American comics: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Counterworld, 890 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan.

In the secret base under the ruins of the manor.

Colin saw the latest reports on the New York mayoral election from the newspaper.

"The latest report from this newspaper is that at 14:00 on Wednesday afternoon, the results of New York's mayoral election were released. Wilson Fisk was elected in an overwhelming victory and will take over as the current mayor..."

"In his latest speech, Wilson Fisk vowed that he would lead New York on a new path. What does this sentence mean? Our reporter Ross interviewed the New York Times London Bureau Chief Steven Erlanger…”

"It can be said that New York is a special city, and the people have their own positions and objects of support, which has also led to the intensity of this New York mayor's election. Wilson Fisk is actually a nonpartisan and a businessman himself. His image has gained him a lot of points, especially when his opponents are frequently involved in scandals. People naturally dislike candidates from both parties and choose Wilson Fisk as their support candidate.”

"There is another reason for Wilson Fisk's victory, that is, the people of New York City are dissatisfied with public security. In recent times, frequent vicious incidents, especially the big explosion that occurred some time ago, have made people question the behavior of superheroes. Questioning, many people even associate it with those uncontrolled ‘vigilantes’.”

"The campaign policies proposed by Wilson Fisk happened to include content on 'vigilantes' and police reform, which attracted swing voters..."

Kingpin successfully ran for office and became the new mayor of New York.

For the vast majority of New Yorkers who don’t know what’s going on, this may just be an ordinary report.

However, Colin knew very well that there was more to it than what he saw on the surface.

Such an ambitious guy became mayor of New York City.

Next up, New York's superheroes may be in trouble.

After silently mourning for these superheroes in New York City, Colin put away his sympathy and continued to flip through the newspaper in his hand and read down.

At this time, [Super Hearing] heard footsteps coming from outside the corridor of the base. Colin stopped what he was doing and looked sideways at the door.

Click, click, click, the footsteps echoed in the empty corridors of the base, and finally stopped.

Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of Nick Fury, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and now the taxi driver.

"Can I come in?"

"Of course, please come in."

Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Colin responded to Nick outside the door.

Opening the door and walking into the room where Colin was, Nick Fury's only intact eye scanned the newspapers on the table and paused for a moment on the Kingpin campaign report. Then he turned to look at Colin and said: "Well, what do you think of the new mayor of New York?"

"I just hope Wilson can fulfill his campaign promise."

Facing Nick Fury's question, Colin shrugged and replied with an indifferent expression.

"Believe me, the changes Wilson has brought to New York City will definitely exceed your imagination."

Nick Fury looked at Colin and said with a meaningful expression.

I know this better than you.

Silently complaining in his heart, Colin made a surprised expression on the surface, looked at the other party and said: "It sounds like you are very confident in the new mayor?"

"There's more to Wilson than meets the eye."

Without answering Colin's question directly, Nick Fury said something pointedly, and then changed the topic to his purpose this time.

"The fighting teacher you asked me to find for you has arrived. However, it is necessary to remind you that this teacher has a bad temper. At the same time, not everyone can accept his fighting philosophy, but it is undeniable that he is A powerful warrior and an indispensable member of the Dark Avengers."

After getting vaccinated, Nick Fury took Colin to the place where he and Hawkeye had fought before.

There, Colin saw a tall man with a strong build.

He has short hair and gray hair on his temples. The white skull on his chest forms a strong contrast with his weather-beaten face.

really.

Looking at the man who appeared in front of him, Colin's heart flashed with confusion.

In fact, when he heard Nick Fury's reminder before, he had some vague guesses in his heart.

Now, meeting the real person has completely confirmed his thoughts.

Nick Fury's fighting teacher.

The Punisher - Frank Custer.

"Over to you, Frank."

He took Colin to the training ground and gave Frank a simple explanation before him. Nick Fury turned around and left without looking back.

Colin and the Punisher were left in the training ground, looking at each other in silence.

"..."

"I don't care why you joined the Dark Avengers."

In the silence, Frank spoke, looking at Colin with his low, metallic voice, and said: "Now that you have found me, I will train you in the strictest way. As for whether you can persist, that is up to you. Personal things.”

Frank made a cold expression, looking at Colin who did not show any sign of retreating because of his words, and a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly concealed: "First of all, the first thing I want to tell you is that you must never let your guard down, even for me."

As he said, he did not wait for Colin to react.

Flake, who was opposite him, fired decisively.

The sound of shooting echoed in the empty base.

After the gunshots fell, Colin stood still.

The brass bullet fell to the ground, making a thumping sound.

[Contact the distorted time node, collect a small amount of time fragments × 2]

At the same time, a line of looming text flashed before Colin's eyes.

Bang, bang, bang, bang——

Frank's expression did not change at all for Colin's [super strong defense]. He pulled the trigger in his hand, and the bullets sprayed towards Colin's body like a tongue of fire, shooting at the eyes, throat and other fatal places on ordinary people.

Fortunately, the defense of [Super Strong Defense] has no so-called weak points.

The bullet hit Colin's eyes, and although it affected his vision to a certain extent, that was all.

Facing Frank's fierce attack like a hail of bullets, Colin finally had a deep understanding of what Nick said before, that not everyone could accept his fighting philosophy.
