My immediate theory is that Paradigm's suit has a kind of survival mode it can activate - if you look at how Master Chief survived being adrift in space for so long at the start of HALO Infinite, it's probably like that

[@ksaalpine339]

The 3rd and 4th explain how shes still alive and how she escaped

[@Tcash.]

I have a feeling that the paradigms suit can supply nutrients long enough to keep her alive. I sound like a huge nerd right now but I think it’s possible

[@BurrnrMinus]

as a nerd i can confirm this is possible

[@yest1992]

Or it was probably because the average cyro temperature to keep her asleep for a long time

Foundation did say in Batman Fortnite foundation that his armor has kept him alive for a long time, and he did survive at the bottom of Gothams ocean for a few months.

[@EasternUmi]

the guys in zero reality are living in a time loop the concept of time doesnt matter in there. maybe it's just yesterday for paradigm or hours when she crash landed on the moon and escaped the time loop.

[@AdvSpringBonnie]

My question about Paradigm is how she's been described so far, since Scientist supposedly communicated with her in C3S1, which is definitely before this. The Imagined also was given transmissions from her in season 2. The voice over quests don't seem to match with the main story right now...

[@TheEpicGalaxy21]

Yeah, though I guess that can happen when different people work on different parts of the storyline. My only other guess is that she fainted a while before they got to the mech. Everyone who was Anti-Paradigm disliked her that they didn't even bother trying to find her/ talk to her, so only the Scientist/ Imagined did, but then when she stopped answering their messages they assumed the worst, only to find her in the mech as seen in the comics...

[@awesomenesslivestreams8472]

I think she tried to find the Mech on her own, AFTER talking to The Scientist and The Imagined, just like in BR, but passed out because of the Moon's Atmosphere or something. Maybe she tried toe fix the Mech herself.

[@TheEpicGalaxy21]

@@awesomenesslivestreams8472 That does make sense, since one of the scientist tapes DID mention that she was preparing to make a long journey.

[@jennifertrussell5711]

Yeah

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

Yes, a lot of people are salty about this. Issue 2 is a _huge_ plothole: If Paradigm was on the Moon unconscious since the end of Chapter 1 S9, why did the Scientist say "the Seven of us" in Season X when the Seven did their thing with the multiple rockets and slamming the Visitor's meteorite into the Zero Point? _Who exactly_ were Scientist and the Imagined sending messages to and being in radio contact with _and receiving replies from and even blueprints for the Anvil Rocket Launcher from_ in Chapter 3 Season 1 and Ch3S2?? And the in-game quests made it seem the idea of deploying a repaired Mecha against the I.O.'s Collider had been PAradigm's idea, but that is also contradicted by the comic. The Chapter 3 in-game quests and audio logs painted Paradigm as this super-competent engineer who the Scientist begged to return, along the lines of "we need your help, you're our last hope, Paradigm, only you can save us". And now all of sudden _she_ is the damsel who needs rescue and has done nothing for 3 years but play Sleeping Beauty in her Mecha?? Not to mention when we first saw the Lobby background for the Seven base on the Ice Moon, we all thought that base had been there for ages. That would have neatly explained why Paradigm even went there in her Mecha after defeating the Devourer. But if the Seven didn't even know about the Ice Moon beforehand or at least had never been there before and now need their hands held by the Avengers and X-Men to go there.... then why in the blazes did the Paradigm steer her Mecha into Space and to that moon in the first place??? It gets even worse: The comic is clearly set in late Ch3S2, after the Seven learn about the I.O. building the Collider but before the Collision event with the Mecha. So the Seven and Jones _all_ leave the Island to steal a spaceship from the I.O. and then go to the Ice Moon and hunt for the Zero Shard. But this happens during the _same time_ when according to the in-game/in-universe timeline, the Scientist and Origin, Foundation and the Imagined and Jones were _on the Island_ and giving us quests! WHAT? Donald Mustard and Christos Gage will have a lot of explaining to do... but I'm afraid they will just retcon the in-game events and ignore the in-game lore quests.

[@z4andcatb]

Maybe the Paradigm's suit has a survival mode similar to Master Chief in Halo Infinite.

[@nivramaz7998]

So during Season 2 of Ch 3 we're told that the Paradigm was in exile and had a long way to go before coming back to the Island Now it's shown that she's been on the Ice Moon since Chapter 1??? That ontop of Jones confusing Gunnar for Geno when he obviously knew who Gunnar was in Season 2 is confusing the hell out of me

[@dawidek8237]

i think the events in comic series happen before that quest

[@boobyegg2135]

The seven lost trust in paradigm after she destabilized the zero point in season 9 and she went to the ice moon with the mech

[@mylez7614]

27 days on the moon is equal to 1 year on earth

[@mylez7614]

I think I know how paradigm is still alive. First of all, 1 year on the moon is 27 days. The foundation was in the ocean for a few months in Gotham city so it makes sense paradigm would still be Alive. The sevens suits most likely have a life support system like master chiefs suit in halo. Another theory that I have is that jonesy could take some vibranium and use stark and seven tech to make his own suit. The story does have some plot holes but I saw somewhere that one of the creators of the comment said all will be explained in the future issues of the zero war comics. There needs to be some explanation between the paradigm and singularity because I assumed the mech was piloted in the singularity suit.

[@alexyoung3572]

Like everyone knows that paradigm is singularity it just hasn't been explicitly stated if I'm remembering correctly

[@UKlego]

I bought a physical copy of the comic and me being a huge dino nerd LOVED IT. Also hybrid is in my top 5 of favorite skins, so to see him return feels amazing. I just hope they do more with the hybrids in future issues, and not just have it be a one off thing.

[@caveat3215]

Rq, its implied that the suits the seven wear have built in food, water and oxygen like vader's suit

[@crowneddiamond]

I have a story theroy I wanna share with you guys: The last reality isn't over. During chapter 1 season 5, after rolling around the map and leaving runes, the cube rolled into loot lake and dissolved, turning the water into cube water. It didn't turn into cube water at all until the cube was fully dissolved, and everything immediately started bouncing. Sure flipping the island stopped the rift, but there's still a giant cube pyramid under the island. Then, during season 6, the island in the middle of the cube water rose up with the cube underneath it. Maybe the whole island could lift up like that? And also, during the chapter 2 end event, we can see one of those giant cube zombies swimming in water, without taking damage.

[@Optimusprime809]

The production value here, sheesh! You had entire maps on creative made just for this story, that's dedication!

[@Vverte]

I feel like there’s another plot hole here. If Paradigm was here the whole time just unconscious on the moon. Then... Was she not there in Season X for the End Event. In the Scientist’s logs when he mentioned “The Seven of us” I assumed he was talking about y’know, the Seven. But the Paradigm was on the moon. Was Paradigm not actually there with them in the End event? Was “The Seven of us” even the members of the Seven besides the Scientist of course who we know was there 100% So who piloted the rockets in the End event? Everyone assumed it was the Seven like me but because of Paradigm’s absence, one of those rockets was piloted by someone else. But who?

[@dragonscar3670]

There was only 6 rockets during the end event. It's a small detail you might not catch if you don't look close enough. I always wondered why there where 6 rockets and not 7 when thwy are called, well The Seven. But now that he know she was stranded in Ice, it's understandable that she wasn't there at the End event

[@KamonShirow]

Really appreciate you doing these issue breakdowns.

[@markanthonybejjani9480]

One more thing, there was a cover for a comic that showed doctor doom controlling the mech with his power. I’m excited.

[@rven8734]

Maybe the reason Paradigm is still alive is because of some kind of time dilation. She left the island and the loop, so maybe for her it was minutes or a day to two but inside the loop, 4 years passed? I'm just spit-balling here.

[@hollow5805]

Man... I couldn't get to Ironman in time, was too busy, oh well hopefully we get a better version in item shop in future

[@ryanf7387]

I think the Seven's suits supply them with water, food and other supplies to help them stay alive

[@olliecook2860]

[@anwenlokier2292]

In my school vr game reboot goalius was a entity created by the zero point itself but it’s abilities where showed during the boss fight against the kaon killer airtalon anyway during it he used spinjitzu from ninjargo pacifically the more powerful veriont forbidden spinjitzu then used gundam vidars pistols from gundam iron blooded orphans and then changed his voice to rustel elion and ordered a orbital strike

[@thejurassicking3817]

With the amount of plot holes can we just say that the zero wars comic books are none canon because everything they say makes everything confusing and no longer has a impact on the story it’s all in the past.

My theory on how Paradigm survived is that if you remember how Captain America was preserved and the ice when his plane crashed in 1945 he managed to survive 70 years.. So I think on the ICE MOON the Paradigm survived by being preserved in the ice.

[@TheEpicGalaxy21]

Didn't the last comic end with a shot of Doctor Doom being friends with Geno or something? Doctor Doom is probably pulling the strings on the marvel world regarding this Zero Point shard chase. How these hybrids got to the marvel world? No Idea, maybe they've got raptor people for sale at IO headquarters for Doom to buy or something....

I imagine Paradigm surviving may be down entirely to the loop. She left the island during the event. But she may still have been in the loop and if you reset every 20-30 minutes then you wouldn’t need to worry about food/water. There are holes in this theory but it’s what I think is going to be the explanation

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

The Loop does not extend outside of the Island's bubble. And neither the Seven nor the Imagined Order operatives are "in the Loop/Loopers", as in, they're protected from looping, just as Agent Jones was in Chapter 2 Season 5 during the Zero Point Crisis when he went to the surface deliberately, collected hunters from various realities, etc. They _can_ enter the Loop deliberately, like the scientist did in Season X to start his machine, and former I.O. agent Midas presumably did near the end of Ch2S2 to start his Device (confirmed by Donald Mustard stating on Twitter that the Midas on the raft at the start of Ch2S3 was looped when the shark ate him.

[@kinerealobren]

I'm still convinced that the pulse rifle and railgun are a result of IO reverse engineering Tony's tech that was left behind from when he was there. Also my head canon abut why Superman was there was because that was Slone's part of the deal with Luthor and Batman who laughs. Think about it, Luthor, BWL, and Deathstroke get Batman on the island to figure out some things for IO, and IO's part was to contain Superman on the island so he'd be out of Luthor's way. (Yes I know Superman was still in DC universe in the comics.)

[@FernardFresh]

Another thing. While driving the mech, paradigm was in her singularity armour, not her seven armour. Yet in the comic it's shown she is in her seven armour

[@TheEpicGalaxy21]

I don't know, maybe she did a wardrobe change sometime between Chapter 1 and 3...

Hello PlayStationGrenade! I subscribed to the highest ps plus tier (what you call ps plus premium). But I live in Saudi Arabia and we only have access to deluxe instead of premium. I was so excited for the cloud streaming feature but ps plus deluxe does not have this feature which prevents me from playing original ps3 games.
