Gotta love how enlightenment has seemingly been made so cheap that people are assuming that merely feeling a strong emotion is enough to gain it.

I didn't stay up to read the chapter last night, so I couldn't submit "couch" here as a comedic faux correction. My jokes
Darkseid solved the anti-life equation. He can derive a number of theorems from the solved form.

...this might be worth trying to make an ally out of the Queen of Fables for, Grayven. If you're gonna get out of this, you're going to need powerful allies, and I imagine the Queen wouldn't like to have all stories vanish by virtue of everything equalling Darkseid.
Oh gosh, the situation is so bad that the freaking Queen of Fables is a freaking improvement aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

In the Paragon timeline. She never showed up in Renegade, which means she's still available to be recruited. Trust me, I did that playthrough. I was hoping to trap Darkseid in a genie's lamp or something. Didn't quite work out that way.
Attend the tale of Rene-Paul/he had two rings and screamed at a wall/He erred and forged his soul anew/and now comes the time to pay his due...

I figure this is a joke, but I'm pretty sure that she's terrified because she thought she would never have to deal with Anti-Life again, and then it just shows up casually, without anything anyone can do to stop it, and pays her personal attention.

That just changes the question into what was the bigger source of the Anti-Life here. Darkseid or the book.

He'd have to metaphysically re-align to female first; the Star Sapphires don't recruit males because boys are gross.

He thought that Darkseid 'appeared to be buying it' when he was near out of his mind with fear. But whether he's being fooled or not doesn't really have any bearing on Grayven's situation.
Not really. He sent Kanto here during the Renaissance and already knew that Scott and Barda were here. He already knows about Earth.
True.
Might be true, probably isn't.
He also said that he doesn't mind him being sneaky about it.
Good thing he's got a head start there.
A few months ago Darkseid dropped a walking sun on Grayven as a test. If Kryptonians can be cloned using Earth technology you can be sure that they can with Apokoliptian technology. Darkseid is not short of super weapons or super soldiers.
I probably won't steal that......So yeah, the places my mind went. lol.
In general terms? A couple of years.

The thing I love about this chapter is that Darkseid is still a better dad than Superman. He compliments Grayven on his skills (in infiltration and subversion, admittedly, but important skills in the pretending-to-be-a-supervillain line of work) and highlights the bits he thought were especially good, inquires after his girlfriend, makes it clear that it's important to him that Grayven is able to stand on his own two feet... whereas the Big Blue Boy Scout barely even acknowledges that Superboy even exists.
I mean, wow.

We may get to find out if assimilation works on a Father Box.

What head start does he have on an alternative to the Father Box?
Also, would having the Father box open a tube to New Genesis be allowed?
Like parley with whoever makes them there for some motherboxes in exchange for his father box/info on his father box? You would think the New Goding humans would be of interest there, what with the Forever People coming from Earth.

Grayven has given Darkseid the greatest Father's Day gift ever, a son he can be proud of, also a full fledged course on the joys of trolling.
Earth 12 is the DCAU. Earth 50 is Justice Lords.

I would call it "Deliberately Engineered by Darkseid in order to 'HALP' Grayven by teaching him that Life=Pain, thus making him better."
It pisses me off that the only way for Grayven to "beat" Darkseid in this case would be to get back together with Jade, thus doing what Darkseid couldn't and circumventing his "lesson plan" with directly and blatantly opposing his will.

It's not, actually. I specifically checked in the clarification thread.

Fuck teh man.
But I think the rewritten version only applies to Debate, where I don't have to care.
Barda has one, but my comment related to the 'fate worse than death' bit.
If he were suicidally inclined, certainly.
He has a slight credibility problem there.

Pretty sure that people get confused by the color text and it was only a few people. Don't get why people would assume that enlightenment is cheap considering that very few people have it and getting it requires very unique events for people.
