
With any luck, the human mind will hold back the feral beast long enough to work something out...
Definitely not an issue any longer. Pity they couldn't have thrown him against Walker, but honestly, he'd have been a speedbump at best.
To be fair, the Renegade's shown he can hurt the Boy worse. Of course he's the higher threat.
Sadly, her experience in superhuman combat consists of maybe two fights: Ares and Doomsday. Neither were exactly subtle, or tactical.
So, blinded again, and now he's kind of pinned down. Best time to do some combat healing, if nothing else.
Well, evidently he does feel pain, then. Wanting to cradle a wounded body part is a pretty common instinct.
Going in for the kill, I see. Only problem is...Diana's closing the distance, sword extended-.
...He's more valuable alive, but under control.
Props for grace in the face of such pain, at least.
I suspect the mention of his parents has him unsure whether to keep attacking or not...
Presumably this Diana has less godhood in her, so to speak. Less active metaphysique than Sixteen's.
Well, that's an annoyingly vague suggestion of an interesting adventure.
Just watch the leakage, shiny. Don't want to set off too many more metahumans, yeah?
"The police are holding back, and Manhunter has the army under control." Bringing in the big guns as a little leverage to help convince the Boy to stand down, then?
...to slice through at least some of his Achilles tendon before pulling it back.
...as she goes spinning backwards from the force of it.
You've had them focusing on him for multiple minutes at this point.
Huh, this sidestory might be set in the future, I don't remember Grayven ever interacting with parallel versions of the main character. He stabbed Krona rather than get grabbed and that seems to be the extent of his interaction with parallel versions of paul.
It seems to my recollection that most, if not all, of Renegade's decisions have been Paragon the last couple times.
Thank you, corrected.
Which be odd considering she was stated to be a straight up goddess at the end of the first movie.
Which was further confirmed at the end of Shazam 2 when she did the thing only an actual God could do.
Based on observed feats, I'd guess that the Snyderverse gods are kinda weak.
