'count during the Reconstruction?'?
I think putting it like that is okay, but if someone who has studied it would like to weigh in?
Absolutely. 100%.
A very subdued reaction, but he does have a hell of a poker face. I bet to empathic vision, he'd be lit up red and golden yellow, with a hint of jealous orange, all under a veneer of absolute self-control.
A good question. Let's hope Batman doesn't ask you about it if Lex makes any minor adjustments to his policies.
Ah, like most people, from the sound of it. Cat Grant also seemed to only have the basic summary of it.
And if Lex does take any action because of it, at least OL will know he's taking advantage of that insider information.
To wit: "I'm not supposed to talk about the Justice League taking over the world' being the exact wording. But given Lex's own assumptions, it's an easy interpretation.
The problem is that most of them are not lawyers, and thus really proficient in understanding any double-speak in the text. I wonder if Icon has seen this, and what he'd make of it, alien perspective or not. Isn't his civilian identity a lawyer, after all?
At how easy it seems to have been to convince Humanity to hand over their sovereignty?
And from the sound of it, even most of the League doesn't fully realise what whoever wrote this has managed to do.
Ah, no opportunity to leverage votes via public opinion, eh? Or more under-the-table methods...
As listed here, for example, as just one options set... Fortunately, they generally write enough checks and balances into this sort of thing to prevent abuse, I would hope?
Different country, of course. OL might have learned more about the English Civil Wars than he would have the American one.
And then someone seems to have added more than a few edits once people stopped looking closely at it, it appears.
Not nearly enough understanding of human nature, certainly. Though i half suspect if he really tried to understand humans, it'd make him a little upset or annoyed at our illogicality...
Not least because you made him this way. At least on the 'exposed to severe fear and given a fear-based Power Ring.'
Person's gotta 'eat', so to speak.
Supreme poker face. He's not the sort to start getting angry or panicking over something like this... Yet.
Besides, Lex can do his ranting and raving in the relative privacy of the Light's meeting rooms.
I suspect the faint glowing thing would have clued him in, unless Bats keeps it to a very low burn.
Just as he was starting to heal, too. Good work, OL.
Pity we didn't get to see more of that suit. Would bring back some nice memories of Batman '66 and the Neal Adams era. Or the modern 'Brave and the Bold' cartoon that homaged so much of it.
Probably be easier to get the League to recognise the matter after the fact and have them dismantle it themselves.
To be fair, if he's always disappointed, then his mood can't sink any lower.
And confronting batman is still a little beyond his willingness to poke his nose in.
And it can let Lex try and nudge OL away from the League and perhaps lead him into the light... I mean, there's not much chance of it, but if it makes him feel clever...
He's not exactly all that close to others that have expert knowledge on politics and sociology.
