    I don't think this is over yet, Krona mentioned something about some of this being part of Time Trappers experiment not his and Time Trapper is still very obessessed with getting his own world back, when else is he going to have access to this many versions of himself to try and do something about it?

    Plus nothing that would be the cause for Pariah's arrival has happened yet.

    I think we're about to see some shenanigans.

    Ayy, Anti-green gets a win! That's enough for me to call this arc a success. Sad-paul is now Gold-paul.

    Zoat you wrote Komand'r and then Koriandr there when I think it should be just one.

    Think it should be Koriandr in any case.
    Kom may love Red and if this is another variant that is involved with one of the Paul's then she may love him as well, but I don't think she would be that good at using a power ring, unlike Kori who is much more naturally loving while Kom tends to be more reserved and cautious with personal emotions.

    So, not really that relevant to what's happening, but in honor of AG Paul escaping his ring, I feel like I should ask:

    Shouldn't Anti-green rings be magenta?

    It is so appropriate that anti-green Paul received a Gold ring (free of Oan malware) instead of a classic Green. Good for him and I hope whoever wielded it before left some goodies in their pocket dimension.

    Honestly this has been such a good payoff after all the glimpses into other Pauls. I hope the time trapper plot thread finally gets resolved but if the Pauls don't hang around and trade notes, even if we only get the cliff notes, I will be very disappointed. The funny thing is that someone giving Paragon the YJ plot notes would be basically pointless now for everything except telling him how to activate Beast Boy's powers.

    Hope Paul Wynne can get a ring and lantern when Clayface is deposited back in the DCAU. He's played Ironman mode long enough.

    I wouldn't be too surprised if Anti-Green Gold Paul manages to get a green(gold?) enlightenment after a while.

    Again, be very glad he tried to take Grayven before this, even if the Pauls aren't aware of that. I'm still assuming the Sword of the Fallen knocked out the Maltusian Symbionts that would make this a much, much tougher fight...

    Worse, because they aren't stepping on each other's efforts, like the Pauls probably are.

    Oh. Oh, my, is that Gaul, the Anti-Green Lantern?

    Yes, yes it is. One of the few Pauls to be better off in this situation. No doubt the Ring would be demanding to be worn for the sake of gathering data...

    OL, you are not going to be changing this Paul's mind. Honestly, he could be one hell of a Green Lantern with the Will he's learned.

    Fuck yeah! Weaken the enemy while empowering yourself! And doing it with style!

    Honestly, you've got to wonder about some of the Pauls' choices out there. I mean, some are understandable given their lack of a Lantern to keep charged. Others... Not so much.

    It's like some higher power was playing silly buggers with time... Or an Author experimenting...:p

    A lot of the changes are down to the environment thy found themselves in. Look at what Fallout!Paul did to himself...

    <Fistpump Data-.

    <Rainbowdash-ohcomeon!.gif> Cockblocked!

    True enough. So many of these Pauls and Jades have interesting stories, and at most we get a few thousand words in between other chapters... Sometimes you just want to know more... I suppose that's what fan-Omakes are for...

    Damn, girl. All business. Alan's training and her character shining through.

    It's like the last half-hour of a big event movie. A roller-coaster of light and sound...

    Let's try this again: <Fistpump Data.gif> Finally, Gaul gets some green!

    YES. I only hope he can score a lantern to go with the ring.

    And there's the Peter Wynne Clayface. I wonder who else didn't fit in?

    Oooh... Mystical. Jedi Battle Meditation, eat your heart out. That's one way to channel multiple lights.

    Bit off more than you could chew, didn't you? Give it up, you blue bastard, and take the lumps you've got coming...

    New Earth's Starfire, slinging a Ring? Damn impressive! They got almost everything they need for some White Light action...

    Oh, now what?

    And there's the last part. Time to taste the rainbow, Krona! Interesting that Maul went for Blue rather than his usual orange. Wonder which Paul's ring that is? Baul's?

    Woo! Cue the victory music, and start the looting, fight's done... Unless Maul plans to try something...

    Man... Anyone else feels like they need a cigarette? To quote Abridged!Alucard: "Houston, we have nooo problems..." And it felt great to see Gaul get out of his shitty situation with the Anti-Green ring. That's definitely going to make for some interesting scenes when he returns home.

    ...they've had some cranial work done...
    Something feels off with the start there.

    Now, if they don't share Tech and Magic databases between themselves before leaving, then I'm calling Deus Ex. That's pretty much one of their defining motivations.

    He did, but considering what he's been pursuing I could see him snagging a blue ring from somewhere.

    Heh. What are the odds Syndicate!Paul is on the tuning fork?

    Yeah, that'd be nice. They just sit down for pancakes with lemon and sugar, and discuss their experiences, likes, dislikes, dreams for the future, and see if any of the others want to leave their new world for one of the others.

    Hopefully Paul can recruit a couple of them to come to his place.

    The end result would be hilarious with a pile of Pauls showing up there and everyone elses reaction that there are more of the Cake Man...

    True, he had an orange ring...but he's not so much WANTING his universe back as just HOPING he could bring it back with all this time travel mess.

    He did, but he just now summoned a blue ring to his hand to help the rest with making the white light.

    Recruitment seems unlikely, but maybe he can come and visit their universe sometimes like renegade did with Earth 50

    A few might just do that if only to get a lantern and because his Earth is nicer than the one the ended up on.

    Hmm... If I remember the timeline for Peter Wynne right, Clayface's abduction came long before his encounter with Batman. <Quickly checks.>
    Yep. His appearance in 'Covert Community' during 'Gammadion', where Clayface gets abducted in 2002, takes place before Batman visits him at the end of the earlier 'Doppelgängered', in 2005.
    So unless Peter Wynne was very discreet about having a functional Orange ring and lantern during the earlier chapter, it doesn't look good for chances of Clayface bringing Peter a present. Unless Mr Zoat is prepared to retcon things. Which Crises have a habit of causing, anyway.

    That's probably not a good thing given how much of a villain Time Trapper is...

    But to where?
