It can still be a takeout since Ollie was SUPPOSED to be compatible with the operation but wasn't, so this might be a body double that everyone thought was the real thing.

Don't know if Abra Kadabra typically works like this, but Grodd saying "Liar" does indicate this isn't "actually" happening. Or at least not in a way that can't be undone or "revealed."
>>
>>155095580
I thought he was supposed to be a skeleton anyway
>>
>>155096597
He's supposed to have like, invisible flesh or something? That's what I gathered. So in Absolute he's got the... vitiligo? Whatever the splotching skin coloring is called, but shaped like a skull. Which is cute, but unfortunately it's a bit over played in the tumblr OC world nowadays.

Pretty good issues this week. I'm guessing the Flash stuff is all illusions and I bet the cliffhanger for the next GA will be the identity reveal.

Abra Kadabra. If I remember right he is a guy from the distant future who uses tech to simulate magic or something like that

>King of Vlatava
Count Vertigo?

>>155095351
Is this Edvin character someone existing or a new creation for this story?

I know the book is associated with muh rich people bad and it is mostly that but between this and last month's issue about what Roy's been going through, there is a little bit of nuance here.
>>
>>155101917
The point is to show that it's not just that evil people become rich or rich people become evil, but how hard it is to cross the divide of that much wealth. Ollie talks about hanging out with Hammond who hates him in a "normal' way because they're equals, whereas all his other relationships are tainted by them also hating his wealth. He wants to do good, but somehow things just never seem to work out.

The bit about "shouldn't we use our privilege to help the world" is pretty on the nose too. Noblesse oblige. The ultimate point is not that the rich are evil, selfish, and stupid, though they mostly are, it's that there's something more rotten at the core than the mere accumulation of power. People have been railing against class for as long as people have been people. It's only the extreme concentration of it, and the sheer barrier against reality and consequence this provides, that has allowed us to see how fucking retarded people can get when they think they don't need anyone else. That money can replace actual relationships. The problem has always been deeper: too much distance between peoples creates discord. Previous societies tried to create various kinds of social contracts to tie everyone together (and the smarter ones with power realized the purpose of it), with the answer being inequality is inescapable, but stability requires buy in from everyone, and the powerful need to pay a price for it (one they can easily stomach if they don't get too stupid).

The simple truth is the rich and powerful can't really do anything either, because the way things are is why they're rich and powerful. You can do everything with that position in society except get rid of it. How do you reorder a society that only hates you and wants to by in your position? How long does it take any revolutionary before their answer is just some form of "I need a monopoly on power to force people to act good?"

>EXTENDED FOR SIX MORE ISSUES!
Nice

>>155095351
>Friend of Absolute Epstein was almost Absolute President
It's very subtle commentary
>>
Does anyone else think Oliver might be dead?
>>
>>155103226
I think he is definitly dead.
>>
>>155103226
Nah
The new mystery from #7 onwards will be Ollie popping up on the news somewhere somehow and Dinah chasing him down Carmen Sandiego style I bet
>>
>>155102197
>"I need a monopoly on power to force people to act good?"
>what is state monopoly on violence
This isn't just a matter of the revolutionaries you want to tut-tut for being too harsh on people who'd kill them all without a second's hesitation if the shoe was on the other foot. EVERY government needs a monopoly on power in order to stay the government.
>>
>>155097720
The Joker has Arks full of Moreaus all over the world, Hammond has delusions of glory.
>>
>>155104699
Joker had several centuries headstart in fairness
>>
I think Oliver is dead and GA will end up being a girl.
I don't know enough about GA's supporting characters to say who that girl will be though. Does he have a little sister like in the show?
>>
>>155104908
He has Emiko here, just like he did in the comics. We haven't formally met her yet, though.

I still think GA is Merlyn.
>>
>>155096125
I thought the same thing but maybe this is far enough in the future that he's had enough time to at least grow into his new situation.
>>
>>155104030
People who form a government can freely give up that power if they're in agreement about things. It's like that anon was saying, stable places of power (even in the helpful case such as governments etc) need some form of agreement or understanding or else there's nothing anybody can do. Oliver would have to change the system in the same way governments do reforms or anything like that, but he's in over his head (or was) and forgot that there'd be others a lot more wary for that balance who don't want him ruining things.
Absolute Hawkman has that turmoil going on still, but he acquiesced and settled for smaller victories. Absolute has been fun to read
>>
>>155104030
That's kind of my point, anon. There's a double pronged problem that the monopoly on violence is necessary for a stable state but also concentrates power and authority in a way that has to be carefully managed, something that no ideology or political philosophy is capable of truly dealing with.
>>
>>155104792
>several centuries
Less than one. He was a kid in the mid-1880s.
>>
>>155107364
that's about one and a half centuries
>>
>>155103226
I thought Ollie was dead when A. Hawkman plunked his head on the top bad guy's meeting table.
>>
>>155107829
he got better

>>155105608
but merlyn was in a room pointing a gun at ga

okay so Green Arrow is totally gonna grow back his hand right? I'm expecting tentacles to sprout from his stump and reattach that hand mid air
>>

His severed hand is gonna grow a new dark and twisted version of Green Arrow like in Ash vs Evil Dead

I'm just gonna ask this here.
My friend says Vic Sage is a girl in the absolute universe. This true?
>>
>>155117330
Yes and victoria is a bombshell redhead.
And catwoman's team is literally a huge Cat's Eye, Gunsmith Cats, Totally Spies and Dirty Pair expy.
>>
>>155095285
Reading this made me realize I don't remember anything from the previous issue.
>>
>>155117330
Writer admitted she wanted to use Renee Montoya but Ewing already used her in Absolute Green Lantern so she just genderbent Vic instead. Feels like a bit of a waste, Vic Sage fits into the whole concept of this Absolute line very well and he's instead just been turned into a Totally Spies girl lol
>>
>>155095559
Nice bait
>>
>>155117473
>>155117601
Sounds absolutely dumb. I agree, I can't think of a character more built for a universe that's basically defined by rampant corruption, exploitation, and greed among the elite.
>>
>>155098135
>absolute Grundy is just regular Grundy with extra eyeballs
Lame.
>>
>>155117601
>the whole concept of this Absolute line
>Ra's al Ghul is dead, Talia is in prison, the megacorporation they built is reduced to a series of tombs Brainiac can ransack for resources, Hawkman is a demoralized wreck, Smallville is a town of middle American wholesome chunguses and not a desolate shithole full of amoeba water people who'd slit their mom's throat for a single hit of fentanyl
>everything about Absolute Wonder Woman
Totally Spies Vic feels fairly in step with what Absolute has turned into.
>>
>>155117601
Unless Ewing actually blocked her from using the character and intends on doing more with her, Renee still could've been used I feel, she showed up once in Jo's backstory and that's it. Weird.

>>155117552
Roy's helping Dinah sneak into Absolute Epstein Island (which was actually a front for Absolute Unit 731) so that she can find out what the hell Hector Hammond is doing and kill her. Also Hammond created Absolute Solomon Grundy who is basically just Resident Evil's Nemesis here.
>>
>>155117845
*kill him, Hammond hasn't been genderbent yet
>>
>>155117845
>(which was actually a front for Absolute Unit 731)
It's actually a front for a SECOND Absolute Umbrella Corporation. Absolute doesn't just have the Absolute Umbrella Corporation being run by the 150 year old Nephilim hybrid Joker, it has this one too. The Absolute universe is so fucked and ontologically poisoned by evil it has two Umbrella Corporations that formed independently of each other.
THANK YOU BASED DARKSEID
