    How is it that Constantine is always able to outsmart his way with demonic entities? Can he do the same with any higher level beings?

    Like, they're supposed to be beings that have a higher level of understanding than us yet every time Constantine shows up, he somehow can get away by talking his way out as if he have some sort of anomalous amounts of either wisdom or charisma. Not to mention he does the same with Lucifer. Why does this happen, does he actually have a some sort of blessing, talent, mad IQ, or is he just written like that and the writers just nerfs the intelligence of these beings? If it's a written thing, for what purpose is he written like that? Like how superman is written to show hope, justice, the American way, what is Constantine supposed to represent, the wits and resilience of a human being? Can he do the same with all deities or just demons in particular? Because it would be madly insane yet impressive if he can somehow outsmart the big G aka God Himself.

    What to read after CoIE

    Hi. What Batman comics should I read after CoIE? I want to have some background before getting into Morrisons JLA.

    Year one Dark knight returns Death in the family Long Halloween Killing joke

    I will also read WW by Perez and Man of Steel, but don’t know what to read for flash and Green Lantern.

    THANKS.

    Tip Of My Tongue: A comic where a character is being shown the most evil characters in the DC universe and one of the panels is of the Joker

    Does anyone know what comic I'm referencing? As I recall, a character is being shown the most evil characters that exist in the DC universe and one of the panels is a "failed comedian" sitting in a dimly lit room.

    Batman's weakness is his lower jaw.

    Like just hear me out. Most batman comics/movies show that batman's lower jaw is exposed.

    Why don't villains just aim for it ? I know it will be difficult but keep your aim on the lower jaw. I mean dont shoot/punch his face, keep your aim on the lower jaw.

    What redesigns have stuck around for a weirdly long amount of time?

    Seeing the Trinity in Absolute Power, where, correct me if I'm wrong, Diana is the only one who's still rocking her Rebirth outfit, while Bruce and Clark have had more classic redesigns since, makes her stand out just based on the different approaches to design at those different times.

    Another is Martian Manhunter, who's in his New 52 duds. I think Barry may be too, while GL and others have had redesigns.

    Any others that stand out?

    Real Lazarus Tournament?

    Who would win if all the best martial artists were brought together? Who would all be there?

    Here's my scenario( no killing goes to knock out. No powers) My 8 (cause it makes even brackets) in no particular order are:

    1. Nightwing; I'm a fan boy so I put him first but he deserves to be on this list.
    2. Batman; if the guy above is on this list then yah
    3. Orphan; duh
    4. Lady Shiva; at this point it is a mommy daughter father son play date
    5. Deathstroke
    6. Richard dragon
    7. Connor hawke
    8. Black canary

    Honorable mentions: bronze tiger, wildcat, karate kid

    First round: 1vs8. Dick wins. Black canary is actually pretty easily beaten here. She is keeping up with the fight until dick gets her in a scenario where she would typically use her canary cry. She doesn't but it causes her to hesitate and dick wins

    2v7. This one appears to everyone to be a fair fight until batman doesn't take a winning a blow and it becomes clear that he's seeing what Connor can do. After Bruce bears Connor he offers him some advice and training if Connor ever wants it. Connor accepts on the condition he does not have to wear scaly green short shorts

    3v6. Idk much about Richard dragon tbh but orphan is goated so she wins.

    4v5. Shiva beats deathstroke but deathstroke eggs her on into killing him. Slade is resurrected by the Lazarus pit and sent to the next round as Shiva broke a rule

    1v5. Common I'm a nightwing fan boy you know this fight was going to happen. Legitamently the most bloody fight of the tournament. Dick changes his first name to Mark because of how beat up he is after the fight (not actually its an invincible joke). Dick falls many times but always gets back up. At the end Slade asks why and dick Says "its the reason I fall" and batman smirks. Slade then forfeits.

    2v3. At the start the fight is clearly being won by batman who seems to be getting very angry despite winning. Half way through he stops and calls orphan out for not giving all she has. Batman says she doesn't have to hold back out of fear of hurting him. Orphan lowers her head and then becomes a different animal. This fight is really good with batman relying as much as possible on his strength and constitution, his inner monolgue stating that this strategy is a failing one as he taught her to fight opponents far stronger then him, but that he can't use gadgets or stealth or anything to win this fight. Orphan beats him and afterward walks up to him and let's out a sigh and simply states "how" and batman tells her an elaborate way he could have won the fight. Probably using the sand to blind her or something. Orphan then states "why" and he says he wanted to fight her as a martial artist. As an equal.

    3v1. I am conflicted on this one cause I know how I want to end it but I think it's my fan boy coming out again so I'll give two options.

    1. Orphan let's nightwing win because she understands his elevated role in the new dcu and what being the best martial artist in the world would do to help in that role.

    2. Nightwing tries to tire orphan out by acrobatically avoiding her, but even exhausted she still manages to win. He admits to being a little let down due to thinking it'd be a better fight. She puts a hand on his chest and says "good" and then puts it on her own and says "better" and smiles and they have a nice sibling moment to end the series.

    Debriefing with the batfamily later has Damian absolutely livid he wasn't invited. Babs and Tim are talking about how martial arts won't mean much with the rate technology is improving. Jason is absolutely roasting dick for losing to a girl after beating the worlds greatest assasin(or in scenario 1 hes roasting him because a girl had to let him win). Steph immediatley implodes at Jason for some unitended sexism. Duke asks Bruce for more martial arts training as he states he thinks out of everyone in the room he'd be the first to lose. He doesn't want to fall behind.
