Scathan the Approver vs. 5th Dimension Imps

Seriously, spinning the facts with this logic isn't gonna do it friend.

Fact is, LT made a gesture, and Protege copied his power.

Confirmed in LT's official Marvel Handbook bio. (2006)

Period.

Might I suggest, and I say this w/complete respect intended,
that U re-read those ishs of GotG involving him so that U can see where yur clearly in error?

Do what ya gotta do dogs,
I'll come back and post the LT making a single gesture,
and Protege copying his power just from that.

Then I'll post the LT's bio,
which cements Protege "[i]usurping[/i" his power as a fact,
then ... then WHAT?

Protege became MORE powerful than the LT,
cause he had the combined powers of Eternity/Hawkgod and the rest.
This is why the LT had to draw on outside source to finally overcome Protege,
and still with the help of Scathan.

He copied his appearance and appearance alone.

Why are yall thinking Scathan's power is the energy muzzle?

It's not.

Scathan simply approves or disapproves with a gesture, (thumb up/thumb down)
then, in an instant,
whatever it takes to defeat you, is so.

That's it.

I lol'ed.

He copied his power. You are correct it is ridiculous to think he copied his appearance,and his appearance alone.

.....except M.M. is not and the comics themselves tell us NUMEROUS TIMES that he can only copy a power that being displayed; the fact that the bio says he almost usurped all of it is ridiculous and hideously inaccurate, like it had been written by a person who hadnt actually read the stories, but instead had it summed up in short & from memory.

What if Protege comes back. Or is too dangerous to bring him back. Now he wouldn't make the mistake and would go to clear with LT first. Actually, if not for Scathan, he would clear with them already the first time.

Scathan wins.

Ok. To me its common sense,but wait till he shows up with proof. He always does. You have nothing but your interpretation supporting you.

its not "my interpretation", but simply comic fact based on wats had been stated numerous times in that title.

Protege DOES NOT gain the totality of a persons power, saying theyre powerful enuff to be VARIED in its usage, from watching it used in 1 fashion, but only learns how to use it IN THAT FASHION.

this is implicitly stated by Beyonder after he has that big fight w/the kid but then leaves when he cant put him down, but instead he spies on him from another dimension and says that the kid saw many of his abilities, but not all. and then later when in Scathans hand the kid had to wat for Bey to fire that blast @ Eternity (which did bupkus to it) so that he could see wat to do.

if he gained ALL of his power he wouldnt have needed to wait, would he??

and then theres him actually facing Scathan b4 he was placed in that bubble, so he HAD to have seen it coming, and then the simple fact that he was unable to free himself.

if the kid had usurped ALL of the LTs power, do U really think a mere Celestial could hold him??

I mean really guys, COME ON NOW......

Too Loops in this thread

Yo.

actually, his only job there was to observe & record LTs judgement on both the Beyonder and Protege, and thats it.

that he did wat he did was simply to bring order back to the proceedings more than likely.

Yo.

no idea, since he was only seen once IIRC, and even then he was called in rather than showed up on his own......

I think he could muzzle them, however I think theyd be able to break free since they dont need to use their hands to use their powers and blinding them is basically useless.....

Yes,really it is your interpretation. Dont treat it as factual,please. You acted as if he copied his appearance. He didnt. Tell me since you seem to be only enlightened one here. Which powers did he copy?

its on-panel fact that he copied the only thing he saw LT do: he gave himself a tri-face.

theres no evidence anywhere that he did anything else, altho I'll admit I wouldnt have figured that THAT would count as a "display of power".
