Superman of the American Comics - Chapter 484
“Isn’t this guy crazy?”
Green Lantern Hal Jordan looked suspicious and asked Batman.
If there are superheroes present, who usually deals with psychosis, antisocial lunatics and perverts most.
The dark knight from Gotham dares to be second. It is estimated that no one dares to be second.
As we all know, Gotham is a city with simple folk customs and outstanding people.
Clowns, penguins, riddlers, black masks… Throw a brick into the sky when you go out, you can hit three or four villains.
“I’m not crazy.”
Dr. Manhattan replied.
He looked at the superheroes around him, but his eyes were in a trance and had no specific focus.
A few minutes ago, the space-time of the universe seemed to be disturbed, or affected.
The violent motion of superluminal particles, like a hazy gauze, obscures Dr. Manhattan’s quantum perception.
He can’t see what will happen in the future in a moment. It’s like a movie with a skipped plot. He can only predict the ending.
“I hope you can explain your identity, purpose and why?”
Batman stared at the blue man, trying to get useful information from each other’s expression.
However, nothing was achieved.
“This guy doesn’t look like an intelligent creature at all. He doesn’t even have the slightest emotional fluctuation.”
Batman’s heart sank and silently raised the other party’s risk index to a level.
Even a madman like a clown who can’t guess the logic of behavior will show some obvious emotional tendency.
But Dr. Manhattan is like a god overlooking mortals. There is nothing else but indifference.
“My purpose?”
Hearing the question, Dr. Manhattan’s eyes became more trance.
He looked through the fog of superluminal particles and came to July 16, 1940.
A young engineer named Alan Scott boarded the train, but unfortunately encountered a collapse when crossing the bridge.
He clung to a green lantern and miraculously survived.
This is the story of the justice society, the first generation of green lantern.
As time dragged on, Dr. Manhattan’s eyes fell on November 22, 1940.
Alan Scott put on a mask and sat at a round table, wondering who would speak first.
This is the first meeting of the justice society.
This is the story that should have happened.
Dr. Manhattan didn’t let this happen.
On July 16, 1940, Alan Scott boarded the train according to the original track of his life.
The bridge collapsed and the accident occurred.
A blue arm stretched out and moved the lantern of the green light.
So Alan Scott didn’t get it and didn’t survive.
The first green lantern of the justice society disappeared.
“This is an experiment.”
Dr. Manhattan replied.
His eyes stopped on Batman, but passed through each other’s bodies and looked into the distant past.
On April 18, 1938, Dr. Manhattan left the catcher universe and entered the DC Universe.
The first person he talked to was a down and out actor named “Carville Coleman”.
Dr. Manhattan just looked at each other and knew everything.
In December 1928, Carville Coleman came to Los Angeles alone with only seventeen dollars and a few sets of clothes.
On January 19, 1929, Carville Coleman had delivered newspapers at Paramount Pictures for eight months, and people still couldn’t remember his name.
On February 14, Carville Coleman lost his job because the studio was burned.
On February 12, 1937, Carville Coleman was expelled from Dan Tana restaurant because he skipped work to line up for an audition.
On April 18, 1938, Carville Coleman was evicted by his landlord and had to spend the night on the street.
Ten minutes before midnight, he was awakened by a blue light and saw himself.
Dr. Manhattan, who left the catcher universe, was confused for the first time.
He came to a new place and met new people.
The world, everything in the universe, is like a puzzle, which has not been answered yet.
So Dr. Manhattan did a simple experiment.
He invited down and out Carville Coleman to dinner and tried to foresee the future in three minutes.
However, it failed.
Dr. Manhattan realized that he needed a focused “coordinate”. He stared at Carville Coleman and saw the future a year later.
On April 18, 1939, Carville Coleman auditioned successfully.
A successful attempt to make Dr. Manhattan look at the flowers from the fog and return to normal.
His quantum senses seem to be constantly using this multiverse.
The future looks more and more clear.
On April 18, 1943, the box office of the film starring Carville Coleman was on fire.
On April 18, 1952, Carville Coleman won the Oscar and won the honor of best actor.
On April 18, 1954, Carville Coleman got cancer and was about to die.
On April 18, 1955, the opposite seat was empty.
In a short moment, Dr. Manhattan saw the man’s life.
Then he noticed a more interesting existence than Carville Coleman.
On April 18, 1938, news about Superman quickly spread all over the United States.
A man in a red cloak raised a car.
Dr. Manhattan noticed that this was the beginning of world change.
A theoretical physicist named Bryce DeWitt put forward a hypothesis that the universe is divided into different time lines all the time.
According to this theory, the birth of parallel world is endless, just like the branches of a big tree.
“Multiverse.”
Dr. Manhattan opened his mouth and said something that superheroes on Mars don’t understand.
His eyes were still moving around the timeline. Superman first appeared on April 18, 1938.
Dr. Manhattan keenly felt that the man in the red cloak called “Superman” was not only the first cross dressing hero in the world, but also the center of the world and the multiuniverse.
With the emergence of Superman, young engineer Alan Scott will become the green lantern in July 1940.
In January of the same year, a college student named Jay Garrick lost consciousness and inhaled heavy water vapor in a school experiment.
When he wakes up, he will be the fastest man in the world.
This is a flash.
In the same month, archaeologist Carter hall came into contact with an ancient knife, which awakened the memory of being an Egyptian prince in a previous life.
This is eagle man.
In May, a golden helmet with unknown supernatural power fell to Kent Nelson.
This is Dr. destiny.
In October, Al Pratt, frustrated by his size, found one of the greatest fighters in the world and began training under him.
This is the atom smasher.
In April 1939, Wesley doz dreamed of a serial killer who made trouble at the World Expo.
Wearing a gas mask, he caught the murderer.
This is the first generation of sleeping demons.
In February 1940, Jim Corrigan’s body lay quietly.
After that, he came back from the dead and sought revenge.
This is a generation of ghosts.
In November 1940, everyone gathered and the American Justice Association was established.
Dr. Manhattan read the past and the story of cross dressing heroes.
Then something unexpected happened to him.
When Dr. Manhattan looked back, he was surprised to find that Superman had disappeared.
It seems to have been deleted. No one has heard of it anymore.
Until 1956, the man in the red cloak appeared in metropolis.
Twenty five years ago, a meteorite fell over Kent farm in Kansas.
Jonathan and Martha found the krypton orphan and adopted him as “Clark Kent”.
Superman disappeared because a mysterious force that even Dr. Manhattan could not detect changed his story.
Such changes affect every world of the multiverse at the same time.
In October 1986, when Superman arrived on earth, it changed again, and the story was different.
Dr. Manhattan is confused.
He can’t understand such a phenomenon.
Why do established facts change again and again?
In May 1949, young Clark Kent sat in front of his bed, accompanying his dying parents.
In 1956, Dr. Manhattan watched Clark sweeping the grave.
In October 1986, he saw the Kents who should have died. They were still alive.
A few years later, Jonathan Kent died in his son’s arms again.
Dr. Manhattan stands quietly in the palace of Mars, but his consciousness travels through the past and future.
Time is like an empty room to him.
He can not only exist in the past, but also be based on the future.
“I misunderstood the nature of the universe.”
Dr. Manhattan spoke again and said something that other superheroes didn’t understand.
He no longer sticks to the past, but looks to the future.
Following the track of Superman, I saw a thousand years later.
Clark Kent still exists, not disappeared like Carville Coleman.
As a result, Dr. Manhattan had an uncontrollable curiosity.
After becoming a quantum life, the world no longer has any secrets to him.
Human beings are too ordinary and life is too mediocre.
All things seem to be the same, but they are beyond recognition.
Until he came to DC Universe and found Superman, Dr. Manhattan rediscovered what he was interested in.
For example, reshaping the multiverse.
If this world, even other parallel universes, exist and change because of Superman.
So what will happen if he directly changes Superman?
Therefore, Dr. Manhattan eliminated the first generation of Green Lantern, Alan Scott.
On the eve of Clark Kent high school prom, Jonathan and Martha died in a car accident.
Clark, who has lost his parents, is increasingly estranged from human relations.
Since then, Dr. Manhattan has made several changes.
For example, let Jonathan Kent die in a tornado.
Or let Superman die on destruction day.
More and more great changes make the multiverse fluctuate violently.
Three generations of the flash, Wally West, discovered Dr. Manhattan.
Later, Batman also glimpsed it.
“I want to know my ending.”
For the last time, Dr. Manhattan said what the superhero didn’t understand.
When he made these changes and observed the changes of Superman, the world and the multiverse.
The blue man saw the end of the future.
Superman waved his fist at himself angrily, and then there was darkness.
In the following 100 years, 1000 years, there was no change.
“So, did I destroy the world, or did Superman kill me?”
Manhattan’s trance eyes seemed to find the focus and looked at the superhero who surrounded him.
