American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

244. The Justice League Appears!



The sudden appearance of the portal caught everyone off guard.

Countless gang members and onlookers erupted in excitement. They surged toward the barriers, trying to get closer to the battlefield to see the heroes more clearly.

The eerie green clouds descended like a towering tsunami, pressing down on everyone below. The sky's edge darkened, and flashes of strange lightning illuminated the thick, ominous clouds as if some terrifying shadow was lurking above them.

Red Skull squinted slightly. Even he felt a twinge of fear under this oppressive scene, but at the same time, an indescribable emotion surged within him. His heart was racing. After forty years, he could finally feel the thrill of being alive again. After so long locked in the White House, he had nearly forgotten what it meant to feel alive.

And now, with the stage set and the audience assembled, the grand drama was about to begin!

The ground around the portal cracked as eerie green flames spread along the fissures. The uneven surface resembled flowing lava. It was hard to imagine such an entrance for "superheroes."

The green flames instilled unease in those watching. Some timid spectators felt their legs weaken, and the swirling light in the air made it hard to see what was happening inside. They could only sense that some terrifying presence was awakening and about to step into reality.

The mist gradually cleared, and the twisted shadows began to reveal themselves to the crowd. As their vision became clearer, seven imposing figures stood tall in the center of the square.

"Th-That's…"

A trembling voice broke the silence. At that moment, every gaze was locked on those seven figures.

No one dared breathe, fearing they might disturb these overwhelming presences. If anyone had mocked the superheroes in private before, they certainly wouldn't be able to utter a word now.

"They've finally come, the Justice League." Red Skull clenched his fists, gazing at the distant figures with a mix of familiarity and unfamiliarity, his whole body trembling with excitement.

Equally stirred was Jason Todd, standing next to him. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on those figures, his mind momentarily blank.

"No, it's impossible… They're supposed to be…"

In Red Hood's memory, these familiar faces had long perished beyond the stars. It was impossible for them to be here, let alone to save him. But when he saw their faces clearly, he was so shocked that his breath became rapid. As the successor of Batman and one of Gotham's nightmares, Jason Todd rarely lost control of his emotions.

But now, he admitted he couldn't contain them. Staring at the seven figures, one of whom stood in the shadows, dressed like a demon, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Bruce, you…"

Although the distance between them was vast, something seemed to connect them at that moment.

"…I've come to save you, Robin."

Batman raised his head slightly, looking at Jason Todd, who was battered and kneeling before Red Skull on the execution platform.

"This time, I won't be too late…"

In an instant, tears streamed down Jason Todd's face. But the emotional scene didn't last long. Overcome with excitement, Red Skull began to grow more manic. He kicked Jason Todd to the ground, planting his foot on Jason's back.

"Hahaha… they've finally shown up, the Justice League!"

Red Skull's gaze darted from one figure to the next, his eyes burning with fervor.

A young man clad in red with a lightning bolt on his chest, a half-cyborg covered in metal, a brawny man wielding a trident and wearing a scale-like armor, and finally, a man clad in emerald, radiating an otherworldly glow from his hands.

Red Skull's attention ultimately landed on the three leading figures. He recognized them; they were the trio that had caused chaos in his territory recently, and their names had spread far and wide.

"Batman, Wonder Woman, and… Superman." Red Skull licked his nonexistent lips. "You've finally arrived. Honestly, I thought you'd be a bit more patient."

"Cut the nonsense, Skull," Superman said firmly. His voice was like thunder, echoing in the ears of everyone present. "Release Red Hood and end this."

"End this?"

Red Skull let out a cold laugh. He raised his hand slightly, and in the next moment, all the Hydra soldiers aimed their laser rifles at the Justice League. At the same time, under Dr. Zola's control, the automated weapons powered up, targeting the seven heroes.

"It should indeed end. But the conclusion will be you all kneeling before me."

"Is that the outcome you've already decided?" Aquaman laughed boldly. As the King of Atlantis and Lord of the Seas, he never turned down a challenge. "I hope you'll remain as optimistic when I'm severing your head."

"In my world, there used to be a group just like you. Do you know what happened to them? Look beneath your feet."

Red Skull spread his arms as if embracing the entire world.

"You're standing on their bones, and soon, you will follow in their footsteps, just like them."

"Then let's see if you've got the strength to back up your boasts."

Superman's body began to rise slowly. Without any visible assistance or energy, he simply hovered into the air. Behind him, his red cape fluttered sharply in the cold wind, producing a soft rustling sound.

With just that motion, Superman captured everyone's attention. They all wanted to know what kind of power he possessed to dare challenge the ruler of this world.

The battle was on the brink of erupting, just as the spectators had hoped. They didn't care who won or lost, nor did they concern themselves with concepts of good and evil. They only wanted to witness history.

Would the old king die and the new king rise?

Or would the dynasty continue, expanding its territory?

Today would provide the answer to all.

Superman extended his fist, and the next moment, like a missile, he shot forward, flying at incredible speed toward the execution platform. His immense power and speed created a thunderous boom in the air, repelling all incoming energy weapons and missiles with ease.

Yet, despite this scene, Red Skull showed no fear. He remained composed, his expression unchanged, as he watched Superman's unstoppable advance. His cold smile lingered.

Just as Superman was about to land a punch on Red Skull, a sudden external force intervened. A terrifying power disrupted Superman's trajectory, knocking him off course.

Superman felt an invisible energy invade his mind. The next moment, someone grabbed him, causing him to veer away. Together, they crashed into the ground beside the execution platform, creating a deep crater as they collided.
