The opening page of Flashpoint Beyond #0 depicts a blackboard at the Vanishing Point, headquarters of Rip Hunter and the Time Masters, plainly stating that 5G has been averted alluding to Dan DiDio’s despised flop of a relaunch was once the future of the DC Universe.
By the end of the miniseries after confirmation that Dark Crisis is behind the characters currently holding a conference, Time Master Bonnie Baxter explains how the fabric of reality has been written and rewritten so many times that each pass creates another Mandela Effect in the surviving people.
It seems the events of Doomsday Clock and Dark Nights: Death Metal goofed with the timeline so badly that Clark, Wally, and Damian would turn evil, crazy, or some combination of the two, but it seems that’s not all that it did.
Dr. Manhattan and the Batman Who Shops Exclusively at Hot Topic somehow spliced together the dystopian future seen after the event Forever Evil in Teen Titans and Superboy with the current continuity, causing the current future history in the DCU to shift from the New 52 Superboy being pivotal in the creation of the Legion of Super-Heroes to Jonathan Samuel Kent taking on that role which is another step even further altered from the Pre-Flashpoint fact of Clark himself being the first Superboy from the Legion.
Or as I surmise in my essay, the New 52 Superboy who currently believes he IS Jonathan Samuel Kent did so, but may soon remember who he really is.
What’s hysterical to me is this makes the editorial commentary so that the Legion of Super-Heroes book that gave us an icky Saturn Girl who planted the mental suggestion in Jon to be her boyfriend and 5G itself was predicated by the dystopian future that produced Harvest and his psychotic champion, Jonathan Lane Kent. The bleak future that was revealed in Brian’s Legion to have had planet Earth broken and humanity living in multiple colonies among the stars, where Damian Wayne was an infamous historical figure analogous with Adolf Hitler and was the result of Dan DiDio’s beloved brain child, is in the same league as the plot of a Teen Titans/Superboy run that is universally despised. To have DC themselves makes this connection has me cackling.
P.S. I see that "Beware" line on the chalkboard, and I know what I think those pronouns are referring to.
here's the thing anon— i used to LMAO and i used to only for produce 101 season 2 aka the season where samuel got done so freaking dirty, but i got some old daniel, jihoon, baejin, kenta, and more p101 idol fics in my drafts just collecting dust
i've been thinking abt posting them but... i'd have to fix them for sure because i was a lot younger and less seasoned of a writer back then (also i was a minor so i only wrote fluff and angst)

Week 4 produced some pretty high scoring games. I’m a numbers guy and I sports bet, so I’m always paying attention to the numbers. I witnessed big plays made the wideouts this past weekend. Davonte Adams appears to have taking last week’s weak performance personal and had a productive outing that helped the Raiders to their first victory of the season. Adams was able to sneak by the century mark with 101 yards on a 9-catch afternoon. Throughout the first four games of the season Adams is below his normal production. Over the past 3 seasons Davonte has averaged 31 catches and 400 yards. He currently has 26 catches to go along with 290 yards on the season ranking him at #15. I expect an improvement over the next quarter of the season now that the Las Vegas Raiders won their first game on Sunday.
A name that will be called for decades to come Deebo Samuel was definitely bullying people all over the field Monday night against the Los Angeles Rams. On what I consider to be the highlight of the night was Deebo’s only touchdown where he ran an in-route that the Rams cornerback Derion Kendrick read perfectly. Only problem is Jimmy Garoppolo threw the ball high forcing Samuel to jump for the ball which caused the ball to sneak over the fingertips of the outstretched defender. Deebo showed great concentration and soon as he feet hit the turf he made four guys miss scampering his way to a 51-yard score. On the other side of the ball Cooper Kupp was phenomenal. Kupp set a new career high in catches with 14 that produced 122 yards. He was amazing against an extremely physical 49ers defense. Cooper continues to wow me because he’s the Rams only option right now. Their run game is non existent and the other wideouts are not getting the job done when their number has been called. Right now Kupp is doing what the best players do and that’s carry their team. Kupp does it all. He runs outs from outside and inside. He catches screen routes and runs angle routes from the backfield. There is nothing that he can’t do and I’m watching to see if he can repeat as the triple crown winner.
Tyreek Hill was up to his usual shenanigans catching 10 passes on 14 targets for 160 yards. I think my new nickname for Hill is Mr. Excitement because he surely is exciting to watch. Anytime he touches the ball I’m at the edge of my seat knowing there’s a possibility that Hill can take any play to the house. He caught a 61-yard pass from Teddy Bridgewater that was slightly under thrown. And watching him juggle the tipped pass was exciting to witness. I love the way Justin Jefferson bounced back. He played a physical game against Saints corner Marcus Lattimore who seemed like he was mad at the world during Sunday’s match in London. Jefferson caught 10 balls for 147 yards and made some note worthy plays. He had a sweet toe tap on a deep out route from the slot. Then he ran a great over route including a stair case step that caused two defenders to collide leaving the young wideout wide ass open. And he finished Lattimore off with a speed release and blow by for a 41-yard go route reception. These young wideouts are a pleasure to watch.
A.J. Brown had a decent day at the office. Brown caught 5 balls for 95 yards in a game hampered by a ridiculous amount of rain. Luckily his fourth down drop late in the game didn’t cost his team a victory and I’m certain the sure handed Brown will make that play next time he’s giving an opportunity to seal the game for his team. Stefon Diggs performance was nothing spectacular. Diggs had 6 targets catching 4 of them for 62 yards. He did have an eye popping catch on a well thrown Josh Allen ball toward the sideline that caused him to stretch out for the reception. I’m waiting for Ja’Marr Chase to chase his greatness. He only got six targets against the Dolphins catching 4 passes for 81 yards. Yes, his counter part Tee Higgins is making plays but its not like Chase is being double-teamed. Maybe the pressures and sacks on Quarterback Joe Burrow is causing less balls toward Chase. And I don’t really care about the reason, I just wanna see the kid make plays.
I’m glad Mike Evans was back on the field to help Tom Brady. He took a few big hits on his first few catches. He scored twice having 8 catches for 103 yards. His second touchdown was a one-hand catch in the corner of the end zone. As Brady finds his groove now that his weapons are healthy (Chris Godwin, Julio Jones) I expect this offense to get back to their high scoring ways. I haven’t decided on a wideout of the week this week but Ill be sure to mention it in my next post. Also I need a little more time to make my top-10 list. I’m thinking about making it a top-3 list. Until next week, Wideouts Let’s Go.
