If they give me three things, I’m taking the three things
The wise mountain elder offers three items to slay the great evil. Your predecessors assumed you had to prove yourself by choosing the best one of the three; you just grab the entire lot and walked out.
You can tell that Brennan fucking loves the absurdity of the normal world and then crazy shit going in in the background, just the over the topness of teenagers fighting gods for homework and multiple New Yorkers getting into a pigeon wedding seems to tickle Brennan in the same way that the idea of fighting anything with a duck taped weapons attached to a car and ramming into anything that looks spoopy. And it’s fucking amazing.
big fan of urban fantasy and similar genres because theres nothing funnier to me than a setting where youve got people fighting with enchanted blades and bows and hopping around doing magic tricks but you can also just hit a demon with your car if you feel like it
This is really interesting to think about.
I really like what this physicist, Lamar Glover, has to say in Behind the Curve.
+ this part from Spiros Michalakis:
Instead of hitting people with cupids arrow, he shoots the with a Gatling gun.
dipper is so real i too can't flirt but can make up an insult on the spot that will stick with you forever and cause neverending damage. if provoked enough
After Damian learns this
Damian:
Damian: holy manslaughter Batman
headcanon that after Dick Grayson being Robin all of the batkids interchangeably use “holy ____ batman” even at the worst possible moments
Steph, staring down at Tim in the medbay cot: holy common cold, batman
Tim: please stop
Steph: holy spleenless sillybilly batman
Tim: steph please
Jason Todd on the floor, bruised and bloodied: dad?
(The timer ticks down to three seconds)
Jason: well holy shitballs batman I’m going to fucking di-
KABOOM
I don’t know who se was but the image of putting this made me laugh…
Anyways, Fall
Fall
THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN
Sharing joy and absurdity
I think the best most human thing in the world is strangers doing a silly thing together
I think the last option makes the most sense, but personally I think it’s that the planet that was destroyed was the lantern’s jurisdiction and he died before being able to tell the rest of Oa. They might be on their way, but most likely it would take some time, given that the conquering the the planets is very recent, still nothing yet, but soon.
That might also be true for the hawk people, with them most likely escaping since we saw they had times to make carving of the event and are also probably on their way.
Also I think that computer was the most life given the fact that he could cry.
I don't know a ton about the Green Lanterns. I know some but not nearly as much as other areas of the DCU. I hope that someone who does know them well enough can help me figure this out.
So the GL corps sent a Lantern to stop Brainiac's invasion and Brainiac made Kara kill it and turn the last remnants of it's consciousness into a hologram copy.
But the ring still works for the hologram copy? How does that work? I thought they were powered up by the wearer's strong will. How can he have enough of a will to make the ring work if he's just an echo of what he once was? Is there a precedence for something like that in the comics?
The Lantern corps would have sent more Lanterns if one of them were killed on their mission right? But if Kara had wiped them all out wouldn't Oa be on her list on conquered planets?
Or do you think there ARE more Green lanterns on the way? That they're currently just strategizing a way to beat Kara and Brainiac's Empire.
Or do you think Brainiac is allowing the holographic copy to have just enough will to use the ring and send messages back to Oa to tell them, the situation is being handled, don't send anyone else, until Brainiac is ready to lure more out.
I thought Stan was going to tell him how to bully them with kys too.
don't show him modern technology; it won't end well
bonus under the cut:
