Some fun interaction.

…I got nothing. Far as I can tell you picked the name out of a hat of French names.

"It is interesting to see you so discomported, Mister Grayven. How much of a threat do they pose?"

What part of 'the Green Lantern Corps really took their gloves off' did he fail to understand?

"Master!" I look down at the 'thump'. Miss Amane is genuflecting to me, faced pressed against the floor. "I have failed you! Please, forgive me!"

…

…kay..?

To use an appropriate quote: Reap what you have sown.

We thought that if Linn stunned each war band and Iname killed the leaders, that might be enough to convince the rest to back off.

Decent plan, but you need something to fill the power vacuum you are creating. Preferably something that does not require your continued attention and or support.

Flipside: the GLs in Paul's world are both more competent and know to be on the lookout for a mind controlling Staryu.

Grayven needs to deal with this all on his lonesome. Paul does not.

You're both wrong. Sunset Shimmer still hasn't seen it written down and still thinks that her name in Linn. Remember?

"Graven and Linn, right. Ah, hello!" She smiles with enthusiasm borne of her desire to move beyond what must have been quite an embarrassing first encounter for her. "My name's Sunset Shimmer." She holds out her right fist towards me, fingertips first. "Pleased to meet you."

IIRC, he lied to the Box about him going to Prime and coming back without a soul. But, yeah, we weren't shown or even told here who had heard that exchange, or if he told them...

The centimetre is a French measurement.

Yes, during the French Revolution, the people were more or less "f*ck this sh*t everyone and their mother have their own unit and screw over the customer by fidgeting with them. Let's make units through the power of SCIENCE ! Ok, let's take the Earth's circumference length, divide it by 4 to have a quadrant, then by 10 000 to have a manageable unit, and call it the "mètre" (from THE MEASUREMENT, in ancient greek)"

About the other units :
Because 1 m x 1 m x 1 m is huge, volumetric capacity was made from the sub-unit just below (0,1 m x 0,1 m x 0,1 m = 1 L)
1 kg is the mass of 1L of pure water
0°C is the freezing point of pure water, 100°C is the boiling point of pure water

I don't really get why the Imperial units users seem so lost about the metric units.

Oh, wow, is that really how that came about? Interesting.
 
I actually had a dream last night about Batman saying "Cheers." to OL and I made a mental note to point out to Zoat that Batman wouldn't say that as he's American. I am unsure what to make of this.

We don't actually have confirmation that the same will happen on Paragon side. It's likely, yes, given the title of the episode and that it's a Paragon one, but if the person who stole the Star Conquerer is specific to Renegade, then something different would have happened.

And we have a new hypothesis for why Guy was feeling unwell.
This is disquieting because Guy is the current host of Ion.

Guy isn't the host of Ion. He knows how to call Ion to become the host briefly, which is nearly as good, but he isn't actually the host.

I wonder if Faceless the Hunter exists here or if the Starros are just Starros?

If you mean the humanoid controlling the Starro collective, as I recall Mr Zoat has stated that he doesn't like the idea.

Brain is still at large. Intergang is still working. Truggs is still at large. So is Ra's.

Actually it's been fairly strongly implied that Ra's is dead; without the League of Shadows he wasn't much use to them.

Different time zones on different Earths? Actually, given that they in different years, it brings up the question of how old she legally is when it comes to getting her naturalized.

There's a difference of a few months between the two Earths, in addition to the years.
Mr Zoat said:
"How old are you now?"

"Eleven. I'll be twelve in two months."

"The first of June?"

"No, April sixteenth. Why would you think it's in June?"

"Ah, yes, of course. I noticed during my visit to Earth Fifty -your Earth- that the calendars don't quite line up. You've come forwards about seven years and one and a half months."

Huh, three space sectors. How large is that compared to nine galaxies?

I'm just wondering if Grayven thinks he's dealing with DC's answer to the facehuggers when he might dealing with Starro the Conqueror and what is basically his very own starro corps.

I now have the mental image of Ace squeezing a starro to her chest asking Grayven if she can keep him, only for Grayven to tell her that she's still too young to make a pet out of a intergalactic empire. :)

Why would he need to worry about facehuggers since the mainline DC universe has crossed over with the AvP universe quite a few times, and on top of that Batman has a Dalek in one of his equipment vaults...

He isn't.

Grayven's "backstory" AFAIK is that he found a way to an alternate Earth where souls weren't a thing and went there to shred his own, thereby getting rid of any of Darkseid's lingering influence and rebuild himself as he wanted to be.

Barring an on-screen death or unambiguous word of God?
He's alive.
I don't count Luthor assuring OL that certainly, his enemies will catch up with him now that he's lost significant power as evidence of his death.
Especially since Luthor has a clear conflict of interest there.

Al'Ghul survived several hundred years; he didn't do so by incompetence, even with the Lazarus Pits as a trump.
Is he significantly inconvenienced? Certainly.
Dead? I'll believe it when I see the body.
