American comics: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

boom--

In the dark dimension, with the roar of Dormammu, the whole world was shaken violently. Countless planets' surfaces flashed with bright and dim lights. Even some planets close to Dormammu were directly invisible under its wrath. The power shattered into meteorites and scattered in all directions.

"Do you think you can escape from my hands like this, Colin Looper..."

Raging flames burst out from the head wrapped in flames. Dormammu stretched out his palm and a green light that was exactly the same as Colin's before flashed through his hand.

…

Positive World, London.

"My dear, I have a letter from you."

Handing the mailbox to his wife, lawyer Herbert Leigh Holman said with a gentle expression.

"My letter?"

Taking the letter from her husband, Vivien Leigh showed a puzzled expression on her face: "Is it mom?"

Herbert Leigh Holman: "Probably not. The postman said it was a letter from Los Angeles, USA."

Vivien Leigh: "Los Angeles?"

Hearing this, the doubts in Vivien Leigh's heart not only were not relieved but became even deeper. She opened the envelope in her hand in front of her husband. When she saw the contents inside, her face subconsciously showed joy. expression.

"What's wrong, whose letter is it from?"

Noticing the smile on his wife's lips, Herbert couldn't help but wonder.

"Maureen O'Sullivan, my close friend from the monastic boarding school. We once told each other about our dream of becoming an actress. But Maureen was luckier than me. She had already fulfilled this dream a few years ago and became an American actor. Well-known actress in Hollywood."

In fact, Maureen O'Sullivan's experience in starring in movies inspired Vivien Leigh to have the courage to tell her parents about her dream of becoming an actor, and she was admitted to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art for this purpose. However, her subsequent marriage forced her to give up her studies and drop out of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

"Yeah?"

After hearing his wife's explanation, Holman responded in agreement, but deep down he was somewhat indifferent.

As a successful lawyer, he was thirteen years older than Vivien Leigh. Although the age gap did not affect their love, in terms of values, Holman was not like Vivien Leigh. Wen Li is very interested in the performing arts, but on the contrary, he hopes that his wife can be like a traditional housewife and focus most of her energy on the family.

Somewhat excitedly telling her husband about her past dreams, Vivien Leigh returned her gaze to the letter in her hand, but the smile on her face gradually faded.

"What's wrong?"

Noticing the change in the expression on his wife's face, Holman couldn't help but ask.

"Maureen hopes I can go to Los Angeles, where there are performance opportunities..."

Putting down the letter in her hand, Vivien Leigh looked at her husband in front of her and said hesitantly. She was very clear about Holman's position on her performance. In fact, it was Holman's suggestion to drop out of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

"You know, this is impossible, Vivien, my work and career are in London. It is impossible for us to leave everything and go abroad for a so-called performance opportunity."

To this, Holman gave the answer almost without thinking.

"I know, I just."

Faced with her husband's objection, Vivien Leigh unconsciously clenched the letter in her hand.

She longed to perform, a dream she had always pursued.

…

"Long time no see, New York."

Leaving the erased timeline of Dormammu and entering the restarted time, Colin looked at the familiar but unfamiliar city in front of him, and felt a bit like he was in another world.

Although he was a little emotional, Colin also knew that he did not have enough time. He took a deep breath and [Super Hearing] and [Super Vision] instantly enveloped the entire city.

"Just a 'normal' world? "

By facing this

Colin was a little surprised when he observed this in New York City.

The dimensional world in front of him is more ordinary than he imagined. Although this world also has Avengers, these superheroes only exist as characters in comics. Avengers comics can be seen everywhere in bookstores. If it were not for the modern Style, Colin even thought he was back in the real world.

Of course, just like the subtle differences in countless parallel worlds, although the world in front of you is similar to the real world, there are also some differences between the two worlds.

"Is it just this difference?"

Maintaining a certain subtle feeling in his heart, Colin's eyes fell on the screen not far away. I don't know if it was a coincidence or something, but the latest superhero movie trailer was playing on it.

That's right, although there are no real superheroes in this world, there are still superhero movies, it's just the style of this movie.

…

Iron Man: "I thought you were my closest partner?"

Captain America: "Of course I am..."

Iron Man: "Then how do you explain your relationship with Bucky!"

Captain America: "Bucky is a thing of the past, you are the only one for me, Tony."

Iron Man: "Steve."

…

Hulk: "From now on, no one can define the color of my skin!"

Spider-Man: "But, your name is Black Widow, I mean..."

Black Widow: "How can you assume my gender because of a nickname?"

Spider-Man: "So, it's Mr. Black Widow?"

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail - 300x250' , target_type: 'mix' });

Black Widow: "No, I don't want to be bound by the binary gender. In fact, I feel that I am neither a boy nor a girl, so I prefer you to call me the gender-neutral "they"..."

To be honest, when Colin saw the trailer for this superhero movie for the first time, he didn't even know what he was watching. In the trailer, he saw the gay version of Iron Man and Captain America's gay love triangle across ages, and also saw the Hulk with the correct skin color and the gender-neutral Black Widow.

The trailer, which was less than two minutes long, was so full of "correct" connotations that Colin couldn't tell whether it was a real movie trailer or a spoof clip.

However, as he collected information about the world, he finally had to conclude that this was really a genuine superhero movie trailer for the world.

It's just that the correct concepts in this world are more extreme than the world before him.

A world where political correctness is rampant, although impressive, is not enough to stop Colin from traveling.

Rumble——

In the purple dimension world, just when Colin was about to erase this timeline, a huge explosion suddenly sounded in his ears.

In the "correct" world, looking in the direction of the explosion, a huge portal suddenly appeared in the streets of New York City.

"It seems like the situation has changed?"

Noticing the portal that appeared on the "correct" world timeline, Colin in the purple world subconsciously suspended the ability of the time stone fragment in his hand.

"My mercy is not unlimited..."

Walking out of the portal, crushing the vehicle in front of him, Thanos swept across the panicked crowd in front of him, and then issued a low warning.

"So, while I am still merciful, offer your tribute - the fragments of the Time Stone!"

Raising the Infinity Gauntlet in his hand, Colin can clearly see the Infinity Stones inlaid on the gloves and the incomplete Time Stone from Colin's perspective.

In fact, this is the first time Colin has truly seen Thanos.

However, what is more concerning than these is the purpose of Thanos coming here. Originally, he just regarded the world in front of him as an ordinary world with excessive political correctness. However, the appearance of Thanos reminded Colin that maybe The world in front of us is not as "ordinary" as it seems on the surface.

「

The last fragment of the time stone may be in this world! "

"But if the Time Stone fragment is in this world, why doesn't the text respond?"

Under normal circumstances, as long as it is a world where time stone fragments exist, Colin should get the [Time Fragment] prompt. However, he has stayed in this world for a while, but has never harvested any [Time Fragment]. This is also the reason why Colin mistook it for the ordinary world.

Maybe it's because this fragment of time gem itself has some kind of specialness?

Having had previous experience in Stark City, Colin was not unable to accept this setting.

Moreover, the situation in front of him did not allow him to hesitate. There is no doubt that Thanos's goal is the fragment of the Time Stone that exists somewhere in this world. Once he gets this fragment, then it is very likely that he will Putting the target on him, after all, leaving aside Dormammu, there are not many time fragments left, but at this time, he is in the purple dimension of another gemless fragment owner, Strange. among.

Of course, Colin can also choose to avoid direct contact with Thanos by erasing this timeline.

But this approach will also hand over the remaining fragment of the Time Stone to Thanos, and will also cause him to miss the opportunity to obtain a large number of [Time Fragments].

Instead of doing this, Colin is more willing to take the initiative. Even if he fails in the end, he can at least collect some [time fragments].

After the battle in the dark dimension of Dormammu, he has already obtained a certain amount of [Time Shards]. Next, he may be able to make up for all the remaining [Time Shards] through contact with Thanos.

What seems like a complicated thinking process actually lasts only a few seconds in the real world.

"Found it!"

When Colin made his decision, Thanos on the other side also tightened his grip on his arm wrapped in the Infinity Gauntlet. Under the pull of the remaining Infinity Stones, it instantly locked onto the last Time Stone. The location of the fragments.

When he saw Thanos disappearing through the portal, Colin immediately activated his [super vision] to search for the other party's existence.

Fortunately, the location of the time stone fragment did not leave New York City, so Colin quickly locked onto Thanos. Under the influence of [super speed], he was almost at the same place as Thanos in the portal. Time appeared in front of a nursing home.

"Looks like today is my lucky day."

After walking out of the portal, Thanos looked at Colin, who almost flashed in front of the nursing home with him. The corners of his eyes under the helmet were slightly raised, and then the expression on his face immediately became happy.

"Colin Looper!"

Colin was not surprised that Thanos knew his name. After all, he had seen Thanos more than once in the images captured by the Time Stone fragments. He did not think that this situation only existed for him. .

Clenching his arm wearing the Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos turned to Colin in front of him and was about to take action. Suddenly, a green light flashed on the thumb inlaid with a fragment of the time stone on his glove. At the same time, a flash of light appeared in the nursing home in front of him. Intense green light also burst out.

Colin and Thanos in front of the nursing home were both covered by this green light.

[Contact a special twisted time node and collect a large number of time fragments 150]

Sweeping by the green light representing the power of the time stone, the text in front of him also flashed prompts in time, reminding Colin of the situation in front of him.

Then, under Colin's gaze, it could be clearly seen that the flowers, plants and trees around the nursing home seemed to be shrouded in green light and began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye. No, shrinking is not accurate. This situation is more like a manifestation of reverse growth, and those blooming flowers return to the posture of flower bags.

Not only the flowers, but also the growing vines have a similar situation.

"Time goes backwards?!"

Seeing the flowers around the nursing home changing from flowers to flower bags and then back to seeds, Colin immediately thought of this ability.

Obviously, the ability of the time stone fragment in the nursing home should be to move forward time back to the past.

After figuring out the ability of this Time Stone fragment, the expression on Colin's face was not too happy. As a timeline that was also split through the Time Stone fragment's ability, he himself did not have any Time Stone fragments. This was also The ability to represent the fragment of the Time Stone in the nursing home also affects him.

Sure enough, looking down at his palms, Colin's body also regressed to the size of a young man like a flower under the influence of the time stone fragment's ability.

"Fortunately, the ability is not greatly affected."

Fortunately, this change affects more of the appearance. The internal physical qualities and superpowers do not disappear with the change of body shape, but only show a weakening trend.

"In addition, Thanos does not seem to be immune to the effects of time reversal."

Taking a deep breath and looking up at Thanos, who had also shrunk in size before him, Colin couldn't help but feel a little more excited.

Just like Colin, who had the Time Stone fragments at the beginning, he was unable to avoid the Red Skull's ability to erase the timeline. Although Thanos in front of him also had two Time Stone fragments, it seemed to be the same.
