    So I may be wrong here but as someone who hasn’t had the time to stay fully up to date with this story and mostly just checks in every now and then, I’m getting really sick of the Apokolips/Anti-Life story. It feels to me like Zoat took the, in my opinion rather nonsensical, “things never go...

    Okay so… I fell behind a while ago and decided to do a quick skim before properly catching up and with how fucking miserable and terrible everything has become I’m probably just going to wait a few months to give things time to get better again before I force myself to read any more...

    I’ll be honest, this whole arc doesn’t really sit right with me. It feels too soon on the heels of the last big planetary threat and very out of nowhere. I get that that’s kinda the point considering how blindsided everyone in universe is by it but I don’t know it just feels unsatisfying to me...

    Oh I get that but the war with the Reach was thousands of years ago I believe and the Guardians haven’t done anything to fix that flaw in the GLC’s design and aren’t doing anything about the Reach skirting the treaty, at the very least they find the treaty acceptable enough to not have adjusted...

    I mean, the reason is pretty self evident You have to keep in mind that the GLC is a police force not a military, which means it’s members aren’t trained in how to fight in an actual war and every Lantern that gets sent to fight the Reach would be a sector missing it’s primarily law enforcer...

    Im pretty positive that there already are, either Medina ignored it completely, it didn’t specify the importance of ensuring both you and your partner are on the same page or it did and Medina kind of just underestimated the importance of that part and assumed she’d done well enough Not just...

    Or it’s a horrible miscommunication where she thought that she had accurately communicated her intentions and the cultural divide was just so great that neither of them realised

    It literally was though, Amazons would meet up with men, have sex to produce a child and then leave with the prospective father only knowing he has a kid if it’s a son and they bring it back The only difference between then and now is that she assumed that he knew that was the deal and he...

    You’re intentionally ignoring the massive cultural gap between the two As far as Themysciran culture is concerned leading a man on isn’t a thing because everyone involved knows the deal and that’s the culture that Medina has been submerged in for three thousand years, think about how set in...

    I’ll direct you towards the Burning Martians, a race of dangerous aliens that the Guardians genetically modified against their will to stop them from being a danger If it were a genuine solution they would have done it Thats not even considering the debate of whether it’s any more moral to...

    I enjoyed this update but I just, still have no idea where it’s heading. It’s fun seeing Superman be Superman but it’s completely unbelievable, and in my opinion undesirable, that OL will ever be anything similar, it would be a fundamental change to his character and would completely alter...

    Ughhh, I’m trying to enjoy this ploline but it’s really doing nothing but annoying me It just feels like an excuse to justify OL making stupid decisions and not being as capable as usual while diluting one of the key elements that make him such a unique character. Like I said before unless...

    I’ll be honest, OL’s subpar performance recently isn’t making me any more of a fan of this whole “man with an enlightened sense of his own desires is suddenly extremely hesitant” arc Right now the only satisfying thing ending to this arc I can see is OL realising that he was right before and...

    Firstly from what I remember Zartok’s goal was never as grand as usurping the corps and using it to make an empire of himself, he just really wanted the respect and admiration that comes from being powerful, maybe he’d go that far eventually but we don’t know for sure Secondly it’s very...

    I’d say that some things that need to be taken into account are that you’d be dealing with a society that accomplished most of its goals a long time ago and a most of the “evil races” they use as boogeymen have already been gone for decades so the hatred and vitriol just doesn’t sink in as much...
