Oh, look at that, I totally forgot that I owned this thing.

Also, just because you can blast Mongul into the sun doesn't mean you can solve a small town corruption problem in the same way. You can't fix that sort of thing by punching it.

Only if you go by the very weird assumption that they would have UA'd everything that would have been in the book. Why would that be a thing?

One thing that is interesting about Gunn's DC Universe here is that supers have been around for a while. Some of them are going to be getting ready to retire. The idea of building in the Passing of the Torch to the universe from the get go is kind of bold, if they can pull it off. Will we see...
