Savage with prep has taken on teams stacked with Herald level characters
JSA (Alan Scot, Dr Fate, Starman, powergirl etc)
JLA (Superman, MMH, Firrstorm, John Stewart, Wonder Woman)
JLT ( The Ray, MMH, Truumph, L-Ron in body of Despero)
Remind ne of the last team Tim took on that had heralds like these and was a comletitive threat solely due to prep?
Batman and Superman. Not only that, but Tim is a scientific genius, who exceeds Batman himself (as stated by him). With prep, Tim was also able to outwit Mr. Oz and overcome his prisons (twice), and this is a guy who temporarily took away Mr. Mxy's powers.
Rebirth makes post COIE continuity canon again so how can that be?? Savage took on those teams post COIE.
Superman + Batman </= Superman + MMH +John Stewart+ Firestorm+ Wonder Woman. Still waiting on the feat where Tim uses prep to take on 4 or 5 herald level characters. Oh and scientific genius asside Savage is the better tactical genius AND more importantly the better psychological manipulator. He has after all manipulated the likes of Wally West, Raymond Tirrel, the JSA, JLTF to do what he wanted and put his plans in motion. When battling Savage you can never really be surr your not actually unwittingly working for him
Funny hiw every site onnthe internet and every interview with any DC creative team says otherwise
Which is meaningless because tech doesnt make a prep war success. Superior tacticians win with prep. Vril Dox II has defeated his father Brainiac and Starro who are both his tech superiors because hebis better at psychological manipulation and using hus adversaries motivations against them.
DD isnt above Despero who was on one of those teams. Savage maniulated those teams to beat themselves.
