    Plus he also gets more data on what makes a good Lantern, so it's both business and pleasure:D

    Hey Zoat is Dox talking to Georgia Sivana and is there a potential for a romance there between the two?

    First of all why hasn't he contacted Dox to find olut what the fuck he is playing at, and second now that he knows this idiot is about to hire who knows how many alien mercs I hope this isn't going to get dragged out and he'll just shut this idiot down hard.

    "And that's when I blew up his head, hacked his ship's datanet, and ensured that a flood of extra-terrestrial mercenary companies were no longer en route to turn Earth into the next Tamaran."

    Because this is the point where a somewhat slow-moving although still dire threat to the sovereignty of every nation on Earth suddenly became an imminent threat to the safety of every person on the planet.

    I'm a little confused. Manga Khan is here in an official capacity as a representative of the Orange Lantern Corps, correct?

    A shout out, he's not actually the author downloaded into a robot or anything.

    Other robot assistants are Hein-9, K-Dikk, and later J-Lo, who wants to be Manga's girlfriend.

    L-Ron was briefly a justice league member, actually, he ended up accidentally possessing Despero's body.

    Presumably why the Young Justice cartoon has L-Ron be Despero's majordomo. Which looks more like Kelex, which is kind of weird but whatever.

    But it's not like there couldn't be more than one L-Ron.

    Ok well I don't hold that position
    From my impression, the argument here was about whether or not paul(s) assisted with breaking the multiverse

    So, quite diverse. I see there's no bias against the synthetic-origin entities... Quite the equal-opportunity employer, then.

    Ah, the joy of stock body types. Polite, at least.

    Ah, they're doing the dramatic entrance schtick, and failing?

    Come on, OL, play along.

    "Lord-Lantern Manga Khan demands to know: who locked this door?!"

    Boy, what a class act this guy is... He'd have done great on the Vaudeville stage...

    And OL was expecting this, wasn't he? To be honest, I'd probably be smiling at least.

    Because Vril Dox II is a dick.

    What is this, Christmas Panto? Should we be calling out "Oh no it isn't!"?

    I can hear the virtual sigh. Good gods, this guy needs a new boss.

    And of course 'union' is their most foul swear word.

    Amusing image, diving behind a burly buddy. Given that some aliens have what pass for superpowers to humans...

    offscreen: "I hope it's worth all the noise!"

    Well... That's anti-climactic. Perhaps you should service them more often?

    Of course there's one in the flowers. It's the style of it, you know. Presentation!

    Good thing they weren't orange lasers, at least. But I suppose the red ones are cheaper. And you won't profit by splurging on fancier death-rays.

    Because I get the feeling OL would prefer otherwise. Though I get the feeling L-Ron might get a little grabby towards his boss then...

    Lovely personality coding. Body language works wonders.

    Took a few tries, but it finally worked. Persistence win?

    Definitely need to have a chat with him later, OL.

    ...Why am I not surprised? I mean, it makes sense a sapient cloud of gas wouldn't suffer physical fatigue...

    Wait for it.

    I see the crew are well-used to their boss' quirks.

    Don't spoil his monologue with facts, L-Ron! He's clearly on a roll.

    As annoying as that will be. I restate my comment about Kooey Kooey Kooey Island.

    Because how would these guys know the difference between legitimate governments and illegal organisations? Or, more accurately, care?

    But? Prior commitments?
    offscreen: "Do we clap now?"

    "The day I graced your village was the greatest day of your life... But for me, it was Tuesday."

    Thank goodness OL can regulate his bloodflow. Imagine the migraine he'd have if he couldn't... And I hope those plans include a call to Dox, as a 'What the fornicating hells were you thinking?'

    L-Ron floats in place for a moment.

    Except he can't do that because he would lose the support of Dox and the rest of the Orange Lantern Corp.

    Mr Zoat has Comic King reached out to Mars at all? Technically speaking they would also be a great market and are spacefaring planet.

    There fairly isolationist, despite possessing space flight for possibly centuries, and they may also not have many things Khan would be interested in.

    Brazil must be salivating at the idea of hiring some extraterrestrial mercs to take care of their tribal problem.

    For him, the day he graced Earth seemed to him the most important day of Earthlings' life. But for Paul, it was Friday.

    'passers-by'?

    That was what was said about the original comics...



    If we wanted to be really cruel to the author, then we might request a scene where Manga Khan meets Mojo Jojo... Excessive melodrama on one side, epic rants in third person on the other...

    I think I detect a certain flavour of Monty Python here... Also, this smells like an invite for Lobo to appear on the scene... (If this was a Marvel world then I'd say Death's Head...)

    As far as I know the PPG-verse isn't within the Marvel-multiverse...

    It's a bit too post-modern for Marvel, who tend to take themselves more seriously...

    I suspect not. He's a bit out on the fringes of the X-Men, and the X-Men are rather out on the fringes of the Marvel-verse. Yes, Mojo has interacted with other Marvel characters, but not in a really major way.

    Marvel Paul adopted Rogue, who may go to the Xavier Institute for training, so there is a chance for that version of the SI to meet Mojo.

    In fairness to Manga while Paul is attractive his personality may sometimes leave some things to be desired.

    Also is anyone getting any Kochin and Dr Wheelo vibes with how things are going to go.

    The Abridged versions I mean, with Kochin being made as a hilariously senile lunatic who constantly makes things worse.

    I predict that Paul is going to try to convince Manga to try and reason only for the sapient gas cloud to misinterpret every word and do something worse.
