Thanks! That's much clearer now.
Pretty sure that should be "Your powers".

Put a magnet, even a stationary one, close to your computer and see how that works out for you.
Or don't, because we all know how that will end.
Isn't fate out of commission being a construct in Grayvens timeline... and Grayven has given up the orange power ring?

He hasn't given it up, he's just not using it to conserve his now-limited power supply. Construct Lanterns only use up power at the moment of creation, as I recall from the Truggs ordeal and the Hell thing, so Nabu should still be around.

In this story only magnetic metals are magnetic.
It isn't and I will.
Very nearly.
Thank you, corrected.

I love the idea of the Genomorphs adding arcane lore to their hive mind database, especially since they build new subspecies(?) using mythological creatures as a template.
Given their collective intellectual resources, the Genomorphs might be the key to bridging the gap between sorcery and conventional science. Grayven has already given knowledge on biomancy to Cranius and UnCorp, and offered to fund the Metropolis Paranormal Clinic (name?), so there's already an institutional infrastructure for "alternative sciences" in the works.
And if the Genomorphs really are derived from Doomsday, then gradually transitioning from "bio-constructs" to "magic-based lifeforms" will help set them further and further apart from their progenitor.
Grayven really should legally establish guardians or godparents for Lynne in case anything ever happened to him.
I vote for Batman: properly paranoid, financial resources, has experience with troubled youths, has a large support network (i.e. the Justice League), etc.
Robin: "Bat-dad is best dad."
That, and I love the idea of a superhero custody battle between Batman, the Freemans, and whoever else might stick their noses where they don't belong.

It doesn't really have one. It's part of the Department of Metahuman Studies of the Metropolis University.
He has. It's Scott and Barda.
That must have been a hilariously awkward conversation for them.

"You're Lynne godparents now."
"We're not going to-"
"Thanks for agreeing, you're such good people, bye now."
"... I hate him so much."
Which ones? The Earth 16 or Earth 50 versions?

Seems like a stretch to jump from "she's going to die because she needs medical attention inmediately" to "better make sure can control her powers so she doesn't encounter problems in everyday life."

Wallace knew for a fact that Grayven can fix both problems, and the doctors were having trouble treating her due to her control problem. Wallace doesn't know how good Zatanna's healing magics are.

The needles are only used once due to sanitary reasons right? They're not broken after being used, just contaminated.
I wasn't confident in which metals were and were not magnetic at midnight just before I went to sleep.
Provided the baby isn't human, sometimes. We eat chicken eggs after all.
Technically that's always true, regardless of which specific metals are magnetic.
Yes, I get what you mean, but what you mean isn't as funny.
No, Grayven is the godparent. Scott and Barda are the goduncle and godaunt, respectively.
He can't even contact the Earth 50 ones.
In the provided link, she was the one who caused the car crash through her uncontrolled magnetic powers. If Grayven just heals and leaves, she's likely to cause another in short order.

He probably could. It would take a good deal of effort and some trial and error, but they're not totally out of reach.

If you have a solid-state hard drive and a non-CRT display, this won't be a problem at all. I use a magnetic dash mount for my cell phone.
It's not JUST sanitary reasons, but those are the most significant. The sharpness of the edge wears with every use, and after as few as three uses the tip has blunted sufficiently to cause substantially more pain on insertion.
Repeat customers, nice.
On the other hand, Constantine has a lot less magical oomph than a Lord of Order or a nascent New God of magic.
But he knows a lot about the magical community. If strong healing magic was anything other than really rare he could have found a better alternative. Even Constantine doesn't treat deals with Hell as his first choice of options.

I assumed the issue was that by the time in his career where the lung cancer became a problem, he'd developed a sufficiently bad reputation that none of the healers he knew about wanted anything to do with him. Like, by bad reputation, I mean "people around him are overwhelmingly likely to die horribly", not just "he's a dick."
Prince Charon
Just zis guy, you know?
Given what I recall of Frankie in the comics, Grayven may well decide to recruit her, so 'very nearly' fits... though that may not be what Zoat meant.
EDIT: Of course, that's also 'Remember, Wallace, you owe me one, now...'

I argue that those characters are metallokines, not magnetokines, but CALLING it "magnetism" gives a better mental image, both for the readers and for people in-universe. Given that most structural metals ARE ferromagnetic, most exhibitions of the power would look the same anyway.
