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

Nah, it can always get worse.

If you stopped Hitler and the Holocaust but then later the Soviets and Allies would blow up everyone with nukes than the moral decision would be to reinstate Hitler.

 

The status quo sends a new champion.
I doubt it will be any more effective than the last attempt.

 

What about Karate Kid? He doesn't have any powers either other than being a real good fighter.

 

He's an exception because he's just that good of a fighter.

 

Reminds me of someone

No Such Thing as 'Just' Human

 

Eh due to fixing time all she will do if she tries to fix time is to create an alternate timeline cause the multiverse is back, including Elseworlds.

 

There have been many versions of the Legion, but as for the first incarnation... Not really a lot of detail.

 

Records of Batman have lead to the conclusion he has powers.

 

I want to see the Legion react to seeing Batman in action and then refuse to believe he doesn't have powers.

 

Hey,
Is there a youtube playlist with all the songs Zoat has linked throughout the story.

 

To be fair, he pretty much runs entirely on "comic book writers write 'peak human' as mildly holistically superhuman" and "money is a super power"

 

He can fist fight kryptonians and can kick the ground so hard he causes an earthquake in a manner that cancels out an existing earthquake.

Karate Kid is someone who Charles Atlas'd himself into superpowers and no one pretends otherwise.

 

Links for your perusal-

Karate Kid can wrassle with Superboy, kick a meteor into oblivion, and dismember monsters capable of going toe to toe with Superman.

 

Almost certainly not. Though if some manperson made one, I'd put a link to it in the contents post.

 

So, this has the potential to be very stupid. If the Legion wants the Reach to win on Earth enough for there to be people out in the universe to found the United Planets later there's likely to be some vaguely super villainous stuff they want her to do.

 

I remember/think I remember Invite Them In, The Sun Is Also A Warrior, Never Split The Party, and Demonbane. I'm sure I'm forgetting some, unfortunately. Doing a proper reread is... Daunting.

 

A few more that set the tone for some of the pony stuff upon their wandering through.
That did lead to 'Dumb ways to Die' sneaking in there.

 

Giff? What or who is that?

Explain? My LOSH knowledge is entirely based on the tv series cartoon.

Hypertime?

If Superman never got kidnapped to the future then Karate Kid might not have joined because it was Superman that recruited him. I only know the tv series.

 

The universes of DC multiverse are static and independent, you could blow up Nazi Earth and not effect Batman is a Vampire Earth.

Hypertime is alternate universes of the "all possible decisions happen somewhere" type. It's an alternate axis of dimensional travel.

So there is a hypertime universe where Superboy got Chinese takeout and another universe where he got pizza for lunch, whatever.

Zoat, in this story, made it a new thing that allows alternate timelines due to time travel shenanigans to continue to exist, but in DC canon hypertime literally predates the creation of the YJ universe, so he took liberties there, writer's prerogative.

 

Wait didnt the whole Crisis on Infinite Pauls cause the downstream to now operate as a branching deal instead of erasing? So there is nothing to fix.

 

The LSH might not know that. If so, then Paul will need to explain it to them.

 

Ah... Yeah, I skipped any songs in the pony chapters.

Weirdly enough, this is not that straightforward. Hypertime was introduced in The Kingdom, which came out in 1999. Young Justice, as a DC comic line, started in 1998. Obviously, With This Ring follows the cartoon continuity rather than the comic continuity, but Robin, Superboy, and a teen speedster (Impulse), operating as a team in Happy Harbor, mentored by Red Tornado, in a series called Young Justice, predates the introduction of hypertime!

 

Which would be why I specified YJ universe, since the age of the concept of Young Justice wasn't actually germane.

Earth-16 was created as an identical replica to New Earth in Infinite Crisis, 2005/6, and then was made distinct from New Earth in 52.

So again, Hypertime was a thing before the YJ universe even existed.

 

Though now he is a real magician.

From the 64th century if I remember correctly.

So it technically was still you.

That's what you get when dealing with Paul.

Or anything else.

Kryptonians are far from the only flying brick species.

 

Ah, yes, Chandler's law: if your story's not going anywhere, add a new character with a gun.

 

Or some obsessive supervillain-in-waiting (cough Brainiac cough) decides things should be changed back to the 'proper' way time is 'supposed' to operate, destroying all the other new alternate timelines so there is only the one true and proper timeline he can keep his self appointed watch over.

 

I want to see Brainiac 2 meet Brainiac 5. We probably won't understand what they say exactly, but they'll either get along swimmingly, or hate each others' guts on first sight.

 

They are very close in personality and as the saying goes, familiarity breeds contempt.

 

Oh lord.
Parallel timeline Legions?
Is that Superboy Prime's music i hear?
Funky because it's not clear what the Superman YJ canon re the Legion is but the Parallel timelines and adult Supes throws it to Legion of Three Worlds adjace.
(But hey, you never know which Legion will show.)
