I still feel like it's Mind. The appearances thing doesn't work, but he said the thing about that question being difficult.
At this point, does it hurt to guess?
I dont think so?
Should I just go for it?
I’m thinking a character that existed in another universe before COIE and wasn’t merged into NE until later. Maybe even after Infinite Crisis. So their NE entry would be under their old universe. For example, check out the Mime from Doomsday. His universe is (Watchmen) although his is in PE continuity right now.
But yes, make your guess and we’ll keep looking.
And scav was offered a question as well last night
Guess: is it mister Mind?
Is Jonny not Coming back?
Dun dun DUN! 1st to win, 1st 6 wins, and 1st to give you guys an F! Wow, I don't know what to think right now. You've actually been nocked asunder when empty is the quiver!
The answer was Mano.
We fail.
40's significance? Of the 2 canonic versions of him, the most common one has exactly 40 appearances.
His given name is unknown.
New Earth? That's where things get tricky. I've seen Pre and Post Crisis in Time legion members, villains, etc. go back into the present New Earth and Earth One. Because they don't need a multiverse jump, only the means to time travel, it pretty much says they're still in New Earth. I believe I've even seen the words New Earth used in an LOS issue.
And finally the clue? I thought some of you may focus on the artist and not the song, think the answer was associated with hammers in some way which is why I didn't want you to take it the wrong way. But the title was meant to be taken very literally. You can't touch Mano, nor can he you, without you ending up in the morgue.
I'm still kinda shocked. He was technically easier than some of my other answers. Yep, you fail. I guess this means I host again?
