...Uh, Angelica and Mazikeen? Or are you planning to sit on the edge of reality like a game interface and pan around with a 'no fog of war' cheat on until you spot them? 😏
I suppose if it does turn out to be aggressive, it'll be getting a lesson in the laws of physics as relating to objects...
A detail many wouldn't think of, concerning the horse. Too often fantasy novels treat horses as living motor vehicles, never taking into account things like exhaustion or fear responses...
Well, hopefully he can bring Angelika and Mazikeen here promptly and then get them gone before their...
Sounds like a right conga line of trauma. Just one hit after another... Still, good to know his metaknowledge is accurate to the course of events here. So he won't be operating in unknown circumstances.
OL wasting little to no time on sidequesting with his Rings' mobility. Need to be...
Bit of a tower-measuring contest involved, eh? At least they didn't suffer any noteworthy interruptions on the flight over. Given his speed, I don't think anything local could keep up if he was suitably motivated to outpace them.
There's always some new complication popping up, isn't there...
Pure muscle, I suspect. Slaves with picks, spending lives over centuries to create networks beneath the Earth. Though navigating the excavations would be tricky. One pocket of unstable geology or hostile fauna and you'd have to reroute miles.
It's entirely possible that Angelica and Mazikeen...
Of course he would. Imagine the ability to know every word a book contains without having to take the time to translate, read and understand the text. For a seeker of knowledge, that would be a literal godsend.
One good thing about OL having a Power Ring here is the ability to cover ground...
Modifying it is clearly right out of the question unless you want to deal with Apokalips or New Genesis, of course. Which means you're stuck with the default settings of the last owner. 😏 He wasn't a 'Taskbar on the right edge' sort of freak, was he?
Some impressive gains for Maltus ahead...
Again, not really anything he can't deal with. I assume those are some manner of lethal poison upgrade which would normally be quite effective against anything with a biology. Sadly, if they can't touch flesh, they're not a threat.
So, then. Trapped in a pocket universe where your local...
Ah, I get the feeling wherever he's ended up, someone is about to have a bad time. Whether that's OL or those around him remains to be seen. Depends on how they can handle a Power Ring user, I suspect.
Well, then. Looks like OL somehow got sort-of isekai'd. No Truck-Kun of course, since...
With prejudice, by the looks of it. I can understand why, given what she said about it being fundamentally wrong. With any luck, this might even improve the overall quality of Slaughter Swamp's general atmosphere.
Well, it looks like OL is in for a peculiar day. Perhaps the smiling bastard...
Oh-ho. The birthplace (and rebirth-place) of Solomon Grundy. Sometimes a magnet for weirdness, though not so bad as Swamp Thing's home grounds. OL running some routine checks or on a mission proper, i wonder?
I suppose this is a bit of a difference from his previous recent 'jobs'. Wonder if...
And straight into a Renegade opener for a Paragon episode. I imagine their subplots will be amusing contrasts to each other. And the Renegade interacting with grumpy Granny Hinon? This will be fun.
I guess things haven't been going as well on this side of the timeline for the Maltusians...
So a bunch of the former inmates just left once they were sorted out? I suppose that was an option - no need for them all to stay at the colony proper - but it does weaken the remainder...
And so the episode ends with a quiet chat. Bit rushed, but I hope we do see Clark getting checked over...
I suppose a lot of the meeting was boring briefings about what each of them was doing. Only natural to skip over exposition we the audience have seen before. Though the lack of Constantine is a little worrying.If you don't know where he is, you don't know what he's up to. And that can bite...
Ah, the Renegade. And Geoffrey Talbot, meeting his associate's little management group for the first time. Though I find it amusing he rides about in what I can't help but imagine is a flying, monochrome panda car. More likely a 'Jam Butty' though
And so the New Light gains a new member...
