The Shee-Yar aren't related to the LL so where's the fun in that?

Quote:

The Joker might like that one.

If it's any help the Carnifex expects Vizh's kids to be joining him for dinner.

My take is that the LL aren't fragile at all; they're very resiliant and deceptively hard to beat. They're to the PV what the Avengers and JLA are in their respective mythoi, the prime heroes in a team.

Quote:

Yes, they can *beat* any opponent. I'd expect, though, Lee, Chiaki, and Hallie to understand that, and also understand that they could theoretically disable or dismantle the LL by giving them no opponent to fight. For instance making them obsolete somehow, and forcing the individuals to move on to something else.

Wouldn't that require getting rid of every supervillain, terrorist organisation, alien and supernatural enemy in the Parodyverse then eradicating crime and natural disaster?

Quote:

I didn't get a chance to go into detail [about Shee-Yar] in this chapter since it's not that kind of narrative but the Shee-Yar sun is snuffed so there's massively sub-zero temperatures (I assume Liu Xi or Lara could mitigate that) and the planet is floating out of orbit with all the tectonic shifts that implies.

Quote:

There may be some structures left, at least natural ones.

I'm sure there's plenty of ruins and I'm sure that a running battle will enable the heroes to make creative use of them. Unfortunately they've been dropped into the last act of a planetary zombie movie. They'll be fine until they need to rest; or find a bathroom.
