Thank you, corrected.

This should either be "you're thorough" or "you've thought."

Thank you, corrected.
Ugh, this is why I shouldn't do timeline corrections first thing in the morning.
Oh right! Yes, there is supposed to be a substantial delay. Grayven was seriously injured and a lot of things had to wait until they knew whether he and Captain Atom had been successful or not.
I'm seeing it in the default colour, which is correct as Guy wasn't focusing when he said it.Typo Edit:
This has color set as greed. It should be green instead (which is funny since greed as a color would imply orange instead)
1: Let's say not.
3: Tricky. Grayven wants to release history books from someone who lived through those eras. However, Savage doesn't have a perfect memory and has a very particular viewpoint. And of course Grayven doesn't particularly want to explain how he got that history.

Not really. It's come up a couple of times, but normal martial arts just aren't useful for people with super strength or super toughness. They assume things that just aren't true. Wrestling is useful, submission and choke holds and joint locks. Striking isn't.

It shows as color: greed in the bb code editor just FYI though...
And while I was going to say that the rest of the GL text was green, after that we have some text where the start with no color that then gets green and some of it is not green at all so I guess that makes sense, I will correct it in the epubs

Then it's just stupidity.
Well, seeing how the theme of this arc appears to be "supervillains are dumb" I think that is perfectly in character.

Grayven could curbstomp Paul by using the formula that gives super speed + the SotF. Also Grayven could summon Ophidian or Parallax too, since emotional entities are easy as pie to summon in this setting for some reason.

@Mr Zoat here are the epubs I made up to now.
The Season 1 epub is completed and up to date as of 25/01/2017
The Season 2 epub up to date with the latest chapters and corrections
epub for Season 1 (Episodes 01-26) [MediaFire][MediaFire Alt. Formatting][GoogleDrive] by @Chris6666 (corrections added up to 25/01/2017)
epub for Season 2 (Episodes 27-52) [MediaFire][MediaFire Alt. Formatting][GoogleDrive] by @Chris6666 (chapters up to 07/03/2017)
Note: The Alt versions have background color deep blue and default text color white. Also the transparent text has a darker color as both the background and the text color, and it is also in black borders.
Also both versions have XenForo like threadmarks between episodes while the Alt Versions has similar threadmarks on the individual chapters

When I was making the epub and saw text colored greed and I was like "Did Mr Zoat meant to write orange and put greed instead" and then I read the actual text and realised that no, it was supposed to be green instead.rofl::lol
The callback was because back here I found a similar error were color: red was instead color: rage

Yeaaahh, when I said this:
I was making a joke and a callback!This has color set as greed. It should be green instead (which is funny since greed as a color would imply orange instead

M'crazy.
Ah hell I had forgotten that Grayven had Velocity Ten and Paul has no answer to that until he possibly cracks the Garrick formula. Yeah you're right, it'd be a curbstomp because super speed is fucking hax.
Regarding the emotional entities, I'm guessing that summoning either one available to him would effectively cause Grayven to undergo permanent identity death and go full supervillain. Both of them resonate well with his New God identity, meaning he'd be unlikely to use it to split himself away from them (if that's even possible), and he lacks the support network and specific circumstances that convinced the Ophidian to let go. Summoning either of them would mean he'd definitely win the fight, but it'd basically be a pyrrhic victory as 'Grayven' as he existed previously would effectively cease to exist as Grayphidian or Paraven proceed to conquer the galaxy.

More of a 'can't believe immortals can die' thing, but I think I get your point - he considered Mordru to be unkillable and therefore undefeatable, and thought the same of himself.
Hmm, If we go meta with that point of assumptions of continued power being wrong... Has Zoat every said where the story would end, like when Paul leaves Earth for example? Because 'Last Supper' could refer to Grayven's last victory before something like getting killed by a last-ditch King of Tears release, with his afterlife being part of the Source Wall (don't know how that works for New Gods).
Of course, even if it's not the end of the story, OL/Grayven could be separated from their followers for a time right after they off the BBG of the current section, resulting in chaos as their followers have to move forward with the plan without help and with the possibility that their leader is gone forever - only to return after three days, stronger and wiser. And then supporting them only with more distant knowledge and power, while residing in a different, 'higher' realm?
Hmm hmm... Lord of Order plus Lord of Chaos interaction & Lord of Tears dimensional fuckery results in our SI's switching places? Each residing in a world where their double took the opposite path of focus, yet recently alienated his allies by attempting their own tactics?
Paul in a world where his double bulldozed through others objections and focused on ingroup empowerment, yet just finished eliminating the Light by forging a working alliance between government and Justice League?
Grayven in a world where his double toadied to the JL and focused on helping what seems like every one other than himself, yet just pissed of both the Light and the JL by assassinating a member of each and attempting to usurp their mantles of power for his own allies?
Each gaining an understanding of the strengths, weaknesses and alternate takes on their own specialty, and seeing the same of the one they avoided?
Skillgains? Personal growth? Crossovers? Tantalizing hint yet denial of promises of future content?
It may be more likely than you think...
FakeEdit: Why yes, I am tired, incoherent and out of it.

Hah, they think we're near the end of this. Hah. Haha. Hahahaha.
We are now, if one is generous, approaching the 1/5 point of WTR. We're not getting close to done with this until the second season of Young Justice, which will begin in 4 1/2 years.

Third. There's another Season coming, may The Jumped Up Elementals help our author.

Zoat's interpretation has consistently been that baseline Earth-16 humans are tougher and stronger than baseline Earth-Prime humans -- the "average" line on Earth-16 is where the "athlete" line is here.
IIRC he said that it's likely that the events of third season will have been butterflied away by the events of WtR.

Considering that Season 3 is likely to feature Darkseid, it's unlikely that it would be compatible with everything this fic has revealed about New Gods, even completely aside from SI's influence.
I ran into a similar issue when Supergirl Season 2 introduced a different Superman from the one my fic had already featured.
What kind of Superman did you use? Because the Supergirl one is fairly generic...
