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

She probably thought it'd be an easy fight just because when the Earth-10 Paul showed up he got his ass beat pretty quickly and the idea that there'd be a Paul who can actually put up a fight is a novel one for her.

 

I can't help but picture this batman is an affable Nazi like Hans "The Jew Hunter" Landa from inglorious bastards.

Is Leatherwing Nazi Robin/Nightwing?

 

The only thing worse than a Nazi is a dickishly arrogant incompetent Nazi.

For the Near Eastern civilizations? It depends, some of them were the result of conquest Indo-Aryan peoples and could be painted by the Nazi's as being ruled by an Aryan upper class. Also, according to at least it seems that they were willing to view Iranians/Persians as "Aryans". So, it'd make sense for them to try to claim that most the great civilizations of the Near East are the result of Aryan conquest/migration/rulers.
But a lot of this labeling was political in nature so who knows.

 

Protoforms are created by the allspark. They're essentially "blanks" that haven't had a personality or final form imprinted. They usually turned them into vehicon drones to have a supply of obedient disposable mooks.

 

Leatherwing is their Batman, The Bat is from roughly WWII era America and is sort of like an ex-Robin that's graduated to Batman status. If the very brief skim of his wiki page I did is anything to go by.

 

Depends if she's seen Freeman in action.

Not necessarily.

They may be keeping a close eye on him due to his connection to Karl, but they may not be accompanying him everywhere.

Paragon's morality is...weird.

If he pisses someone off enough then pulling his head out of his ass may be more literal.

He's very good at that.

Sentinel, the local GL, may be proficient but due to the lack of an AI he may not be able to use the more complex functions, kinda like Alan wasn't able to.

Ohh, and I have great news for everyone.

We all thought he was done and finished bringing us joy, but this December he graced us with new life that is sure to fill the hole that was left in our hearts.

Bruva Alfabusa has created a new series called Hunter: The Parenting, and it is GLORIOUS.

To give a wonderful quote from the blatant Big E ripoff.

"Learning to sublimate hate in place of fear is part of becoming a well-adjusted adult. Like me!!!"

Enjoy this early Christmas present.

 

So affable and charming, but still evil.

 

The thing is that Paragon is from a deathworld Earth and he decided to go look for a bigger challenge and picked a fight with the Reach. The "heroes" on Nazi Earth are not having to deal with Magic Nonsense or things like the Light or Planet Sized Starro fleets that fought the Guardians even up. Oh and they had Overman as the big stick.
I'd lay money on Paul and I'd expect it to be worse than when he beat up the JL from the JLAU.

 

A correction:

"it"

 

Thank you, corrected.

Ah. Um.

And if heroes don't, there's a villain origin story.

Yes, this character isn't dressed in quite the same way as her comic counterpart.

Honestly, he's not that alpha. He just wants to hurt people in the service of a greater good that doesn't challenge his idea of self.

Well...

Thank you, corrected.

He was that about sixty years ago. I can't think of a cheerful unpowered old person tech superhero.

 

Well, looks like he won't be becoming my favorite Earth 10 character.

 

Mr Zoat, I noticed that the name of the episode on the TOC is the ff:

But the threadmark for the latest chapter says Krummeskreuz. Which one is correct?

 

Thank you, corrected.

 

Reasonable authority figure is reasonable. A pleasant surprise.

The beam seems to emit viable light. As such it should still effectively blind her while she is firing, visor or not visor.

 

I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm, which flew right over the Baroness' head at SR-71 altitude.

1. Schizo-tech visor that instaneously dims when firing, like your car's rear-view mirror.

2. Required Secondary Powers.

 

I just hope Paul helps his counterpart get his ring and leave’s some note’s to help understand it’s use

 

Or they get that light refraction effect you sometimes see in water or fog. Basically looking down the center of the beams, and the tunnel they see through is semi-transparent from inside.

 

That would be pointless as the Nazis would probably beat him up and take it if he stays... And I don't support the idea of just giving the local Paul a Ring, a lantern and directions to Maltus, without the needed skills he isn't going to take the light fountain from the old lizard goat so that is setting him up for failure. Also I doubt the universe is going to be any better considering the thematic idea that the Nazis won, its the same reason I don't believe universe 666 is a good place to explore either.

If the local Paul will stay in this universe, then give him his ring back, a lantern, the training book OL made, all the data Paul has from his own universe and what he got from the other Paul's, the interdimentional coms equipment to call for help if he gets in trouble and our Paul should probably stick around to train him a little bit before he leaves him on his own.

The local Paul had his orange ring for a few days before he got defeated and his ring was taken from him... He is probably around the skill level of episode 1 Paul.

 

I mean, presumably an incompetent Nazi is better for everyone who doesn't conform to their ideals than one that's competent.

 

That's because Paragon doesn't have any morality.

He just does what he wants. Which often makes it appear as if he has morality because one of his wants happens to be building up things.

 

He's done the opposite here. The Baroness was never shown to have the Ultra Boy power switching abilities, just speed.

 

A competent Nazi follows orders/Laws and has restraint, an incompetent one causes more death and destruction because they are acting entirely on bigotry/assumptions. A lot of the most horrible things the Nazi's did IRL was because of bad science/pseudo science being used as an excuse for sadism and brutality. If Hans Landa had been incompetent, he would have burned down the farmhouse at the start of Inglourious Basterds as well as preventing Lieutenant Aldo Raine from completing his mission.
Also, I did say "dickishly arrogant" as well as incompetent.

 

... Does that mean that the incompetent Nazi would be still alive

 

No, I'm quite certain Hans Landa survived to the end of the film. It's just he had a swastika carved into his forehead. An incompetent would have died much sooner either being caught in the crossfire after exposing Aldo or killed watching the propaganda film with the other top Nazis.

 

What's this supposed to mean?

 

Find the local Doctor Mist?

 

It's a German expression meaning 'only say nice things'.

 

'but I'm'

'carbuncle built'

 

What the heck does Japan look like in this world? Did… did they conquer China or something if the US stayed out of that part of WWII? Regardless, I figure Japan on Earth 16 is likely to have more thaumaturges than wizards, but… if the same is true for this earth, they might be able to help.
