Paul: ... But, silver lining, you won't have to deal with John Constantine if you join the Justice League. He's got no connection to the League, and no fans on the League. At no point will he be invited to any meetings, nor invited into the field to operate alongside other Justice League members. You will never have to worry about Constantine joining the League either, as a quorum of members will never approve of him.
Anna Fortune: Who the fuck is Constantine?

There's a difference between telling everyone, and telling someone who specifically voiced an objection to Constantine. (Or even telling someone whom you can reasonably surmise would voice an objection to Constantine.)
 
This guy is a great Magician with thousands of years of magical knowledge, in that time frame he could have empowered a woman to be his near equal as he has done with many others by creating magical artifacts that make them powerful and at times extend their life times, he has chosen to NOT do so and instead prefers to prey on women significantly younger than him that is what makes him a pedo.

Even assuming he has made such artifacts, who's to say that he learned to make them soon enough that this would work? If he's lived 500 years (using a method that he cannot give away), then finally learns a method that he can give away, he isn't going to find any 500 year old women around. He could extend their lifetimes, but they would still be younger than him at the moment he did that. Would you expect him to meet someone, give her immortality, leave, and come back 500 years later so they could be of similar ages?
 
As resurrection goes the Frankatein method combined with modern mad science is one of the best, as long as the patient has not been dead for long.
 
Y'know, I can't remember whether it was Paul or Grayven who dealt with Cursitor Doom. I want to say it was Grayven in an attempt by the various World Governments, especially the UK, to handle him. I honestly cannot remember though. If it was Grayven then he's going to probably have an interesting talk with Master Doom in the near future I expect.
It was Grayven and it was just the English Government, though they did attack American locales
 
...that loogie is going to come back to haunt us, I just know it.
Possible insectoid unman with inherited venombuster enhancement? Unlikely, but possibly also divinely awakened (there are a few myths that involve godly bodily fluids coming alive, some of which may have actually happened in this world). Nah, there's no cause for concern.
 
When reading the part about Grayven grappling with that yucky insectoid, I couldn't help but think "And in another universe at just this moment, OL is having waaay more fun than Grayven is." Grappling is still involved, however.

Typos:

I nod, taking a syringe in my right hand and doing by best to suck up the larger congealing pools.
"my"

Cranius turns around on Otto's shoulders to grin at me. "Excellent work, my boy! Usually taken samples from zhe insectoids takes us weeks and costs us a great deal in equipment."
"taking"

"Zhe next round of she implantation procedures begin on Wednesday, unt zhen I will be fully occupied with zhe testing."
"zhe" I think?

Paul can reasonably assume that pretty much every Mage knows Constantine. Dude has a massive rep. When Zatanna took Tim Hunter to the Bar of Eternity and it was filled with demons, gods, and magic users of all stripes, Constantine showed up, and they all froze. All of them. Paul went to Erebos and Melinoe knew who he was. Paul was surprised when Vulcan didn't. It's John Constantine, it's reasonable to assume everyone knows him and that very few like him.

However, Lone Courier 6 was right, the joke seems to have gone over your head. The joke was referring to this quoted bit;
Regardless of who his next candidate is Paul should open up with ...
 
Batman is a baseline human with no special powers and abilities.

In comic books, "I'm a baseline human but I got exotic training" means a lot.
That argument won't work on Maxx. He has, if I recall correctly, directly stated a hatred of Batman as a superhero, and if not, it's been strongly implied, to the point that he sometimes seems to willfully pretend to be unaware that his opinion is not shared or reflected in-setting*.

Good try, though.


(*Although YJ!Batman is not as 'BATMAN' as JLU!Batman or other versions of the character, he's still clearly considered a serious presence.)

...that loogie is going to come back to haunt us, I just know it.

Also, if Zoat brings back the Renegade Booger as a villain later on, I'd... well, I'm not sure what I'd do, actually. Maybe as an April Fools chapter? It doesn't seem in keeping with the tone.

"Zhe next round of she implantation procedures begin on Wednesday,

Should be "zhe" instead of "she" I think, @Mr Zoat

....DUMP HER, PAUL. No one who willingly drinks instant coffee can be trusted! The BARE MINIMUM is drip coffee! I don't even drink coffee and I know THAT! She's gotta be a Skrull or something!

It's INSTANT, you monster. That's the "I have a coffee drinker in my house and I don't drink coffee THIS WILL GET RID OF THEM" option! No TRUE human being chooses to drink instant!
dude, of course you think that. North American Instant brands are AWFUL as anything but 5am "get the fuck up! get the fuck out!" affairs. but their are some amazing instants out their (once made my brother bluescreen with pure bliss from the taste of this Venezuelan brand stuff i once had.

Finally! Long Live the Republic of Australia!

nah, that nation needs to follow its true calling:



the Australian-Hungarian empire!
 
Pity Zoat isn't a Simon Dark fan.

Who better to send to the Unmen then a guy who figured out how to combine magic and surgery to make a twenty souled superwizard and returned a dead cop to active duty?

And the guy lives in Gotham. Yes, Gotham has a Frankencop. He's dating a coroner.
 
"Zhe next round of she implantation procedures begin on Wednesday, unt zhen I will be fully occupied with zhe testing."
'zhe'?
edit: as others have mentioned

you are correct, it was Grayven, he spent time staggering around Doom's castle with his eyes gouged out.
 
@Mr Zoat will Paragon go down this route too?
Probably not.
I'm really interested in what Father Mattias would say about the Un-Men and the Frankensteins.
Oh, he's not prejudiced about that sort of thing.

Grayven.

Pretty sure the answer is "no". The introduction of the Un-Men was a "mirror episode", where we got a full Renegade story with a Paragon supplementary; the latter made it very clear that Paul's handling of the situation was...not exactly as harmonious or productive as Grayven's had been, and he's not exactly on speaking terms with the good Dr. Cranius.
 
Batman is a baseline human with no special powers and abilities.
Yes? And he is dreadfully boring. Not sure if I would ship him with OL either. Not sure Bruce would be a caring partner, plus he's married. Granted, I do know a lot of married men look for gay hookups it's quite annoying) but I think Bruce is better then that.

In comic books, "I'm a baseline human but I got exotic training" means a lot.
I know..and it's dreadfully inconsistent. One moment they call from a dangerous height and break an ankle, and the next they get smashed through solid brick walls, only to spit some lip blood and take off like nothing happened.

That argument won't work on Maxx.
>.> Oh no...they're on to me.

I do hate Batman with the burning intensity of a thousand suns, yes.

to the point that he sometimes seems to willfully pretend to be unaware that his opinion is not shared or reflected in-setting*
Au contraire my alphabetical friend. I am well aware that Superman himself has stated on at least one occasion that Batman is the most dangerous man on the planet. (Though whether this is still Canon with all their Universe reboots, is unknown to me) This is, of course, whenever the Joker doesn't occupy that spot.

So I am aware of the canon...I simply reject it.

(*Although YJ!Batman is not as 'BATMAN' as JLU!Batman or other versions of the character, he's still clearly considered a serious presence.)
But Superman is still vilified (his treatment of Kon) for no good reason. Just want to point that out.

Also would like to ask...how many times has Batman (the Bruce Wayne version) been turned into a vile child murder solely for the purpose of assassinating his character? Seems to happen to Superman and Wonder Woman all the time....
