In 5 years, after all of his TV appearances have ended, Bentley will reveal that he, in fact, was cast as Kang.

In a way, since we're all together on this forum, we might even say that WE were Kangs.

😆

Some genuine question. I admit that I was skimming through Rebirth Justice League run.

But then I just re-read it's The Extinction Machines arc, found out Superman was tanking the blows that only need no more than several hits to break the world.

The initial shockwave already caused global disasters and it's powers were growing

Superman then entered the earth's core and moved it into earth's inner core in order to destroy it while it caused oterh worldwide quakes.......Superman even tanked the second to last blow that would have shattered the world if not for the Kindred

But I don't see anyone talk about this, so I wondering is later issues have some information that counters this? or is I missing something in this arc?

Which blows and honestly, this comic is by far one of Rebirth Superman lowest fts imo. It doesn't need to be discussed

Finally got around to reading Incarnate, and it sort of has me dreading how GEB will be depicted in his inevitable reveal.

Like, will Darkseid and TEH be depicted as literal arms that are snapped onto his body, with lesser characters like Extant, Prime, Gog, Doomsday, etc. acting as the fingers... And maybe Nekron and UpsideDown Man as as the legs?

I genuinely feel like they might go that route... GEB will be some stupid f*cking mecha, whose body is a composite version of every major villain, ever.

Ikr...and it had such promise. Something tells me Darkseid hasn't be turned yet

And lol, if this is Rebirth Superman lowest showings, then It would place Rebirth Superman at least planetary durability since the initial shockwave already caused global earthquakes and Superman was at the ground zero when it later went off

Carver only likes Superman's multiversal feats. Planetary level feats are low showings for him.

Oh hell nooo
I’m hoping that it’s more just metaphorical. More like what Mandrakk did
He talks through them

Galan is right, that sucks as an idea.

It would be better if TEH was thE ENTIRE right arm, with stump (a literal empty gap where the hand would be).

DS can then be the left arm, and he can fire Omega Beams from his left hand, and DS' mouth is the hand a la Voltron.

Eisner award, right there.

Oh I'm sure Darkseid will ultimately contribute to the GEB's defeat. Could be something as simple as him 'reasoning' with it(like ST did), or could be him gradually asserting his will over the GEB, until he literally becomes the darkness -- which could very well be his endgame. /shrug

Oh that is most definitely what I'm hoping for.

But with how the various villains have been depicted/described as the literal pieces of it's body(TEH=the right arm, Darkseid=the left arm, lesser villains=the fingers, Pariah=the voice, etc.), I just wouldn't be surprised if GEB appeared as some sort of abstract composite that incorporates all of them in its appearance -- like the Voltron Celestial on steroids.

Just makes things extra comical when you then think about something like that potentially setting the stage for the heroes of the multiverse to 'unite' in a similar way. Yuck.

So its basically Snyder all over again 😐

The Voltron thing sounds so terrible. I really hope they don't go that route

👆

I really don't *think* they'd go that route, but with how shitty DC has become, I'm still a bit concerned that they might. Hopefully not.

...Though now that I think about it more, it does seem likely that Darkseid will eventually usurp the GEB's power somehow. The implication is that Darkseid has always been aware of the GEB, and all of his machinations [from FC to now] have been slowly building up to him conquering GEB in some capacity... We'll see, I guess. /shrug

I am still waiting for [what seems like] an inevitable Mandrakk reveal, though. At this point, pretty much every other noteworthy villain has already been revealed as still existing as an aspect of GEB's totality, so why is Mandrakk(who was explicitly stated to be GEB revealing itself during FC) still absent..? Curious.

geb aside

do you think dc will finally officially introduce lucifer into the main continuity

or is the character only under carey right now?

I hope this ends up in Mandrak getting his own comicbook

Wasn't Mandrakk revealed already?

That's a terrible idea. Look what happened to Manhattan
