I have to vehemently disagree with this notion.
Nah man, that is still blatantly illegal. A better example would be the end of rome when all the wealth was owned by the ones in charge, having made laws that stopped the systems that had previously kept those in power poor.
If you've ever seen DS9, Cardassians likewise have a stupid seeming court system where (almost) everyone is convicted. The reasoning is that the trial is entertainment and indeed we see many people watching the trial in the YJ episode. It's also quite possible that like, obviously guilty people are expected to give a larger bribe than seemingly innocent ones, so the trial isn't just for show. Honestly the stupidest part of that episode was that Icon, a famed galactic lawyer, had no idea how the system worked.
Is he? Yes, he used to be a lawyer in The Cooperative, but that doesn't mean that he's ever been to Rimbor and he's barely been off Earth in the last two hundred years.
Is it just that honesty is considered an acceptable kryptonian value regardless of circumstances, so it wasn't removed from Superman? Because it surprised me a bit that he was willing to be honest with an alien when he must know that the result of that honesty is likely conflict.
'discovery'?
Should be let.
Very much a good idea, though only those able to withstand Kryptonian strength should respond. So Icon, Captain Marvel, Adom, Superboy and 'Wonder Boy', and any OMACs capable of matching them. Anyone else would be a liability.
Always wondered what the white bits are.? They don't seem the sort to go in for ruffles, and some artists drew them as clumps of something bone-like.
Drawback of greediporting, I guess: No way to spot 'evil' costume changes before you're already within punching range.
If Lex is watching this, which he probably is, he's already got teams on the way with Krytponite beam weapons...
So a significant downgrade. In terms of personality, at least.
...Right into the Eradicator's clutches, of course. And significant that he called Sodam 'Sod-Yat.' The equivalent Kryptonian variation of his name, presumably.
The 'Doomsday' segment buried there, of course.
Hopefully they can get the program out of his head at some point. Not sure quite how they managed it in the comics...
Yep, just like the comic storyline.
So probably super-nano-tech or its own parapsychic broadcast. In the comics, the suit was a conduit for such a transmission...
In other words, he's too busy to bother attacking you right now, and a refined Kryptonian like him isn't about to engage in fisticuffs anyway.
So he'll probably 'correct' the changes to the Daxamites and use them as foot troops while his 'pure' Kryptonians are maturing.
A big middle finger to the 'traitors', as Kem-El probably saw it, eh?
Yes, best to lay all the cards on the table, before one of you has to flip it.
To be expected, I suppose.
Technically belongs to Clark anyway.
Okay, that might be a step too far for OL to tolerate.
Because Kryptonian purity is so important...
...The basically dead gods that are at best, clinging to the burnt cinders of the planet, or adapted to a new existence on Daxam...
But not 'properly' enough for the Eradicator's taste, of course.
Because of his super-healing abilities, right? Edit: Ah, right, the Rondor is a sacred beast on Krypton. Presumably because of their healing powers (their horn was basically a biological Purple Healing Ray.)
At least until they can terminate the Eradicator and remove its influence from Clark. Though some of Kal-El's goals are admirable enough to keep on.
Oh, that's a guarantee.
...Excuse you, what?
Yeah, what OL said!
The Indigo Tribe wouldn't bother, and the Inversions aren't even in the market yet. So unless he's got a line on Yellow or Blue...
I mean, OL... Superman poking around a facility that Lex knows holds Kryptonian tech? I'd have thought the man smart enough to not risk lives over this, though...
For OL's sake, I hope that's a squad of OMACs bursting out of a Hush Tube at full enhancement...
"I let your"
I do appreciate that enemies taking Paul out of the equation proves how far he's come, it's also a bit frustrating that he's so reactive.
It's a virtue, and it has utility. The Eradicator Program is happy to countinence lies, but is weighted against them. It's also pretty confident.
Thank you, corrected.
Thank you, corrected.
Idosyncratic, yes. Completely delusional, no.
No, because he got those by killing a sacred animal.
I don't think I'd watched that episode back then. Also, none of the other characters would have understood it.
They're not keen on aliens.
