Randy, at risk of sounding patronising, I am amazed you didn't pick up on the whole 1000,000 years under the sand thing.
Yeah, no, thing. I had all the "under the sand for the past blahblah years", I just figured that Geoffrey's plot was that J'onn had acted on Huntress' suggestion immediately. Whereas what we're saying here is that he's actually stored the idea away until finally acting it out at some unspecified off-panel point in the relatively nearish future.
Perfect example of Gregory messing up his "let the reader fill in the blanks" method, in my opinion. I mean, Huntress explains it to Bats at one point as "I told them they had eighty-three thousand years to lay their traps and hide their weapons," when earlier on in the same issue, J'onn says to the Michelin Man that the ring's been "disguised as kryptonite for 83 thousand years."
So, you know, it does kind of sound like he's buried the ring a couple of days after she's put the idea into his head (which he couldn't have done, what with Kyle being blasted into the future and still in possession of it, and all). |
