Noted that according to the Table of Contents, we've got a two day jump after the next segment, and then two scattered segments and then the next chapter with more Renegade. So we can guess that between Teth Adom and OL, they're about to have the invaders wiped or retreat.
Well, considering OL just finished mopping the floor with all of their heaviest units, yeah, the Loyalist forces should be trying to get out of there real quick. Although I suspect they won't be able to escape OL and will either surrender, or stupidly fight to the death (depending on how each trooper ranks on the 'loyalty to self-preservation' scale).

Also, where are the Green Lanterns during this? Two are off world, but that isn't that much of an obstacle, and I find it slightly out of character that OL hasn't contacted any of them so far.
The Greenies are members of the Justice League, and therefore not allowed into this country.

He flew up to a position directly between the two, blasted their middles out using energy beams, grabbed the pieces with filaments, and transitioned to the ground. I don't think the transition itself did any damage.

Also, testing for the presence of a jammer is just listening to your radio and seeing if the interference is louder than it was before. It's a totally passive operation.
As Avernus said, he transitioned the two wrecks down to the ground, and an anti-teleport jammer caused them to reappear as chunks. OL knows New Gods have access to such jammers, so he tested it with the wrecks before trying to teleport himself around the battlefield.
 
I don't remember with one it its either, I think its invizi text when the reporter asked him how he was going to "kill Klarion".
It'd be this one and he only mentions that it killed satan. In the next episode when he does kill him the invis text says this: "Movements in the patterns of etheric energy… Nullification of all power. Not sure that it's hitting his 'soul self' as well, but that shouldn't matter too much without a directing mind."

They're members of the Green Lantern Corps first, League members second. Preventing interstellar war and advanced species taking advantage of less advanced ones is one of the main points of the GLC existing. If they refused to do their duties due to some small planet's short sighted rules, I'm pretty sure they would lose their rings.
 
Except Lucifer, Michael,
Actually, it probably could.
Sure.
If it ever incarnated, I'd give it a shot.
Not that hard.
We will not be using that thing.
certain if not all Old God's,
Yep, perfectly killable by the Sword.
the Things that came before and can't be killed,
That's where Neverborn come from. Anyway, the point of the Sword is to turn unkillable things into something that can be killed.
possibly primordial beings, and possibly the various emotional entities.
You note that the SI doesn't want to draw it around the Ophidian just in case?
 
interestingly enough I think the best defense aginst the sword of the fallen is to use an avatar thats hard or impossible to stab to death. For example a great diffused mass of darkness/light/elemental mayonnaise or something with a lot of really long limbs and a well protected body. This means a really powerful creature that manifests with a humanoid avatar would actually be more vunralbe to it than a much weaker entity that manifests as something less vulnerable to being stabbed.

Nekron? How do you kill the embodiment of Death? Does that even make sense.

How about Swamp Thing? Since the things actually hittable by the sword are just plant material, would it actually affect him?

A sufficiently on the ball Martian would theoretically be fine. Assuming phasing doesn't just make them immune, they could shapeshift around the blade.
 
With an Entity linked into the structure of the cosmos like the Ophidian I'd as afraid of the consequences of successfully killing her (especially with the Sword) as I would about whether or not it would work at all. It would be like killing some hypothetical "Embodiment of Gravity"; if you kill it, does every planet and star in the universe explode when gravity stops working? If you kill the Ophidian, does Avarice go with her? It sounds like it would be a rather difficult and dangerous thing to test...

Killing the force behind an avatar is one of the Sword's important features; I'm pretty sure it would kill him.

You're making that sword way too OP, why would that thing have any right to be this powerful considering what's it's made of?

Oh then it has to be later... Hmmm.

Can I search phrases hidden with inviz text?

From what I recall of other DC canon and the Wiki it was stated that the only thing in existence which could destroy Lucifer and presumably Michael since they are equal in power was the Presence itself.

Also in the comics Michael kicked the Specter's ass. :D

I meant the other Things, the one's who's name I can't remember that were sealed at the beginning of time. :cry:

They actually did that story line in the comics it was called Lights Out.
 
I imagine swording Necron would kill him, and then his death would create another embodiment of death who may or may not behaving in a manner similar to his predecessor.
 
huh, I thought he was just another example of comic book writers assuming death was evil. In that case killing him would probably just kill him. If this results in the black light dissipating or simply no longer being capable of thought would be interesting to see.

I think there was a later retcon trying to establish Nekron, Death of the Endless, and the Black Racer as the three aspects of Death, but I'm also pretty sure it was an unpopular and disliked one.
