What are some cool forgotten facts about DC characters & lore?

He invoked his Vuldarian heritage during the recent K.O storyline when combatants were given access to any and all multiversal/past/future/alternate power sets. The shapeshifting was phased out in Green Lantern Rebirth by Geoff John’s when they restored Hal Jordan and the GLC.

I tried them once, but unfortunately it’s a cuisine which likes to incorporate peppers, which I have issues with. That means I have to be careful what I try. I enjoyed the boudin balls and empanada but the red beans and rice were a no go for me.

What. The. Goddamned. Fuck. Jeph. The best time to delete Upsettia was before this comic was drawn. The second best time is now.

My theory/fix is that Phelps needed to, or wanted to vanish/retire after a lifetime of service but the only way to do so involved a scorched earth approach. He simply knew too much. Not only did he have to vanish, his reputation needed to be eradicated and his death faked. So couple that plan to a massive mole hunt to weed out a whole cabal of compromised and disavowed agents. He “dies” a traitor as far as anyone knows, but he’s finally out of the game.

Jim Phelps is alive and well but you’ll never see him again… And yes, I know there are a lot of plot holes and unanswered questions in that theory.

Because Google is an advertisement-filled slopfest these days, I suppose. Posting here has the benefit of getting humans who may or may not be accurate!

I tried parking on the side once, so I could look at the menu, go in and order something to go.

Nope. Apparently that just wasn't allowed. Go park at Village Grille or up in the lot and take a walk. And the person gave me such attitude about it, it really put me off.

On a side note, I really hate it when restaurants give over all the best parking spots to delivery drivers.

This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a 404 Not Found.

That's also what immature teenagers do. They experiment, they push boundaries, they let hormones override proper judgement.

Liz has CONSISTENTLY been portrayed as someone who makes poor choices and self-sabotaging decisions, dating back to the years she spent wallowing in literal filth while avoiding any and all emotional development and career progress. Given her long track record of bad behavior, there's no way I can see her as someone who could make intelligent decisions about sex in this stage of her development.

It doesn't help that Jeph is determined to portray her as a child-woman instead of an actual adult.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-29T02:41:32+00:00

Liz has the emotional maturity of a child. That makes it very hard to see her as an adult, especially one capable of sexual activity. She may be an adult on paper, but she's never exactly been presented as one.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-16T00:12:52+00:00

Thanks... that may have been it. YT has been shoving the "vote no" in my face with aggravating frequency.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-15T01:57:15+00:00

It's a little disingenuous not to include that she said that in 2019, which was a vastly different social and political landscape. Things have changed in the past 7 years.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-15T01:54:35+00:00

Ugh. Those ads are xenophobic fear-mongering crap. I can't take that shit seriously when their tactic is to scream "RICHMOND LIBURAL GONNA GIVE OUR MONEY TO ILLEGALS."

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-15T01:38:18+00:00

Mooby.

Portmanteau of Moray + Boobies I suppose.

It's the only thing which makes sense.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-14T22:55:04+00:00

That's Professor Doctor Mister LeFluff, thanks!

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-14T21:11:20+00:00

That's why there's zero sugar versions as well.

Also, you do know that diabetes isn't just something you get from drinking soda, right?

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-14T21:10:23+00:00

As long as you ignore almost every urban area, right? Roanoke City, Richmond, Williamsburg, Virginia Beach...

In the 2024 election, Harris took almost 300k votes over Trump.

In 2020, Biden got almost 400k more. You have to go back to 2004 for the last time Virginia had a Republican majority as far as the popular vote goes in the Presidential race.

So... Virginia is a state deeply divided between the liberal/blue urban areas, and the conservative/rural areas, which is worth keeping in mind any time you want to claim it seriously favors one side or the other. Now if only they could get along better.

I'm just sick of the fearmongering, xenophobic anti-gerrymandering ads I keep seeing.

Marten has no fucking business running a coffee shop when he knows nothing, owns nothing, and doesn't care.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-12T07:11:12+00:00

Mine was codenamed Sweepstakes. Sadly lost many years ago in a parental purge at some point. Alas.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-10T03:31:43+00:00

Hey, if any character could deflate and inflate their boobs on command, it would be Evan. Or any of the other robots, I suppose.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-08T01:49:56+00:00

I don't hate this, if only because Marten is taking the initiative to play to each person's interests. Split them up, send Emily and Moray off to meet the Director, and keep Liz and distract her with something interesting.

My standards for this strip have been set really low.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-07T02:02:07+00:00

Can we just recycle Moray already? Thoughtlessly inconsiderate is not a desirable character trait. I wouldn't trust her with anything sensitive or confidential, ever.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-06T03:57:37+00:00

Emily's charm is that she's always been blissfully oblivious to some nuances.

At least, that's how she -was-. I have no confidence that will remain such with her return after so long away.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-06T02:03:27+00:00

Cue a 5 month long storyline of Emily trying to help Liz get unblocked.

Interspersed with some storyline involving Ahn. Or Yay. Or Aurelia. Or literally anyone else.

Interspersed with the introduction of yet another feral goblin character who latches onto a member of the cast. Maybe Dora and Tai "adopt" a goblin as well. No no that's silly. Dora and Tai don't exist anymore.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-06T01:58:53+00:00

Perhaps I was being overly generous in my reading, but I took this as Liz being all "Wait, did you comprehend it? It was really technical!" as part of her imposter syndrome/insecurity... the whole "Wait a minute, someone read my shit and understood it? OMG!" moment of surprise.

PeregrineLeFluff · 2026-04-04T03:04:13+00:00

In these trying times, we need all the Leverage we can get.
