That would explain why when the Joker does appear he's scowling, brooding and saying he's not funny. They switched bodies!

Spider-Verse #3: Due to weird bullshit involving them all being Spider-people, a bunch of spider-folk with false memories are starting to remember their old lives before Secret Wars. After crime-fighting goes poorly, the Sinister Six show up, knock them all out, and bring them to Norman Osborn.  Later on after some exposition...  I love "doesn't give a poo poo" Spider-Ham.

Rhyno posted:Hey, why don't we eat monkey? It's really hard to cook parasites and diseases out of it. Eating monkey meat is how humans get SIV, a virus theorized to be the progenitor of HIV. Also, y'know, a lot of them are endangered and in places that are hard to get to. And they taste bad. I hear.

Also it would no doubt be way more of a pain to domesticate monkeys for lesser return in meat compared to the actual food animals we rely on, to take a long term view on the subject.

His ring can't affect yellow things, but as far as I know being around yellow has never drained its power. I linked the entire sequence up above, thanks for ignoring it? And realizing the sheer effort that Batman and Robin put into painting the room would have flustered Hal more anyway, which was the point. Does casting a yellow light on an object actually then render it as ineffective against a ring? redbackground fucked around with this message at 13:11 on Jul 29, 2015 |

I mean, I think Hal could just use his GL ring to make green fire or something to heat the colourless air until batman can't stand the heat and then just punch him but Hal's never been the most creative GL so aside from the cool psychological effect Bats could've just put on a yellow hat or something.

Hal could have solved that the same way Magneto beats non-magnetic people: by grabbing a nearby rock/building and using that to smash everything.

theflyingorc posted:Pretty sure that the rules are aggressively undefined. If it's dark wherever they are, the object isn't even reflecting yellow light. So what, the ring doesn't work on certain types of pigment? I remember an old issue of the Super Friends comic where Aquaman destroyed one of GL's ring constructs by headbutting it with his blond hair.

"Why doesn't he just carry around a paintball gun loaded with green pellets?" Really, though, that scene had so many layers of Batman: 1: He's teaching his new ward discipline 2: He's testing to see how through and willing to take stupid orders his ward is 3: he's seriously mind-loving Green Lantern 4: He's showing his ward exactly how crazy you have to be to be 'crazy-prepared.' 5: he's just being a smug douche with the lemonade.

I imagine that a fresh Green Lantern is encouraged to spend time with a set of yellow Pantone color swatches to find out what shades the ring can punch through and which ones are immune.
