American comics: You're asked to fish, but you catch a Superman template?

Page 582

Luther's personality: "Who is that?"

Pedestrian: "That's Superman."

Luthor's character: "Superman?"

"Miss Mischief sent Lex Luthor to the world of Superman, so there are two Lex Luthors in this world, one is the hero Lex Luthor, and the other is the villain Lex Luthor?"

Because this is a short comic book, the story ended when Luthor arrived in Superman's world.

However, after seeing the scene of Superman flying through the comic, the pedestrian was in high spirits. At that moment, he no longer cared about the Daily Courier, but only about the aftermath of this short story.

Grabbing the newspaper in his hand, the pedestrian imagined Superman meeting this other Luther, and the mere thought made his heart skip a beat.

"Why is there only this short segment in the program? I still want to see the rest," he said.

"The next few episodes won't be released until Wednesday."

His gaze fell on the last panel of cartoons in the newspaper, where a pedestrian spoke with a serious expression.

"No, we don't need to wait another day!"

Then he reacted again: he turned the newspaper to the front page and stared blankly at the newspaper as he read the Daily Courier.

"Wait one more day, and you'll see what happens next."

Thinking about it this way, the pedestrian calmed down a little.

"From now on, you can see Superman every day."

Repeating the newsboy's slogan, the passerby reread the Superman short film, then slammed it in the messenger's hand and closed the newspaper.

Undoubtedly, Xu Fu placed this advertisement. Although journalists claimed to see Superman's serialization in the Daily Courier every day, they did not say whether the serialization was long or short.

This will certainly provoke some readers' aversion, but the short story is so good that it extinguishes the aversion in the crowd and turns it into anticipation for the rest of the story.

In particular, the different universes in the story are exciting for readers who have read the comic book's setting.

The concept of parallel universes remains a rare topic in our time.

The concept wasn't fully developed until 1957, when it was proposed by physicist Hugh Everest III. It wasn't until 1957, after Everest III proposed the concept, that it became widely known; before that, it existed only as a prototype and was largely unknown.

In other words, Xu Fu unknowingly depicted the concept of parallel universes in his comics long before the movie was released, making the public aware of the concept ahead of time and becoming the leader of this concept.

Of course, even Xu Fu himself may not have noticed this.

After all, in his time, the concept of parallel universes was already quite well-known to the public, especially since the anti-world he inhabited could actually be seen as a parallel universe distorted by time by some superheroes.

Chapter 665 The Prison on the Raft

A solitary island stands in the middle of a vast ocean.

On the island, on the turbulent sea, a building heavily guarded by security personnel looks cold and gloomy.

Raft Prison, also known as Island Prison, was originally part of Rikers Island Prison and was the highest-security branch on the island. Later, the Thunder Force acquired ownership of the prison and transformed it into the most powerful prison, housing the most vicious and unstoppable criminals.

"gentlemen!"

As the helicopter landed in the center of the Raft Prison, Harry Osborn stepped out, ignoring the sea breeze blowing from all directions.

As soon as Harry stepped out of the helicopter, prison officials who had been waiting on the roof rushed up to him.

After the Thunder Force was forced to disband under Taskmaster's leadership, control of the prison program shifted to a new leader, Harry Osu.

He nodded, unaware of the satisfied expression on his leader's face.

Harry turned to look at the surging waves surrounding the prison, then asked, "Let's confirm the target's status for now."

"We have confirmed this situation, and the objective remains unchanged."

Upon hearing Harry's question, the person in charge also composed himself and reported.

"Take me there."

Turning his gaze to the sea, Harry Osborn spoke.

"Please follow me, sir."

Faced with Harry Osborn's request, the warden naturally had no reason to refuse. He nodded and walked into Raft Prison.

Because the prison was built on an island, it was always very humid, and the maritime climate always made people feel depressed.

The specially built prison ignores the screams and anger inside.

Led by the warden, Harry Osborn stopped at the door of the lowest cell on the prison platform. Looking at the fine sand flowing in the specially designed seawater prison, Harry's expression changed slightly.

Noticing the commotion outside the cell, the fine sand flowing through the seawater prison began to coalesce, and under Harry Osborn's gaze, slowly formed a human face on the nascent lake surface.

"William Baker".

In the prison raft, Harry looked out through the seawater chamber at the lake that resembled a lake made of fine sand, and slowly uttered another person's name.

William Baker, a former street gangster, accidentally stumbles into Georgia's desert nuclear test site while escaping from prison.

After being exposed to nuclear radiation in the desert, William Baker's molecular structure changed, merging with the sand and turning him into the Sandman.

After discovering that he could control sand at will, William Baker, the Sandman, decided to use this ability to commit crimes.

His ability to control and freely transform into sand caused immense trouble for the Thunder Force members at the time; most physical attacks, including Luke Cage's, failed to inflict significant damage on him. Eventually, Natasha noticed her opponent's weakness, using a large amount of water to slow William Baker's transformation speed. Bloodbird intervened, using sound waves to control his consciousness and transport him to a special cell in Raft Prison.

To prevent William Baker from escaping again, Thunderfury built a seawater prison, which Harry saw before him.

William Baker's body was washed away by the flowing water, preventing him from forming.

Meanwhile, the vast sea surrounding the raft prison prevented William Baker from escaping again.

"who are you?"

Inside the cell, their facial expressions began to change when they heard the name come out of Harry's mouth.

More sand compacted, forming a face that resembled the surface of a lake. William Baker spoke with difficulty, his sand-filled eyes staring directly at Harry outside the cell.

"Harry Osborn, the new head of the Thunder agents."

"The new leader of the Thunder Special Forces?"

Harry's answer caused a change in William Baker's voice in the cell.

William Baker's mind had been severely clouded by his long imprisonment, but his hatred for the Thunder had never been forgotten.

Or rather, it was this hatred that kept William Baker sober amidst the whirlpools of the ocean.

"exactly."

Harry nodded, glanced at William Baker's sand-covered face at the camera, and outlined the purpose of his visit.

"Due to special circumstances, the original Thunder Force was forced to disband, and the Superhuman Behavior Oversight Committee entrusted me to lead the formation of a new Thunder Force."

When forming the new Thunderbolts, Harry clearly did not intend to follow past traditions.

He needs to assemble a team that is completely obedient to his code of conduct, not just a team of superheroes.

To this end, he used Osborn's resources to persuade the members of the Superman Oversight Committee to agree to recruit his own team from within the Raft Prison.

“I can give you your freedom, but in exchange, you must join my team and take orders.”

Looking directly at William Baker in his cell, Harry made his proposal.

"I accept."

Without much hesitation, William Baker agreed to Harry's request.

For him, he would do anything to get out of that damn cell.

After receiving William Baker's reply, Harry turned and nodded to the warden standing to one side.

"gentlemen."

The latter's expression showed some hesitation; after all, William Baker was one of the most dangerous prisoners in Raft Prison, and he had gone to great lengths to get into this specially built prison with the thunderous man.

Just thinking about the powers he had previously been given as a commissioner to oversee Superman's actions.

The warden was still gritting his teeth as he issued the order: "Search area G."

"As ordered!"

Under orders from the person in charge, the pipes connecting the cells were opened, and the seawater filling the cells was drained.

Ten minutes later, the seawater was removed from the sealed room, causing it to become damp and forming a puddle that looked like mud on the floor.

Chapter 666 delivered a counterattack.

Upon seeing the mud in the cell, the warden swallowed hard and instinctively placed his hand on the gun at his waist.

Although he knew in his heart that the bullets could not cause any harm to the target in the cell, the cold touch of the gun on his belt still gave this key player a moment of false security.

And so it went: Harry and the main characters were all looking at the camera.

The silt began to move, revealing the yellow sand inside. The yellow sand seemed to have come to life without anyone noticing, gradually compacting and finally forming a shape composed entirely of gravel.

"Open the door to area G."

Looking at the figure in the cell, Harry opened his mouth as if to give an order, but only heard William Baker deny it.

"no need."
