The rise of comics

"The Rise of American Comics"

the same moment.

People around the world who are still able to communicate with the outside world have received a video pop-up request from an unknown source on their personal handheld devices.

After many people clicked in, they were surprised to find that it was Superman and six Green Lanterns of unprecedented scale who were confronting a terrifying existence high in the sky over a ruined land.

The huge emerald green light beam seemed to penetrate the heaven and earth, tightly imprisoning the only figure enveloped in it. As for Superman, he seemed to be a little distracted. Not only was there sweat on his forehead, but there was also a trace of blood around his eyes. Circle of red burn marks.

That was caused by his excessive stimulation of heat vision. Even with his strong recovery power, it would not be able to completely eliminate the residual damage caused by it for a while.

"Did you hear that London has been completely destroyed, and all European countries have begun emergency evacuation..."

"A monster appeared out of nowhere and destroyed London. The army was powerless to fight back. Even nuclear weapons could not hurt the terrible monster..."

"Is it another alien invasion?"

"It's so scary... It's a sign of the end of the world! Who else can come to save us!"

"Humanity is going to be finished..."

"It was almost like a nightmare."

"I have lost contact with my classmates in London. Can anyone help me?"

"........."

People in other places, whether walking on the street or staying at home, are constantly exchanging various latest information through the Internet and chatting.

This matter was too big to hide. In just a few hours, the disaster in Europe shocked all countries and regions on the earth, especially for the American people on the other side of the coast. Terrorist disasters can be said to be more sensitive... After experiencing the Kryptonian invasion of Metropolis, the coming of Doomsday, and the major incident in the Land of Ice Sculptures, people have become more cautious and suspicious about safety, and this incident , although it did not happen on American soil for the first time, it was worse than the previous two major disasters. People around the world were panicked and became a mess. The government's speech and the speech on the Internet were intertwined. People could not help but I don’t know who to believe, or who can solve this unprecedented disaster, until now... A mysterious live broadcast ignited the hearts of all anxious people, and more people began to click on this unknown video Pop-up windows, witnessing the world tilting left and right on the balance of destruction and peace.

And the person who established this live communication... was the steel frame in the watchtower.

Thousands of high-precision periscope micro drones have already quietly entered the sky and land through the observation tower, and are scattered far away on the battlefield where Superman and Gaia are fighting. They are directly controlled remotely by Cyborg and are being closely monitored. What happens next.

The Justice League can be said to be on the opposite side of the government at this moment. In order to restore people's hearts and image, Cyborg must let as many people as possible around the world see that the Justice League is fighting on the front line against Gaia at this moment. They The fact that they are the guardians of mankind will never change. Even if they are hostile to the government, they have to give an explanation to the people.

"Cyborg, will this cause greater panic if we do this?"

Martian Manhunter hesitated, feeling that something was wrong with this matter.

"People need to see the truth."

Constantine spoke in the communication channel.

"This war originally belonged to all of us. Now... I just hope Superman and the others can delay it for as long as possible."

"Don't we have any chance of winning?"

Oliver looked grave.

"Gaia can never be defeated so easily. Don't forget, his body has not yet been released from the seal... This will be the most difficult battle for us."

Slowly walking to the floor-to-ceiling window of the conference hall, Constantine looked solemnly at the blue planet below. His eyes seemed to travel through the space, and he saw the back of the red cloak under the clouds.

...........

"You are finally back."

After ascending to the low-Earth orbit space level, Clark looked around at the six Green Lanterns in front of him, and finally rested his eyes on Hal Jordan, showing a wry smile.

"These are my friends."

Hal responded.

"It's a pity... I can only bring them together. The elders of Oua Star do not allow the lantern group to go out... These friends took the initiative to help after hearing about this incident."

Hal spoke briefly, but Clark could still tell from the details in his eyes and facial expressions that his request for help this time must have been very unsuccessful.

"This is a matter that belongs to the earth and mankind itself."

Clark sighed, looked at the other five Green Lanterns, and nodded sincerely.

"But I still want to thank you for lending a helping hand to humanity at this time...Thank you."

"Actually, our lantern group's ancestors came to the earth a long time ago and helped to resist the invasion of foreign enemies. It is reasonable for us to come here this time. Although the earth does not belong to the universe sector under our jurisdiction, I believe that if we change If the same thing happens, Hal will definitely come to help us without hesitation."

A tall and thin alien Green Lantern who looked like a brown octopus spoke.

The lantern rings have a universal translation function. Although the Green Lantern's language is not any on earth, it does not prevent Clark from understanding the meaning.

"What are you going to do?"

Clark also knew that this was not the time for small talk. He turned around and looked at the figure shrouded under the emerald green light pillar.

"Our willpower is indestructible and will completely wrap this guy with the energy of the light ring. When the power of the light ring is compressed to the extreme, it is like creating gravity, creating an energy planet shaped by willpower. ', sealing the other party inside so that he will never be able to escape."

Another burly, giant-shaped Green Lantern, nearly three meters tall, said in an angry voice.

But he was quickly slapped in the face.

The green light beam penetrating the sky and the earth suddenly began to vibrate violently, and an equally terrifying repulsive force was repelling the restraints of willpower energy. The intensity of this repulsive force shocked the six Green Lanterns. Their combined power could not even imprison Superman. Then, in less than a minute, Gaia actually shook the power of the green lantern and wanted to get out. The six lanterns quickly increased their energy output again.

The energy source in his hand, the green lamp, also burst out crazily with a steady stream of light, sending it to the lamp rings in the hands of the six people.

"If you want to fight against the true God, soon... you will understand that no matter what you do, it will be in vain."

Gaia, trapped in the energy torrent, whispered to herself.

He crushed the fusion energy ball in his hand.

"Oops!"

Clark's pupils shrank, and the destructive ripples exploded, briefly scattering the energy beam. Although it recovered instantly the next moment, Gaia's figure had disappeared in this energy torrent.

"Exploded?"

One of the Green Lanterns looked confused and surprised.

But suddenly, a terrifying feeling of danger suddenly hit him from behind.

"Interesting power, but you shouldn't be here on Earth to meddle in other people's business."

The whisper was accompanied by an irresistible repulsive force, and before he could even shout, the Green Lantern was instantly shattered into a piece of emerald green dust by the invisible force.

The light ring also escaped at the speed of light in an instant. The light flashed away, and the energy lamp that had lost its connection also dimmed and fell towards the clouds below... The unknown Green Lantern just died.

"Bep!"

Hal roared angrily and immediately stopped the output of the energy beam. The light ring in his hand shaped a huge energy sword and slashed head-on at Gaia who suddenly appeared.

But Gaia just straightened her arms and spread her palms, and the terrifying invisible repulsion silently erupted again, instantly shaking away the remaining five Lanterns and Clark.

Fortunately, the Green Lantern named Bep bought everyone reaction time. Several Lanterns used their willpower to form the same invisible barrier covering their bodies, resisting the attack and not following in the same footsteps.

The energy torrent shaped by the power of the green light was completely interrupted, and the huge emerald-green light pillar flickered for a few last times in the boundary between the sky and the earth, and then slowly disappeared.

"You guys go away quickly, I'll stop him!"

Clark was rushed into space dozens of miles away, but then he stopped abruptly, roared and blasted a sonic boom, and in an instant he was in front of Gaia again.

With muscles all over his body bulging, Clark raised his fist above his head and smashed it down hard.

This punch really was like distorting space. Before the fist could reach Gaia, it had already exploded the thin atmosphere a hundred meters around the two of them into a vacuum, and the shock wave rolled away in all directions.

But... it was such a terrifying attack, but Gaia flicked his wrist without changing his expression, and easily caught this unparalleled punch that was enough to sink an island.

Without any unnecessary words, Gaia grabbed Clark's fist and wrapped her arms around his arm as quickly as a spiritual snake. Then she changed her palm position and twisted his throat with lightning speed.

"Uh!"

His eyes widened, and Clark's face suddenly turned red.

The next second, they moved through space and appeared on the solid earth from the low-Earth orbit space layer.

Gaia just squeezed Clark's throat and stood on the bumpy land that had been bombed before. He seemed to enjoy this process. He did not use all his strength directly, but slowly tightened the invisible power in his hand. To see Superman's blood splatter in his eyes.

"Let go of Superman!"

Five lanterns swooped in mid-air, dragging a long green shadow behind them. Hal Jordan and others were firing on all cylinders, using the lantern rings to materialize their willpower into countless weapons and energy. The attack was overwhelming towards Gaia.

But just like what happened before... Gaia ignored the attacks of the Lanterns at all. An indestructible invisible shield seemed to be formed three meters away from him, allowing the green energy of will to bombard him, but Not a single attack could break through the barrier and touch Gaia itself.

"Actually, I admire you very much, Superman. You should have had the opportunity to break away from these low-level ants and become a higher-level existence, but you chose the stupidest path."

Gaia said indifferently and calmly, looking at Clark's increasingly red face and his eyes that were about to turn white, and the strength in his hands continued to increase.

He knew that this scene was being broadcast by Cyborg's drones at this moment, but he didn't care. On the contrary, in the next second, he was going to kill the 'hope' in their hearts in front of all mankind.

but...

Click.

There was a crisp sound like something breaking. Gaia subconsciously turned her head, but before he could show any expression of surprise, a heavy fist wrapped in black metal carried red light and shadow lightning. , has come to his face.

boom----!

As if being hit by a mountain with a speed of [-] miles per hour, Gaia, who was standing on the same spot, flew backwards in an instant. The impact was so powerful that it even set off a storm like a level [-] storm, with violent airflow blowing and mixing. With a crackling explosion, the ground was plowed into a gully several thousand meters long... Countless gravel and soil flew up, exploding with the lanterns' rain-like attacks. Amidst the smoke, a black steel figure came out supporting Clark.

"Then I think you might like me too."

Bruce's unique deep voice came out from the ferocious steel armor.

At the critical moment, he finally arrived.

"You are..."

Looking at the tall figure beside him who was supporting him, Clark coughed violently, but he did not hide the strong surprise in his eyes.

The Batman in front of him was wearing a full-body armor that no one had ever seen before. Although it could be vaguely seen that he still looked like a bat, it was very different from any of Bruce Wayne's previous outfits.

The ink-like black formed distinct layers of light and shadow on his body, giving people a strong visual impact. The bright red bat mark was engraved on his chest, which looked both ferocious...and monsterous. The beasts flying up and down behind him The cloak is like two spread black wings. Although no facial expression can be seen on the completely covered face, there are two sword-like red metal lenses slanting up from the eye sockets, which seem to have thick blood. It's flowing slowly.

This dark oppression and thickness made him feel like a demon from the abyss of hell.

"This is...c52 plan!"

In the air, Hal and others who had stopped attacking looked at the sudden appearance of the demonic figure in a daze. Among the five Lanterns, only Hal Jordan knew what this suit of armor meant.
