If he's been undercover for over five years, he's almost certainly significantly older than he looks.

That was the British, if it happened. (It was considered, but we don't know if it was carried out.)

Just switch your audio to SAP, and all the episodes will be entirely in Spanish!

♫ He robbed from the rich and then set them aflame.♬
♫ He brawls with his foes. (Or his friends. It's the same.) ♬
♫ "Oh why do you love him?" you ask. Are you thick? ♬
♫ America's hero, the man they call Mick! ♬

Or will he be killed by Mick/as a result of Mick's actions, leading to angst?

British and French soldiers, probably. Russian soldiers faced less trench warfare in WWI and truly horrific conditions in WWII. Whether a German conscript would prefer the Great War Western Front or the WWII Eastern Front is basically a question of which circle of Hell you prefer. And almost any soldier in east

Among other things, Japan invaded China years before the European conflict started. (And critics of the US being "late" to the European war never seem to extend to everyone signally failing to come to China's aid.) Japan also engaged in atrocities (most famously but not by any means exclusively at Nanjing), and in

We don't really know what Amaya's seen. She's not in the US infantry, she's a member of a team that's presumably gone all over the place to do various secret missions. Whether any of those took her to the Eastern Front or China or one of the other places where the war was worst is, at this point, unknown.

The show is pretty much saying outright that Christianity is the right faith, so why not?

The line is good, Sean Bean's delivery is awesome. It's just not Tolkien's. (It would be as if they went back to work with L. Frank Baum and he took inspiration from Sara wearing red shoes or something.)

Or if they thought they needed Tolkien on site, they have a flying time machine that they had no hesitation about bringing him aboard.

I have no idea if any of this is historically accurate because I’m not especially well versed in Tolkien’s interpretation of Arthurian myth

Once they mind-controlled him into treating holy relics like game tokens, anyway.

I liked it a lot. But I sort of wish that the Legends' lines that were clearly to have inspired Tolkien had come from the books rather than the movies. (Obviously there's some overlap, but "one does not simply walk into Mordor" and Aragorn's St. Crispin's Day speech are clearly the latter.)

WWII killed something like three times as many people. It was objectively worse, different distribution of deaths notwithstanding.

I'm guessing the scene would have been different, even assuming the same resolution. Which would have depended on how the original outline responded to contact with reality. I doubt JMS would ever have gotten the back-to-back five year shows he planned, but the Shadow War would likely have been different if it had

That one I haven't seen. (Looks like it was in Action #222; I'll have to see if I can track it down.)

Very cool. I got to meet him once at a Chicago-area con, when I was on a panel and as a result was able to hang out in the green room.

In the case of Daxam, they seem to be indicated that a fair number of people did escape, since the royals are trying to gather the refugees back to rebuild Daxam.
