Why is the name "Lance of Longinus" preferred over "Spear of Destiny" or "Gungnir"? Shambala108 00:10, August 28, 2019 (UTC)

Gungnir and Lance of Longinus are two independently interesting mythological concepts that happen to be combined into a single object in the DWU, but "Lance of Longinus" is much more frequently used in the DWU (as you might guess from the title of Project: Longinus). – n8 () 18:27, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
