That sick callout of all those ding-dongs, though. :O

It's not surprising Chris (Braithwhite) was good at the company outting with throwing weapons. If his Scouting experience was anything like mine, he had lots of practice when he was younger. ;-) 

I think they forgot one option for how OblivAeon effected Greatest Legacy- it lead to the history we know. Paul VIII did not raise Pauline (Felicia) the same way his father raised him. His Father (Grandpa Legacy) drilled into him the importanence of the family tradition and maintaining the Legacy line of heroics- "You must me ready to be Legacy when I am gone", "Your child must be ready to become Legacy when you are gone" - because Paul VII saw his son and granddaughter wearing Legacy costumes in the future fighting to save the world 

 

The editor’s note which corresponds to the number of hero decks in the original game! (The next EN gives us Alpha, and then there’s one or two for Darkstryfe and Painstake, and that’s it.)

I definitely don’t share Christopher’s opinion that creativity is draining. I find it basically effortless. Getting paid for it is another story of course.

I wonder if Gargoyle’s civilian alias is Gary G. Foyle or Garfield Boyle.

So this episode is the source for saying “there is only one ‘the Void’, but it has unique presentation to each timeline”, which is unlike either the Realm of Discord or Ur-Space. This is what I remembered being true while I Justified, and I was very surprised by an earlier episodes contradicting that, saying “every timeline has a separate Realm of Discord, every timeline has its own separate Void”. That didn’t make sense to me. Gloomweaver is infinite voodoo shamans who did infinite rituals to transcend infinite mortal bodies to become infinite alligator-tailed nightmare gods; I’m fine with all that. But there was probably only one original Akash’Bhuta, who stepped out infinite Nexi of the Void and became the slumbering malevolence of infinite planet Earths.

Advice to the Vertex people: “DON’T USE THE OBLIVION SHARDS! SERIOUSLY DON’T DO IT! NO, NOT EVEN YOU, WORST VILLAIN EVER MAN! IT’S NOT WORTH IT EVEN FOR YOU!!!”

Since they talked about the realm of the Fey, who are at this point explicitly established as being “little people” (I don’t know if that remains true for the RCR Fey Court deck), obligatory plug for the absolute best song ever sung about a tiny bit powerful being, “The Wee Wee Man” by Steeleye Span."

“Stopping Terrorism” - Adam says “you don’t like the acronym that comes up with.” I’m pretty sure Christopher does like that acronym, in exactly the way he likes to swear a lot, and has to stop…I mean, limit himself from doing it in the air, or else Trevor has to bleep him.

Technically naked Galactra confirmed. I am so happy.
