Marvel's Antiheroes

"The Ark patent case is confusing, Xia Guohandao Group filed three counterclaims against Stark Industries"

"Dr. Ivan Vanko declares: The Starks are thieves"

"Stark Industries CEO Pepper Potts said everything is pending a verdict."

At 11 a.m. Eastern Time on November 16th, the 9th Police Station in Brooklyn, New York.

Looking at the front-page headlines of today's newspapers, Patrolman Duke couldn't help pinching his brows.

Duke is very familiar with Stark Industries, Stark and Sons, Ivan Vanko, and Pepper Potts, whether in the current world or the previous world.

In the former world, they all came from a company called Marvel. They originally appeared in comics and became well-known around the world after being adapted into movies.

But in the world Duke lives in now, these characters actually exist, and they all stand at the top of the pyramid in this world.

This all goes to show that Duke is now in a Marvel Universe.

Somehow

Duke felt extremely baffled.

Before he went to sleep, he was still on the earth. When he opened his eyes, he was already here.

When Duke just woke up, he thought he was in a dream.

After all, he had just reviewed the Avengers Trilogy before going to bed, and he fell asleep with Thanos snapping his fingers.

Is it possible that I am still dreaming and immersed in the world of Avengers?

Therefore, he continued to sleep for a while, then washed his face with cold water three times, took a cold shower, and bit his left arm severely.

The severe pain and two rows of deep impressions on his arm told Duke that he was not in a dream.

He has now accepted the reality and has become a glorious time traveler from a place called Earth.

According to the Marvel parallel universe theory that Duke knew about in his previous life, he probably came to a different Marvel universe, but he didn't know what the number was.

But Duke can be sure that this universe is not the main universe earth616 and the ultimate universe earth1610, nor is it the movie universe numbered earth199999.

Because in those three universes, Ivan Vanke is a Luther, and even his father is a Luther. His biggest role is to set off the two rich and handsome men, Tostak and his son.

According to Duke's special understanding recently, this world has undergone some deviations after World War II, and developed a Marvel universe that is basically similar to the Marvel Universe that Duke is familiar with, but has many different historical trajectories.

For example, in this world, Ivan Vanke and his son are doing well.

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Xia State of this world sent out a large number of "wall poaching parties" and "hair harvesting parties."

These people waved Xia Guo coins in various original member countries of the Soviet Union and brought back a large number of experts and equipment.

As a top scientist, Ivan Vanke's father Anton Vanke can definitely be regarded as the Crystal Wall and the Golden Fleece, so he naturally became a tough target.

Now, Anton Vanke has retired, and Ivan Vanke, who has received systematic education and a lot of resources, is no longer the King of Thunder and Lightning, known as Professor Yang, but the chief scientist of the Xia Guo Handao Group and the leader of this giant group. The second largest shareholder, with a net worth of over one billion US dollars.

This is not surprising. In another universe, Anton Vanke relied only on his father's teachings and self-study, and using simple tools, he was able to design and produce prototypes of exoskeleton armor and the original energy weapon Death Whip, and was able to program robot control software. Super genius.

He has a rich net worth, a strong body, and although he is not handsome in appearance, his wild temperament and the conflicts brought about by his identity as a top scientist make Ivan Vanke especially ranked among the top five diamond kings in the world. Above Tucker, he ranks second, second only to the American team who shows off his chest muscles on the screen all day long. He is a sure winner in life.

Under the pressure of Ivan Vanko, Tony Stark had already researched the Ark before he was kidnapped.

The rich play with technology, while the poor rely on mutation.

The two most powerful technology players on the planet despised each other while working hard at each other, and they didn't know how far they had gone.

Now, with the support of the big powers behind each other, the two major groups are engaged in a heated war of words over patents.

Well, none of this has anything to do with Duke, or not yet.

Among the well-known Marvel characters that can be seen in newspapers, the one who has some relationship with the current Duke is probably Kingpin.

Yesterday's newspaper published news of the listing of Jin Bing's company Fisker Group. This listed company's business scope covers 150 profitable industries such as real estate development, house leasing, hotel management, import and export trade, etc. and has received numerous investments. Favored by investors, the stock price rose by that day.

Although there is no word about Kingpin in the newspaper, the huge fat man in the photo who can stretch his muscles to his nose, who else besides Kingpin?

He was very familiar with this nose. After all, he once studied with his friends at the wine table whether Jin Bin's little brother was a cavernous body or a muscle because of this nose.

Thinking of this, Duke felt a little sad. He finally managed to get in touch with the department head, but when he woke up, everything came to nothing.

His current identity is just a small policeman in the Brooklyn Police Department, with no high position or authority.

Speaking of which, in Duke's previous life, the position of police officer was more popular than that of his department head.

This is a national iron rice bowl, a profession with high income, benefits and social status.

But now he is in the United States, the United States in the Marvel universe.

What are police officers? They are cannon fodder. They are cannon fodder that will disappear as soon as they come to collect their lunch boxes.

Beaten to death by fists, hacked to death by swords, shot to death by bullets, crushed to death by artillery shells, crushed to death by cars

If detailed statistics are taken, there can be at least 10086 scenes of police deaths in Marvel's comics and film and television works, and at least 108 methods of death.

What’s even more tragic is that the police are not important in these shots.

unimportant

unimportant

Say it three times whether it is important or not.

However, if these general circumstances are put aside, Duke's status as a police officer is considered a very good job among Chinese Americans.

At least the police halo around him can make black people in Brooklyn afraid to make mistakes.

On Eighth Avenue, the Chinese gathering place in Brooklyn, every Chinese policeman is extremely valuable. He can "cover" a small area and keep away the black loitering who can only see his teeth at night.

After all, this is just Brooklyn, a rotten spot on the Big Apple, not the rotten sore that is Hell’s Kitchen.

Although Duke is of mixed Chinese and American descent, according to the traditional Chinese patriarchal concept, his American mother cannot affect his position among the Chinese.

In the eyes of Americans, Duke, a mixed-race man, is already considered one of them. After all, this is a mixed country, and 99% of Americans are mixed-race, of various kinds.

So since childhood, with this, coupled with his strong body and flexible mind, he has not suffered much.

Even applying to become a police officer went without any setbacks.

And his relationship with Jin Bin is mainly because one of his jobs is to deal with Jin Bin's subordinates' subordinates.

"The underworld can now be conducted like a sale. The chairman and the board of directors will be Jin Bin."

Jin Bin, who said these words and put them into practice, is not yet within Duke's reach.
