With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

Wolf and Albrecht Krieger fled to one of the Norse afterlives, it might have been Valhalla, after the heroes recaptured the Watchtower.

The Renegade ended up there when purging the British Elite. I forget the place's name, though it might have been Camelot.

 

My bet: Paul and company fix up the demon Superman problem... And a chorus of angels immediately descends to clean up the demon magic and take all the credit.

 

As NGamer11 said, after the starrotech mind control event, Savage and lackeys escaped through a portal to the realm those eight legged horses and their skeletal riders hailed from. Savage spent some time as puppy chow and as “plops,” to use a word from Chrysalis. I had no memory of Wolf’s powers so I figured he might have suffered a similar fate due to regeneration.

 

That happened to Savage because his remains were sucked into space and fell somewhere on Earth to be eaten by hyenas before he regenerated enough to fight them off. Only the Kriegers went through the portal the Viking revenants came from

 

The Caligula Club?

 

No, Ngamer11 was talking about the name of Morgan's kingdom, not the British demon club for psychopaths and morons.

 

Do you really think they would be less fucked with Darkseid then Trigon. Thats like trading a fatal burning for inoperable bone cancer. Trigon kills you, Darkseid destroys you so thoroughly you want to do the same to others before you "Die for Darkseid."

 

No, the clothes and the castles look dated.

Well... I mean, it doesn't.

Until Morgan takes an action, they wouldn't know that she wasn't returning the favour.

 

I mean in this situation Paul is are better off just throwing Trigon or Darkseid at them and be done with it they would get rid of the problem since there is no way to fix that Earth.
It helps that Trigon can only invade when invited
But i will admit that it might make things worse.

 

Oh, yeah, now I remember this.

I think Zoat once mentioned something about him briefly becoming food for Odin's wolves, not the whole hyena thing.

Granted, that was probably years ago, so I may not fully remember, or maybe Zoat changed it.

To be fair, Trigon is basically a being that has destroyed and corrupted multiple universes, while Darkseid hasn't really conquered or destroyed multiple universes, depending on the version, and versions of Darkseid have been beaten relatively easily, while when Trigon shows up it's usually an event of apocalyptic levels of destruction.

 

Savage told Mandated!Paul that he spent 2 months being gnawed on by hyenas because of Paul, and takes his anger out on Paul's counterpart despite intellectually knowing that they aren't the same guy.

 

Sorry if this has been answered, but who has the Ace of Winchesters now?

 

I'm pretty sure that Paul still has it.

He may not have used it since they haven't encountered any real demons yet.

 

Darkseid makes your existence pointless and subsumes your will into his being.
Trigon makes you wish that had happened.

 

Ah, I see it now. Thanks.

That link is dead too. I think that this is the new url for the image you wanted to link.

 

Assuming they don't just Kill everyone in the process deciding everyone is irreparably tainted.
They're kinda assholes like that.

Oh not that Jackass again, welp time to face Demon Captain Nazi & Friends.
And Karl is going to be working out his issues with the Nazis on their faces.

 

I wouldn't have wondered that even if it was him. That kind of almost-non-sequitur is perfectly in character for his irreverent attitude towards those kinds of arbitrary things.

 

I'm not sure. I'll change it.

 

' too '

 

Ok yeah. The Spear of destiny is by design an absolute cheat code. Of course it was enough to stop Shade.
I'm curious if Nazi Earth Shade is dead or just decided to go underground.

 

Best way for Overman to deal with his Uncle Sam is to simply put him out of his misery and hope he reforms into something more sane.

 

Heh, OL sounds so pleased. Of course, there's a practical reason for it. A safe ground for refugees, a staging site for hobgoblin forces to ride out against cultists... Hmm... Wonder if this Earth had a version of his home town? Probably not, given the other DC variations seen so far...

Spoiler: Commentary spoilered for length

Perhaps Hell is afraid to come here... Superman is a powerful foe even without a Kryptonian demon riding him. And if I remember right, there was some manner of deal involved...

Heh. I wonder what Swift thought of the Nazis. I suppose he might have fought them out of a sense of patriotism, either for England or America...

And given their reaction, their relationship wasn't friendly.

The Ray (Earth-10). A counterpart of the Earth-1 original, and probably the latest in his family line to bear the name. He's normally seen aligned with the Freedom Fighters... But that power-set would be one of the worst for Shade to encounter...

Perhaps Swift was grieving for his lost lady love... I doubt Opal City fared well in the outbreak.

And we all know what I think of that. Probably looks at everyone not trying to fight off 'the invasion' as collaborators and traitors to America!

I mean, he didn't seem all that in control at first anyway. He's fought speedsters before, he should have been able to deal with Superman's speed...

Maybe the Sunstone discharge stunned him long enough for his resistance to the 'Mark' to give way... Nice job, heroes...

How quickly? Days? Hours? Minutes? That could be important...

Good to see they weren't fooled by her. Then again, it's not like she was really trying to hide anything about herself...

...They've met once or twice... Wolf didn't come off well in any of their encounters.

So, Karl didn't meet him personally. Probably Hitler was wary of risking his wundermann against the old sorcerers...

...Well, shit. If he's working with Demon Superman, that might explain how humanity was corrupted so quickly. Superman would have claimed the entire world as his, and if Wolf put himself under that rule...

...He'd have been able to mind-whammy nearly all of humanity. Only those nations that didn't bend their knee to Superman would be able to resist...

Though it's probably sturdy enough to be used as such, given how Hitler's clone used it in that Brazil mission.

A central point in common? Somewhere equidistant to all of them? I could see that sort of arrogance creeping in.

Ah, the old 'needle in a haystack' routine...

Ha! Payoff for rescuing him.

I doubt he's in any shape to fight right now... But if he has time to recover...

A little awkward. Having to explain how badly you hurt someone to snap them out of a bout of madness...

I doubt the locals would inclined to help him out. Not without very clear orders to do so...

Even if it's an alternate universe version? I suppose it's just a matter of looking for the out-of-place sounds...

Why do I get the feeling this will end up biting someone in the ass...

Well, they've got a clear target now. The next question after finding the location is 'how well is he guarded?' Because if he's forming the lynchpin of Superman's control, the defences are likely to be massive. Though even if they do take Krieger and the Spear down, there's still the demonically-empowered Superman to deal with. And I don't see him being happy about their actions.

 

I think that if it were that easy to get rid of him then he would have done it by now.

 

Hey, they didn't exactly have a lot of options, what with him trying to eat them.

No, he did not.

His 'brother' wasn't any better.

A reasonable worry to have.

I think he meant is there any connection or commonality between the attack sites, like were they all civilian, all military, did they have some historical value etc.

Because you've been reading this story for years so you know what to expect.

 

Isn't it that every time an embodiment of a nation 'dies' in DC it gets resurrected as being that is a better representation of the countries current state?

 

Not sure if this is the case, but as I mentioned above, if it was that easy for Overman to beat him them he would have probably done it by now.

 

restriction -> restrictions

 

Perhaps the spirit of America will never die? And that everytime Uncle Sam does, he just body swaps into the most suitably American host he can find, like a malignant tumor of freedom?

If it were a magical thing, Germany would be ill equipped to deal with it.

 

Overman is a reluctant killer if he is a killer at all and Uncle Sam is likely very, very hard to kill. Also, Overman and his superiors aren't likely to know of the being's true nature as an embodiment of a nation. There may be orders not to kill Uncle Sam for deeply cynical political reasons.

That's how it worked in this fic at least.

Even that would help as he would be less likely to be a psycho terrorist and become a less murderous freedom fighter.
