I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade but I feel MAWS’ final villain is going to end up being Doomsday (with an show original backstory), and we all know what Doomsday does.
(It would Also be a nice parallel to S2 E8 name being “The Death of Clark Kent”)
if MAWS Clark dies I would cry a river.
I am going to begin a series of posts where I explain why certain abilities from across fiction would be good counters to a flood invasion from the Halo universe.
First up we have: DECAY'S EVOLVED FORM from My Hero Academia
Decay belongs to one of MHA's main antagonists Tomura Shigaraki.
The base gives him the ability to completely disintegrate anything he touches with all five of his fingertips. While that doesn't sound all that threatening it is DECAY's evolved form that allows Shigaraki's DECAY to spread from one thing to another.
Picture it like this: Shigaraki touches the ground which causes his DECAY to spread to anything and everything making contact with the ground.
In canon this ability allowed him to destroy half a city in an incredibly short amount of time with barely any effort at all.
This makes it extremely suited to fight the flood because it doesn't require direct contact with them, can destroy hundreds if not thousands of them at once, turns them into dust which prevents the spread of spores and destroys the posibility of any left over matter from the contaminating other people or natural resources.
The ability also no longer requires all 5 fingertips to activate, though reducing the number of fingers reduces its speed and range.
The only mayor downside to this ability is that the user is not inmune to its effects.
I've seen a lot of people complain. about it but honestly?
I adore the new suit, it has everything I like in a Superman suit.
The armour like texture that actually looks like it protects him, a regal/elegant look, the finger covering, the golden accents, the semi belt, the longer boots, the shoulder pads (people hate them but i love them) etc.
It represents his growth as a character and i love that too.
I love love the new suit, it is among my favorites ever.
I liked the trunks while they were here but i am kinda glad they are gone.
One of the most, if not the most heartbreaking thing I can think of throughout the different Death of Superman stories out there is that 90% of them are being broadcasted through television nationwide.
Which means the Kents are watching their son get bludgeoned to death by a monster, and they can't do anything to stop it.
Imagine watching your child get beaten to death and being able to do nothing but watch.
It is the Kents watching this miracle that fell into their lives get violently ripped away from them.
It is the agony of watching their child grow steadily weaker, of hearing him scream out in pain (they've never heard him scream due to physical agony like this before, they are frozen, the instinct that drives a parent to protect their child rendered useless by the situation), of seeing him covered in his own blood when they've never seen him bleed and knowing they can't do a thing.
It is seeing his body and knowing they have no real way of retrieving him, of giving him a proper burial, knowing people more powerful than them could steal his body and desecrate it, with them being able to do nothing about it.
This has been a point of contention for a lot of people, with some saying this Clark is incredibly weak, and while he is definitely not the strongest version of Clark out there. 2X8 proved Clark holds back more than he himself even realizes and that his grasp on his own powers is primitive at best.
Even when fighting for his life and giving it “his all” he really wasn’t. He was still holding back.
Because seeing his fight with Kara and then comparing it to Brainiac’s fight with Kara, we can see it was Clark’s mind not his body which made him lose fights.
Brainiac rag dolled Kara during their fight, meanwhile Clark was getting tossed around by Kara and only landing a few hits.
It certainly wasn’t on my MAWS S2E8 Bingo card. (And Brainiac unfortunately served in that outfit)
Also why is his waist out like that? (I like it)
I need more Ghostmaker in Superbat fics. More of him coming in and being an annoying ex.
The tension between Bruce and him is so real, add Clark into the mix and there´s a lot of potential there.
Where´s my angsty 100k fic about them???
Just think of the possibilites!! I need this as a fic.
I am sick and tired of people blaming everything that happened on Clark. Blatantly ignoring the fact he never stood a chance at all and it all was going to happen regardless of the decisions he took.
Nobody, absolutely nobody, not even Batman knew Cyborg was spying on them but somehow the only one that gets blamed for it is Clark.
It wouldn't have mattered if Clark made the best, most perfect plan ever, if Darkside knew their every move.
Even if they had stayed on earth they still would have gotten attacked and killed because the invasion was inevitable, Darkside had his sights on earth since the first movie.
And as Constantine explains, Barry unleashed Darkside into the new timeline, so if you want to point fingers, blame him and his messing of the timeline.
Clark was basically stuck on a car with no brakes on a single road surrounded by walls with a giant truck aiming towards him at full speed.
He never stood a chance at all, he was as much a victim as everyone else.
If God and Lucifer don't have a White Diamond/ Pink Diamond style relationship in Hazbin Hotel I don't want it.
I want God to be this ancient and primordial being who genuinely sees Lucifer's punishment as the equivalent of sending a child to their room, like the last 10,000 years have just been a minute to him.
I want Lucifer to still be his favorite, for him to be extremely loving yet condescending at the same time.
To him all of Lucifer's pain and suffering is equivalent to a scratched knee.
He would see Lucifer's refusal to come back to Heaven after their reunion as a child throwing a tantrum after being scolded.
Meanwhile Lucifer has to deal with a parent that doesn't listen to him and treats him like a doll. (Having an omniscent and omnipresent parent must be hell)
All while the rest of the cast can only watch this family feud.
