Q: Can two avatars of the same god exist at the same time?

user123441I saw in the Malleus Monstrotum some of Nyarlathotep's avatars have differing intelligence. This is what led to this question.

Q: Help remembering book title!

Tress HolmanI read two books (obviously read more, but this is about those two SPECIFICALLY) in junior high (I'm 26 now) that I can not for the life of me remember what they were called and I'd love to read them again! I think they were a little sci-fi-y. The first one was definitely! There was a teenager...

Q: Does Michael Burnham exist in the Kelvin timeline?

Out of universe, Star Trek: Discovery was 10 years away, so the idea of Spock having a sister was...

Q: Examples of joyful immortals in TV or Film

jmanI noticed the other day that I couldn't think of many examples of happy immortals in sci-fi or fantasy. Mostly the immortals on TV are like Angel and burdened by the weight of immortality. The only two examples I thought of were: Doctor Who (and only some Doctors) An immortal from Highlander ...

Q: Looking for SF book, a series of short stories each set X years ahead. In first one aliens placed domes over cities before wiping out everyone else

CorneliusDetroitI read this years ago, most likely this would be a young adult book, maybe from the 1970s or 1980s. I swear the title was "The Turning Point: Tales of a Future Past" but I've never been able to find it under that name so I may be remembering something wrong. In the first story aliens put domes ...

@AnkitSharma it’s weird, a health scam a little bit ago got autoflagged and deleted in 20 seconds of being reported but that lasted for a lot longer
@Elfvia probably

A: Who are the two smartest people in the world? (DC Comics)

user86137I say it's not Batman and Lex Luthor, but Braniac and The atom are the first and second smartest.

Seems deletion-worthy, eh? It’s all opinion to an apparently answered in-Universe thing
 
6:50 AM
@Stormblessed by now I can tell you're a human being :D
I hate the captchas, whenever I join Discord they always give me one and I hate 'em
Hey @Loong!
Fav DC superhero is Batgirl, but never saw Batman as 'smart'
But then again how would I know, I'm more into Marvel :D
My second fav DC girl is Katana

@Jenayah that seems more of his guess and also when Batman got that chair it was a different deal

Q: Short story about a bureaucracy going over efficient

Q: Why is the concept of Darth Sidious death so important?

sterosLife and death is a main topic in Star Wars and handled in a very mythological/religious way known from many real-life belief-systems. There is an afterlife. Jedi go to something that seems awfully close to heaven. They can come back as, force ghosts I believe it is called, which seems like spiri...

Q: Justice League comic where the Arkham Asylum gate is locked with a Kryptonite chain

NoosrepA while ago I read part of a comic storyline on Imgur and can't remember which issue this was. It seemed to me something out of a more recent Justice League comic but a) I'm not that familiar with DC and b) maybe I am wrong about the art style but it reminded me with late 90's X-Men art. What I ...

@SFFBlog @Jack that’s a fun article :)
I don’t have the service so I can’t watch it...is it worth it at all for just that?
 
I'm not sure yet, there are only 2 episodes out so far.
Between that, X-Men 1990s cartoon, and Disney films for my kid, we will probably get our moneys worth out of it. At least until the first Marvel series hit the service next spring.

Q: Are Ego and the Ego Stone related somehow?

user123462I know this is kind of a silly question, but "Ego" and "Ego Stone" are pretty similar.

 
@TheLethalCarrot I hedged the comment a bit because I wasn't sure about the comics. :)
 
AFAIA it's not even true in the comics but I don't know enough about them
 
But fair point that the question was MCU-specific.

Q: Short story from the 70s(?) about aliens/angels destroying humankind, from the POV of a priest/pastor

user151841In the 90s I read a collection of short sci-fi stories. One that made an impression on me had the premise of angels fighting humanity to destruction. God had gotten sick of human kind, and like a story out of the Bible or ancient myth, he was killing all humans (again). I believe it was first pub...
