Are they from Earth 12 though? They're definitely not from -12, and the world they're from is never specified, just that it's not 16

Only problem is that would go against rules established so far - with magic affecting him more, not less. He would in fact be the perfect body for Nabu to take over, since he could probably mold it like a piece of clay. That, or since he lacks a proper soul, he would leave Nabu vulnerable with his soul stretched too thin to defend against magical threats (his soul would have to fill more space, and couldn't cast with OL's magic)
Not if Fate taking over would just kill Paul. At one point it was specifically noted that Nabu looks for hosts with magic power for some reason whenever possible.Im pretty sure Paul would just develop a soul out of order magic after a day or two, like the lazarus pit the Helmet of Fate channels a lot of magic into a human body but he would be exposed to it constantly and not just a couple hours a day. Meaning he would develop a soul much faster then anti-green lantern Paul.

Because like with his Earth 16 counterpart, his ring has no AI support. He assumed for a very long time that it was unique. Power Ring Green's gauntlet also has no database. As such, Capo Scott doesn't know what its limits are.Why does Capo Scott think that contacting them is tricky when he could contact them with his own ring? Is it possible he doesn't know he can do that, or is there a different reason we don't know?
The reason is because the magic of Doctor Fate is not only the magic of Nabu but also depends on how strong the host is. He explains that he was unable to defeat Klarion when he faced him at the Tower of Fate because his host(Wally) was to weak.Not if Fate taking over would just kill Paul.

He raises his eyebrows slightly. "Not an easy sell. Most of the people you're thinking about aren't actually Made Men. We liquidated a lot of our 'living weapons' so's Doctor Chaos couldn't use them."
Your guessed correctly.Now I'm not sure if this got covered in the comments, but how exactly did the Management manage to jump universes? If I recall Power Ring Blue gave Paul the schematics for dimension jumping jammers to stop future incursions, unless those jammers only worked on the specific variety of dimension jumping that he and the Young Offenders used to get over that one time.
We have had criminals for as long as we've had laws. Why do you assume that 'free range' criminals would be less bad than a single unified group?Also, I really don't see any reason why OL's immediate plan of action wouldn't be to get Wilson out of office (since he's a nutjob) then have the entire Syndicate arrested.
See previous comments about the places with the most superheroes being the places where they're least needed.Peace between two factions might be the ideal status-quo for the syndicate, but Paul comes from a universe where you don't just let criminals live in peace.
Somehow, I utterly fail to feel any sympathy with the Syndicate.
Truly successful ones tend to legitimise themselves in ways I can't talk about on this board.

As mentioned in the bit with Richard earlier, the point of fighting crime is to reduce it to a level at which existing institutions can deal with it, preferably while re-engineering society so that the causes of crime are removed as much as possible.Lack of resources and coordination, I assume.
If it's not even worth trying to destroy organised crime, then why do superheroes on earth 16 target the mob and organisations like The Light, when they'll just be more 'free range' criminals cropping up later?
Just because it's an endless battle to stem the tide of shitty people doesn't mean you stop doing it, otherwise the whole world will be overwhelmed.
The only reason to stop organised crime over disorganised crime is that they're more likely to be ambitious than random thugs. And the Syndicate just had is knuckles so thoroughly rapped that they're destroying their own weapons and assassinating their own members to prevent further escalation.
Can someone link us to one of these speeches? My interest has been piqued; I had no idea that the old JL cartoon had really good writers behind it.
Which is fine, as long as you don't mind the 150 million or so deaths it would take to make it happen.Pretty much every Made Man has dead bodies on their hands though, and they need either life in prison, or the death penalty.
Like, real old-school 'bring out a row of nooses' style, and just do them all at once.
It's better then helping them and being part to killing or putting in positions worse then death many more times that.Which is fine, as long as you don't mind the 150 million or so deaths it would take to make it happen.
Dont the made men only number in the dozens, and they generally dont really seem that powerful, I cant really see how they could cause a death count high enough to justify to not go after them.Which is fine, as long as you don't mind the 150 million or so deaths it would take to make it happen.
Retaw si alobe.Dont the made men only number in the dozens, and they generally dont really seem that powerful, I cant really see how they could cause a death count high enough to justify to not go after them.
Ouch. Point taken.
Ok, but that makes Owlman seem much more insane, if the Syndicate could have wiped out a large part of the population without actually endangering themselves, why did he ever consider a bomb a sensible choice.
He didn't want the bomb for the reasons he stated; that was just a cover to get the other heads on board with the construction. He wanted the bomb in order to blow up every possible reality by transporting it to a "root" reality and blowing it up, which would apparently destroy every reality derived from it.Ok, but that makes Owlman seem much more insane, if the Syndicate could have wiped out a large part of the population without actually endangering themselves, why did he ever consider a bomb a sensible choice.
That would require creating life, which their particular brand of magic doesn't have the ability to do.
That would settle the question of "are viruses alive", at least in Earth -14.That would require creating life, which their particular brand of magic doesn't have the ability to do.
How does it distinguish what is "alive"? A virus is just a few proteins predisposed to self-replication. I can see magic not being able to create souls, but it can't replicate a relatively simple pattern of molecules?That would require creating life, which their particular brand of magic doesn't have the ability to do.
I mean... They already knew the answer to that question given The Divided represents such life.That would settle the question of "are viruses alive", at least in Earth -14.
I mean, he DID already colony drop the Citadel. How's that number stack up?Which is fine, as long as you don't mind the 150 million or so deaths it would take to make it happen.
Less, but they'd mostly be innocent bystanders rather than Citadelians.I mean, he DID already colony drop the Citadel. How's that number stack up
While you're probably correct, I simply have a personal rule. If I can't manage at least competent entertainment level, then I see no reason to bother. I freely admit to being far more of an entertainer then an artist. I don't write because I like to write (I'm perfectly capable of watching the "Movie" of my writing in my head) in as much as my brain tends to pop out ideas, and I like to write things that people enjoy.I'm not sure anyone would get started with an SI work if they set the (quantity and/or quality) standard level with Mr Zoat. Even if you just did a one-shot and posted it here you'd get lots of willing readers.
Well, perhaps. Again, it was my idea for me more than anything as I am more of a fantasy guy then a tech one.Only problem is that would go against rules established so far - with magic affecting him more, not less.

Wat.On the other side, I lack Zoat's impressive DC knowledge, and I haven't actually watched all of Young Justice.
