I have the entire first series and the fourth. I recently read all of the Orion series and mister Miracle. I have several from the 2nd/3rd series but I can't find them all. Funny how most comic shops sell the issues for like 1.50 and only have maybe three in stock.

The later New Gods run was much better than the original imo...

As for the Orion series... 😘

No, read what I wrote and don't misquote me. With a fishing pole, I cannot lift an 150 pound fish. It would next to impossible for me to fish it outta of the water. It would be much easier for me to dead lift it or drag it.
so if someone gave u a magical fishing pole that never bent and u were able to get leverage u couldnt lift 150 lbs out of the water, why are u comparing this to deadlifts squats and benchpresses i mean i can maybe see deadlifts but even then fishing and deadlifting have nuthin to do with each other/other than pushing through the ground with ur legs
bench press is an entirely different set of muscles/movement
and squat is an entirely different movement

Was the Orion series canon? They almost don't even mention that Orion once had it or that Mister Miracle still has it.

I mean the fact that they both have/had the ALE.

How the hell am I supposed to know what I could do with a magical fishing pole?

Every fisherman has leverage when fishing. Doesn't keep them from completely exhausting themselves from trying to catch 50+ pound fish.

I stated benching or dead lifting 150 pounds would be much easier than fishing 150 pounds.

I never said anything about squats. It has nothing to do with pecs, biceps, or triceps so it's irrelevant to the discussion. It's also much easier than any of the other lifts mentioned. 150 pound squat is close to nothing.

Mr. Miracle is regarded as the only person who knows the Equation, but has the "will" to not use it.

But you never hear of Orion /w/ ALE. 😕

so ur saying deadlifts are pecs. biceps and triceps 🤨 i coulve sworn it was lower back, hamstrings and a few stabilizer muscles any way lifting deadweight has no barring on many everyday exercises other than increased stamina and muscular/neurological control

Well maybe we shall see but what I mean is we know that Darkseid is still searching for it. I'm surprised Darkseid hasn't searched the black racer since Scott tricked Orion, Metron and Darkseid in his guise.

Nevermind. I'll leave it at this. Bench 150 pounds. Then throw that same 150 weight in the water tied to a string and try to fish it. When you get done, tell me which was more difficult.

IMO Darkseid is about to unlock the "true" ALE, [that's why he kidnapped the professor in Firestorm #35]
