American Comics: I Drew Superman During the Great Depression

Chapter 237 Identity Crisis (1/2)

New York, Grand Central Station.

Colin carried his suitcase and walked through the surging crowd.

After nearly a week of cleaning, the train finally resumed service, and Colin bought a train ticket to San Francisco as soon as possible.

Perhaps because of the long-term suspension of service, there were a lot of people in the train station.

However, a large number of them still did not buy tickets. They handed their tickets to the attendant and walked into the carriage. Looking through the glass window of the train, they could see the densely packed figures standing on the freight train.

Train wandering has become a common problem that plagues railway transportation. Since the Great Depression, many unemployed people have used it as a means of making a living. They climbed on the train and got off at every new location to see if they could find a suitable job, or simply continued to wander around and even steal things.

The huge sandstorm that appeared in New York trapped them here for a long time, and many homeless people were eager to go to the next city to find opportunities to make a living.

Under Colin's gaze, several homeless people climbed onto the freight train with skillful movements, and then pulled others up.

In just a few minutes, more than a dozen people had climbed onto the freight cars, and this was just the scene on the train car opposite.

If you look along the roof, you will see curled up figures everywhere on the train.

There are even more people on the roof of the train than in the train.

Although it is not the first time to see this kind of scene, Colin is shocked every time he encounters it.

Withdrawing his eyes from the numb expressions on the faces of these homeless people, Colin came to his own car and sat down.

Accompanied by the sharp whistle of the conductor, the train started slowly.

Leaving the New York train station, the train galloped on the railway for a while but suddenly stopped. The conductor told them that there was a herd of bison in front and they needed to stop and wait.

Through the window, you can vaguely see the herds of bison in the wilderness, crossing the railway in a mighty manner.

Even Colin on the train can feel the vibration from the railway.

It seems that there will be a while to wait.

Looking at the endless black herd of buffalo, Colin sighed silently.

From New York to San Francisco, it will be a long journey.

Fortunately, he was not unprepared.

For ordinary people, in this era of underdeveloped entertainment, taking a train is a time-consuming and laborious torture.

But for Colin, it is not the case.

At least, he can travel back to the anti-world to breathe fresh air without having to trap himself in the cramped seat of the train for a long time.

[Faith (87980/100000)]

However, before closing his eyes, Colin glanced at the jumping value of [Faith] in the text and paused for a while.

Just as he took the train to San Francisco, the new issue of the Daily Courier was successfully released.

The serialization of "Superman" happened to reach the second half of Superman and Batman.

At the beginning of the story, it continued the plot of Lois being trapped by the fire in the previous issue.

Clark: "Lois?!"...

Bruce Wayne: "Oops!"

The situation outside made the two superheroes in the ship anxious, but they did not dare to reveal too much on the surface.

[By the way, the best audiobook reading at present is x-on:

After turning off the lights, the fire outside exposed the identities of the two after changing clothes, and now the two knew the identity of each other's superhero.

Bruce Wayne: "There is no time to care about these, let's deal with the problem first, I'll go save people."

Superman: "Then let me deal with the tanker."

However, as superheroes, the two knew the priorities and did not dwell on each other's problems. The two put aside the problem and rushed to the scene.

At the same time, the two had a clear division of labor. Superman solved the tanker and Batman went to save Lois.

Rushing into the raging fire, Superman casually lifted the tanker into the air, blocked the bullet hole with his fingers to put out the fire, and then opened his mouth and took a deep breath, and inhaled a lot of water vapor in the cloud.

At the same time, Batman also took action.

Louise: "Batman, why are you here?"

On the ground, Lois was surprised that it was Batman, not Superman, who came to save her.

Batman: "Superman is dealing with more important things, so let me save you."

As Batman finished speaking, Superman came down from the air holding a tanker and spit out water vapor to put out the fire.

Louise: "Why, Superman and Batman are here at the same time?!"

Looking at the two superheroes who appeared together, Lois showed a surprised expression on her face.

After saving Lois and extinguishing the fire caused by the tanker, Superman and Batman went to the scene to check, but only found a fireproof suit at the scene, and Batman made a guess.

Batman: "That person must have pretended to be a passenger and sneaked into the cruise ship to escape."

After solving the problem of the tanker, Superman and Batman discussed each other's secret identities.

Superman: "I never expected that Bruce Wayne, the rich man in Gotham City, would be Batman."

Batman: "I also never expected that Superman's true identity would be a newspaper reporter."

Batman: "Superman, we must protect our secret identities. This is the key to the activities of superheroes. Once this is leaked, it will cause huge troubles in the fight against criminals."

Superman: "I agree with that. Maybe we should catch the guy who set off the tanker together."

The two promised to keep each other's secret identities secret, and at the same time discussed how to catch the gangster.

In the end, the two decided to board the ship using the identities of Batman and Superman.

After boarding the ship and informing the captain of his intentions, the captain generously gave up his room to the two of them. ….

Superman: "Lois, why are you here?!"

When the two were wandering around the boat, they accidentally discovered that Louise was also on the boat. Louise explained that she had taken leave and wanted to take this boat for vacation.

Superman: "Isn't this ship already full? Where do you want to stay?"

Louise: "It just so happened that the fire that happened earlier scared a tourist who was originally planning to take the boat, so I stayed in. By the way, Clark also happened to be on the boat for vacation. I wanted to put Superman and Batman on the boat. Tell him the matter."

Superman: "It suddenly occurred to me that there are still things to deal with."

Batman: "Let me help you."

After hearing what Louise said, the two quickly found an excuse to rush back to the cabin. Superman couldn't help but complain during the process.

Superman: "Unexpectedly, Lois came to the ship, and now the situation became more complicated."

Batman: "Don't you think she is cute and brave? Ordinary people would not recover so quickly when encountering something like that and continue to come to the ship."

Superman: "Sometimes, I wish she wouldn't be so brave."

Batman: "This is not something you can decide."

Superman: "You know, in order to conceal Superman's identity, I..."

In the cabin, just when Superman was about to complain to Batman about the trouble caused by Lois, Lois arrived.

Lois: "Clark, you

Are you there? "

Hearing the noise coming from outside the door, Clark quickly lay down on the bed and pretended to be seasick, while Bruce, who had changed his clothes again, also pretended to take care of him.

Lois: "I didn't expect you to get seasick, Clark. Do you know what you missed? Superman and Batman are both on the ship."

Seeing this scene, Louise couldn't help but complain, and asked Clark to have a good rest before leaving the cabin.

After Louise left, the two of them were thankful to have escaped, and then discussed how to deal with it when Louise was also there.

Superman told Batman on the deck to let him lie to Lois that he had fallen in love with her, and then Lois would be distracted so that he could get rid of her, but unfortunately, Lois heard this. , so Lois wanted to teach Superman a lesson.

Lois: "Batman, I have something to talk to you about. Superman, can you deal with the waves outside? Don't let the boat keep rocking. Clark is getting seasick because of this problem."

Superman: "Leave me in."

Seeing that Lois was interested in Batman, Superman felt that this was a good plan to continue their plan, so he lifted the boat over the waves and used super clairvoyance to observe what Lois mentioned. Where the diamonds were placed in the ship.

Superman looked through the entire ship and found no diamonds, but found a man with a pistol, and then came back to tell Batman what he had discovered.

Batman: "Now Louise is in your hands. Don't let her find out the problem. I'll go see the guy with the gun."

Looking at Batman leaving and Superman staying here, Lois also started taking action of her own.

Lois: "Superman, you didn't see what Batman looked like at that time. He didn't look scared at all in the fire, and he rescued me easily. This is what a superhero should be like."….

Superman: "I have saved you no less than 100 times, why haven't I heard you praise me like this?"

While replying to Lois's words, Superman felt a little doubtful that Lois really fell in love with Batman.

On the other side, Batman went to see the suspect and after a brief conversation, he learned that the man was lying. When he came back to see Superman, he told him that the man was the criminal, but without the evidence of the diamond, he couldn't start. Superman also revealed that he could not find any trace of the diamond. At this time, Louise intervened and invited Batman to a dance held on the ship that night.

Batman: "No problem."

The colleague who agreed to Louise's invitation, Batman knew inside but wondered why she didn't invite Superman.

At the ball, Batman showed off his superb acrobatic skills, which attracted Superman and Lois' praise. Then Superman told Lois that he also wanted to show off his special skills to the audience, but Lois' performance was quite indifferent.

On the stage, Superman easily lifted a few icebergs and threw them in his hands. Batman praised him repeatedly, but Lois found it boring.

Louise: "It's the same trick again. I've seen too many of them. I'm going to go back and put on my nail polish."

At the end of the performance, Superman said to Batman with a somewhat disappointed expression.

Superman: "I have heard the meaning of Lois' words. It seems that you have won. She has already fallen in love with you."

Batman: "But I don't have any thoughts about her. Apart from asking her not to interfere with Eucalyptus' investigation, I have no other interest in her."

Batman, however, showed a calm face and revealed his thoughts. Then the two talked about the difficult situation of the case. Because they could not find the diamond, they could not catch the other party.

Superman: "As long as the ship does not dock, he can't escape."

The suspect on the other side had arranged a helicopter to pick him up. At the same time, in order to make Superman unable to get away, he actually planned to do some more damage, and for insurance, he also planned to take a hostage to threaten Superman and Batman.

Soon, Superman found Batman and told him about the failure of the turbine. He had seen a heavy rain coming. Batman thought there was something fishy and wanted to check it with Superman.

At the same time, on the deck, the prisoner tricked Lois out and threatened to let her take a helicopter with him.

The storm was coming soon, but Superman's expression was not too panic.

Superman: "Don't be nervous. Even if the storm really comes, I can lift the ship ashore."

But at this time, someone ran to tell Superman that the suspect kidnapped Lois and was going to take a helicopter away.

In this dilemma, Superman thought of a way.

Superman: "Batman, I need your help."

Batman: "You want me to do this?"

Signaling Batman to come over, Superman lightly threw him into the helicopter. Batman complained while flying in the air that he was just like an acrobat.

Clinging to the outside of the helicopter, Batman skillfully entered the helicopter. Seeing this scene, the robbers on the helicopter wanted to shoot, but were stopped. Seeing this scene, Batman subdued the two people, rescued Lois and arrested the criminals, and Batman controlled the helicopter back to the ship.

Superman: "Although the criminals have been caught, the diamonds have not been found."

Batman: "The diamonds have been found, they are hidden in the gun."

This is what Batman noticed from the action that the criminals did not shoot when they had the chance.

After handing the criminals over to the police, the two said goodbye to Lois and pretended to leave.

Later, on the way back to the cruise ship, Lois met Clark and Bruce who had regained their identities.

Lois: "Clark, how come your seasickness got better so quickly? And when Superman and Batman appeared before, why didn't I see you guys? Where were you at that time?"

Bruce Wayne: "It seems that Lois has discovered something. Our identities may be exposed!"

Clark: "Don't worry, I have a way to deal with it, but my problem is a bit troublesome."

That night, Superman brought Batman back to Gotham to show up, making people think that Batman was still in Gotham, and then took him back to the ship.

The next morning, Lois said that the radio broadcast that Batman appeared in Gotham last night, and Bruce Wayne's suspicion was cleared. Clark whispered that his identity might not be saved, but Bruce Wayne also whispered that he would help him, as long as he changed into Superman's costume when the cruise ship stopped.

The ship docked, and Lois and Clark met Superman played by Bruce Wayne at the port.

So far, the identity crisis of the two people has been successfully passed. .
