Ch. 1521Defective products and perfect products
After Darkseid and Thanos defeated Orsaga, they prepared to fight over the Reality Controller and Soul Fire, unaware that Orsaga had only played dead. Orsaga watched with OAA, who treated the conflict as an experiment while seeking a truly perfect deputy.
- Thanos dismissed his suspicion that something was wrong and looked toward Darkseid as they prepared to battle over the Reality Controller and Soul Fire.
- Orsaga watched from another layer of space, lamented the loss of his fish, and explained that he had played dead because OAA's offer made it worthwhile.
- Orsaga said the ultimate artifacts were useful against beings bound by local rules but ineffective against outsiders like him.
- OAA observed the conflict as an experiment and considered the fallen Lucifer, Beyonder, Sleeping Celestial, and OBA flawed, replaceable products.
- OAA hoped a naturally grown Abyss Lord would become a perfect deputy, while Gann had created dozens of Abyss Lord Level administrators and kept them within the plane.
