The Ancestors: From Gwen to Spider-Man
Chapter 21 Drawing Comics in DC
Stepping on the land of Gotham, Diana looked around curiously.
Most of the people on the street are busy workers of all kinds, wearing all kinds of shirts and overalls, carrying various things.
From time to time, people from the upper class would pass by, but they often sat in elegant carriages and their true faces were not seen.
At present, it seems that apart from the unique architecture, this place is no different from other cities.
If she really had to use one word to describe the city in front of her, Diana would use "prosperity".
This is a prosperous and vibrant city. There seems to be a spectacular bridge that has just been completed in the distance.
Regarding Diana's evaluation, Peter could not deny it. Without a sufficiently prosperous experience foundation, how could it breed so many crimes and nurture so many gangs in the following decades?
"What are we going to do next?" Diana asked, following Peter.
Peter took her around a few streets and came to the door of a somewhat dilapidated newspaper office and said:
"First thing, buy it."
"Huh?" Diana looked at the small newspaper in front of her that was on the verge of bankruptcy and posted a transfer advertisement, then looked at Black Superman, frowning slightly,
She really couldn't understand the connection between the two.
Seeing that Black Superman had opened the door of the newspaper office and walked in, Diana could only follow him quickly.
The layout of the newspaper office is a bit sloppy, with some printing equipment placed everywhere. A man with a slovenly appearance and a haggard face is crouching in front of the desk and writing something.
When he saw the two people coming in, he was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Who are you?"
"I saw a transfer letter posted outside. We are interested in acquiring your newspaper."
When the man heard this, a warm and flattering smile appeared on his face for a moment.
This newspaper company is a business inherited from men's ancestors. Although it has always been tepid, it is generally considered reasonable.
However, after he took over, the management was not good and the newspaper operation became more and more difficult. He even fired two hired helpers to reduce costs.
The gangs that have recently expanded to nearby areas have made this already poor newspaper even worse, making it completely unsustainable.
The transfer notice from outside was just based on the idea of treating a dead horse as a living horse. After all, he did not expect that any wrongdoer would actually take over.
I didn’t expect that the sky is the limit!
Things were handed over very smoothly. During this period, points were collected everywhere. As long as Peter thought about it, there was no need to worry about things like money, it was just a matter of convenience.
The man has long wanted to get rid of this mess and is very cooperative.
On that day alone, Peter acquired ownership of the newspaper.
"Is there really no problem?" Diana asked worriedly after the man left.
Even she could roughly see the various problems accumulated in this newspaper, and it was not a wise choice no matter how she looked at it.
"None of the problems are a problem to us, Diana," said Peter.
Black Superman's calm words made Diana feel at ease. The man in front of her could always easily overcome many difficulties that ordinary people could not overcome.
So, she turned to ask: "Then what should we do now?"
"It's not what we should do, it's what you should do."
"Huh?" Diana tilted her head, showing a puzzled expression.
Peter said: "I ask you to clean up this newspaper office."
Although it seems a waste to use Wonder Woman to do chores around the house, who makes her his tool now?
Diana took a deep breath and glared at Peter angrily, but still obediently stepped forward to deal with it.
However, as an Amazon princess, although Diana was not pampered, things like chores were far out of reach for her.
This led to her stumbling around, and it took her a long time to clean and tidy up the newspaper office.
Facing Peter's inspection, she was inevitably a little unsure for a moment.
Fortunately, Peter didn't make things difficult for her. He just said, "Next time, try your best."
Diana breathed a sigh of relief and made up her mind to get familiar with these household chores as soon as possible!
Peter on the side had already taken advantage of this time to prepare all the tools he needed.
Diana looked closer and found that they were all paper, pens, and paints.
"Are you going to paint?" Diana asked.
Peter had already begun to draw something on the paper and replied: "Half of the answer is correct."
"What's the other half?"
When nothing else happened, Diana also dragged a chair over and sat aside to ask curious questions.
"comics."
"comics?"
In this era, although comics have already appeared, they can only be regarded as emerging and niche industries. They are often only published in some blank spaces in newspapers and exist in a vassal form.
The content of comics is mostly based on some interesting anecdotes in the real market, divided into frame-by-frame shots. It is said to be a comic, but in fact it is more appropriate to call it a comic strip.
After all, Diana is just a novice who has just entered human society. She has just gotten used to wearing clothes. How could she possibly know comics.
Fortunately, Peter possesses the speed of a speedster, coupled with an unscientific biological force field, and soon, finished comics are released from his hands.
For ordinary authors, it takes days or even weeks to create content, but with the blessing of his super brain and super speed, it can be completed in just an instant.
Diana was already used to the speed of Black Superman. At this time, she just quickly picked up the first comic and took a closer look.
"Iron Man Tony Stark?"
She soon discovered that the so-called comics tell stories in the form of pictures.
The first comic drawn by Black Superman was a story about a future world where a wealthy second-generation playboy and arms dealer named Tony Stark became a superhero and saved those who were persecuted by weapons and wars.
In this era, people had no concept of superheroes, including Diana, but she soon discovered that
Aren't the so-called superheroes a bit like Black Superman and her?
And they just ended a war.
She immediately felt immersed in the story, and the story itself was very interesting, with excellent graphics, and she enjoyed watching it with gusto.
It wasn't until she saw the end of this issue that she came back to her senses and quickly asked Peter,
"Then what? What happened next?"
The story just breaks off when Tony becomes Iron Man and reveals that his uncle turned out to be the culprit behind his kidnapping.
The naive Diana had never experienced this kind of experience before. Her anticipation was suddenly aroused, and because she was cut off from the chapter, she felt very uncomfortable.
Peter looked at her heart-itching look as she was broken, and he spread his hands with a smile and said:
"No, that's it for the first issue."
"How could it be gone! I still want to know what's behind it. Draw it quickly!" Diana couldn't help but pester Peter and said:
"You just drew this comic in less than two seconds. It's such a long day, you can keep drawing it!"
Peter raised his eyebrows,
You are so good, are you really not prepared to give me any rest time?
…
Ah, I really want a super brain too.
