Maybe he's the sort to ritually cleanse himself and manually nullify any object that could hold spell-based traps or spying setups. Active plans and procedures over passive defenses.

"aneurysm" is more common, even in the USA.

Technically, yes. However, his bizarre soul structure would make it very difficult for him to use it. It would be easier to sponsor a random person off the street.

I didn't really get the impression that Zoat's Anti-Life is infectious, per-se, unless you have something like a whole piece of it. Exposure has the expected effects, but unless the damage is so severe as to be permanent, the exposed will slowly return to normal.
Graven isn't going to get better in this manner, but thats because he wasn't exposed, he had a chunk of Anti-Life forcibly embedded in his soul. It's like the difference between radiation sickness, and having a piece of the chernobyl reactor implanted in your chest.

Cool analogy. Unrelatedly, I just had an amazing idea for an Iron Man Elseworlds.

You can close your eyes and be blinded to the threat of Evil Whales (As opposed to just regular evil Welshmen) but they will still be out there!
The only instance I know of was when someone put a couple of bullets in her skull, dumped her in the sewer, and Croc thought "Oh hey, delivery."

I'm betting on Black Lanterns rather than anti-life. Remember the twisted evil baby going on about "so empty" and "hear the sound of eternal silence"? That sounds like the "nothing at all" that we're getting here.
Edit: Although, reading further, there was a suggestion that anti-life might actually have been involved there.

I'm sorry, anything with the stench of the Injustice timeline is automatically put into the trash bin where it belongs.

I feel like this is a better term.
The sled I envision, specifically, is the one used in the one episode of Mythbusters - where they concluded the episode by decimating a car with one.
All that was left was shrapnel.
The one upside? I highly doubt Nekron is involved - so at most there is only one Black Lantern involved.
I wonder how Paul would explain this to the team? I would think delving into Black Lanterns would bring up White Lanterns...
And the corresponding Entities...
(Does anyone think Origin isn't a good name for the White Entity? It's the only Entity that is never clearly named - and is very tongue-in-cheek)

Huh. Didn't expect this to become a literal Maryanne Sugden story.
I kinda feel like we might be overreacting to the black text a little bit. Black text doesn't mean black light any more than red text means red light. The poor man studied to be able to feel the souls in the world around him, and he has now had a brief moment of existential crisis from witnessing a form of death so complete that it leaves no sign that the victim was ever alive.
The Black Light was also wielded by Dark Druid (I thing that was his name?), the only one of Klarion's 'Split world' helpers to remain at large.

Anything that can do that is still very not good, and since Nekron influenced the world through Black Hand long before he rose, I'm not convinced he's not doing the same with Dark Druid.

Especially since neither really fits the description.
The Anti-Life Equation has never been linked to a religion on Earth that I can recall. It was implied that some demon worshipping Gothamite witches were actually worshipping Darkseid by mistake, but that's the closest I can think of.
Nor can I recall Nekron ever being worshipped, other than Black Hand his interest in people is killing them.
Yes, a druid learned how to manipulate the black light, but I'm pretty sure if the characters meant druidism they'd say druidism and not "dead religion."
"Dead religion" is code for a hipster religion no one has ever heard of, not something pretty much everyone in the western world has heard of.
Honestly, the "no echoes of their life which should be there even in death" sounds like soul eating to me. The black light doesn't make people deader than dead, or else that would happen to everyone, since Nekron runs DC's waiting room for souls, an aspect that Zoat has said he's keeping in this story just recently.
And anti-life is all about emotional manipulation, in that case I'd expect Question to pick up loneliness, alienation, fear, despair, mockery, condemnation, misunderstanding, guilt, shame, failure, and judgement, not nothing.
Combining soul eating with religion, in the DC franchise, the first person that pops into my mind is Trigon. Who has been worshipped as a god, and has been known to eat people's souls as a power up. When trapped magically, he freed himself by eating every single soul in his native universe.
DC being DC, there are probably other beings that have been shown to consume souls and be linked to a religion.

Did you read final crisis?
I didn't see a mention of the Anti-Life Equation as the dark side of the Source in there, or since the Anti-Life Equation was an entity there were you just lumping it in with the depiction from Cosmic Odyssey?
Which reminds me, I was reading a New Gods comic from the eighties I believe, in which Highfather called the Source "The Life Equation."

No.
What?
I don't understand what you're saying here. I'm saying that the anti-life equation has been portrayed in different ways.
