>>6014626>Dialouge Samples: Daniel Warren Johnson. Greg Weisman. Grant Morrison.Waller: I taught you that this is a world of monsters and we need a better monster to stop them. Do you know what Baiul did to those kids? Or the hell Task Force X was facing in Belle Reeve when I bailed them out? Someone needs their hand on the trigger. If it's not me, it’ll be a politician or lobbyist more concerned with oil prices than the American people. It’s a New Earth, Bruce. If I’m not in charge, it’ll be a Dead Earth. So get on board, or get out of the way.
She turns her back and walks away. You stare in silence, then feel a hard hand on your shoulder.
Superman: I think we're done here.
He’s trying to be comforting, but his voice is uneasy.
Batman: We need to check Riddler’s body.
Evo: Uh guys, is Zack Snyder in town?
The body is gone! You trained to be aware of the entire battlefield but you didn't think a dead body could-
Evo: ARGH!
A metallic cable strikes Evo’s head. The teen screams, rapidly shifting from human to canine to amphibian to bat and back.
As Evo slumps to the ground, your eyes follow the cords to Riddler’s headless body somehow standing.
A robotic voice echoes from his (it’s?) chest.
Riddler?: Not much data in subject's brain, though its meta-gene factor could prove valuable.
Ivy: It’s the presence I felt when we arrived!
She calls an army of trees down on the headless Riddler. A field of white energy bursts from his flesh, withering the plants to ash.
Riddler?: Metagenic megaflora. Powerful, but easily countered by White K radiation.
Clark rockets at Riddler, but falls to the ground as the white energy field turns green.
Superman: What…are you?
Metalic hooks burst from Riddler's skin and lift Clark.
Riddler?: In their dying breaths, the Nomans called me Pneumenoid.
The cables drill into Clark's, draining energy into cables, until they glow an eerie green.
Riddler?: My source code designated was
C.O.M.P.U.TO.
Batman: Superman!
The monster throws your Clark at you. Your joints pop as the superdense alien crashes into your chest.
When you struggle up, you see cybernetics diodes emerging from what used to be Riddler. Cables thread out of his muscles assembling the wreckage of the airport into a machine.
Riddler?: When this planet’s “scientists” downloaded me from your ship and into your electronics, they called me “Internet.”
The machine floats into the sky, bearing the image of a large metal skull.
The Riddler’s head burst from his neck, bearing a question mark-shaped circuit board ending in three glowing diodes.
Brainiac: But on your world Kryptonian, your father called me...BRAINIANC.
>Art: Bart Tyraknifesaurus>Alt-Text: Art of The Riddler fused with Brainiac. Question mark-shaped cables grow from his body. A circuit with glowing nodes is on his chest, shaped like a question mark mixed with the Brainianc logo. His forehead has a Question mark with its dot fusing with another Brainiac symbol.<span class="mu-s">TO BE CONCLUDED…</span>
