The Beyonder grants you the ability to jump back in time at any point in history and anywhere on Earth, but this power will only work once. The Beyonder will grant you the knowledge to speak the local language to make things more comfortable for you. Also, he will allow you to bring one other person with you. This person will also be granted the ability speak the language.

The Catch:
1. It has to be more than ten years in the past.
2. You can never go back to the future, but your partner has the option to.

Would you go back in time?

Dang, if you added not aging, it would be awesome.

Baring that, probably not.

Nope

Ain't leaving my wife and kids for nothing.

No, I wouldn't accept the offer.

A good rule of thumb to remember is that going backwards in history, everything will generally get worse and worse the further back you go.

I do to Beyonder, what I did to the Spectre.

Only this time I use both thumbs and no boiling tar.

Somehow, that makes it worse. :evilsmile

Pre or Post it makes no difference to me.

Remember that you only won because the LT jobbed to you.

On the other hand, Pre is so dumb, you could probably convince him to lose.

That's easy.

I go back to 1985 with a list of winning lottery numbers and sports outcomes. I win a ridiculous amount of money and invest it in this new up-and-coming software company...what was the name? Micro-something...Microsoft, yeah, that was it.
Later I invest in a few other startups...Yahoo, maybe, and Google when it comes available.
By the time I get back to 2008, I'm filthy stinking rich. Then I buy Marvel and DC and fire everyone responsible for Civil War, One More Day, and any story arc with the word "Crisis" in it.

Or is that just what I want you to think?

Then you realize, that you are now obscenely rich, and old.

He admitted it, I was there.

The hell you were.

I fought the Living Tribunal before you were on the board matey.

In my forties. Okay, late forties.

And rich.

Filthy, stinking, obscenely rich. With a gold-digging twenty-year-old supermodel trophy wife. And an iron-clad prenup. And lots of mistresses on the side.

Yeah, I could put up with that.

Ah, but I was there as a spectator.

And no, you beat the LT in the thread with that Hulk-fan insane ABC logic didn't you?

If so, then I was already a member, albeit with very little posts.

Really?

Could've sworn that happened before you appeared.

Oh well.

But you can fool the Beyonder.:D

Let's face it who couldn't outwit the Beyonder?

Too easy, the Beyonder.

That's how dumb he is.:D

I really ought to climb back down the power totem pole.

You could fight the Jugglenaught, that would make anyone lose power.

Hmm... I think I'll just end the god-moddery.

Damn I have become that which I loath most.
