Superman

"Motherlander?"

Clark froze for a moment, feeling a little strange.

"Why is it called this?"

Luke tried to hold back his smile, seeming to think of Superman wearing the American flag and smirking at the media.

"Using the term'motherland' can make the government less vigilant. They will want to turn you into a... propaganda tool, such as selling treasury bonds, making movies, etc., and they will also be more accepting of your existence."

Clark shook his head repeatedly when he heard the big cousin say so.

He doesn't like being the focus, especially being pushed onto the stage.

That is not in line with the educational philosophy of the Kent family.

It’s not natural for Clark to make an idol debut.

"Well, I just said casually."

Luke smiled and returned to the subject.

If the plot is allowed to develop, follow the trajectory that has already been delineated.

Then his arrival is meaningless and a waste of time.

So for Luke, he is more willing to see changes.

Whether it's good or bad.

The emergence of Superman means the opening of a new era of superheroes.

He will come into contact with more key people, and his connection with the universe will deepen.

Dr. Manhattan can no longer erase his existence like deleting a file.

"I hope Jonathan won't blame me for putting you on an unknown path, Clark."

Luke rubbed the small curls of his little cousin, and this moment appeared very cleverly, neither too early nor too late.

"It's my own choice, big cousin."

Clark's eyes were firm, and he had been fed up with all the troubles caused by swallowing his breath and hiding power.

If as Luke said, he could stand up bravely and show his kindness.

Maybe everything will get better.

"Then it is decided."

Luke squeezed the can in his hand and threw it precisely into the trash can in the distance.

The latter is a bit of a lesson, but it's a bit short.

The coke can hit the edge and flew out with a "touch" sound.

"Learn to control your own power."

Luke said so.

The little cousin nodded when he faced those gangsters.

Nothing like before, completely unable to control the strength of the fist.

According to the news received by the eldest cousin, the two hapless guys are not in danger.

At most, it is only a severe concussion, an enlarged contusion and bone fracture.

This is going to be in Gotham, the bank robber is caught by Batman.

At least the bones of more than two digits were broken, and by the way, he was scared to death.

Next, Luke chatted casually and left the hospital.

Clark needs to have a frank conversation with his adoptive father Jonathan, and he is responsible for making Superman's debut plan.

Regarding public opinion, debuts, and various public relations... it is not an easy problem to solve.

It might be better to switch to the Marvel universe.

With the official status, combined with the influence of power and status, and the influence of many auras, no one can stand in front of him.

"Don't worry about the first show. There are so many mutants in the town who have been exposed to kryptonite radiation for a long time. They are excellent opponents."

Luke sat in the car, like the agent of an entertainment company, thinking carefully about how to pack his little cousin and create a good image.

...

...

The children of the Kent family have extraordinary powers, and the news spread quickly across the town.

From the beginning, Clark defeated the rumors of two gunmen.

In less than half a day, it has turned into a hordes of violent elements.

He was hit by a shotgun, and then gradually evolved into a Gatling gun.

With such exaggerated manpower and firepower, the uninformed thought the town had been subjected to a terrorist attack!

Jonathan and Martha were very distressed when they got home. Friends who usually go to church together, neighbors who are close to each other... They ask about Clark if they have anything to do.

The police in the town have also been here several times, because the surveillance camera did not know why it was malfunctioning, and they could not prove the abnormality of the high school child.

Suddenly, the peaceful life was broken.

Even when Clark was in school, people around were talking quietly and observing secretly.

The look in their eyes was strange, he could feel it.

Everything is changing in a bad direction just as the big cousin expected.

Clark was already late at night when he heard his parents mention moving.

Frankly speaking, he felt very wronged inexplicably.

Why should I be treated like this if I have done a good deed?

Clark, who was unhappy in his heart, finally understood what it was like to criticize, gossip, and slander his cousin.

He believes that only people with extremely strong hearts and extremely firm will can bear this pain and become a symbol of his father.

The tormented life lasted for a week, and the situation finally got better.

The public's attention was drawn to the superhero, and a guy named "Superman" appeared in the metropolis.

The red cloak, the strong body, the ability to fly to the sky... instantly detonated the news media.

"That's a bird? That's an airplane? That's—Superman!"

The Planet Daily first quoted this sentence and published it on the headlines.

Everyone is discussing who Superman is, where he comes from, how he can lift a runaway truck and rescue a crashed plane...

"Superman?"

Clark scratched his head. He always felt that the other person's image was very similar to the first time he saw his cousin.

But thanks to the appearance of Superman, few people in the town pay attention to the old news about high school students preventing bank robbers.

The gossip that people pass by word of mouth gradually loses credibility over time.

After all, in the increasingly exaggerated rumors, Clark became a powerful figure who singled out an army and was not afraid of rocket launchers and howitzers.

So from the initial conviction, to the suspicion at the back, to the sneer.

Regarding the "magic kid of the Kent family", this story came to an end.

"It turns out that big cousin you are the'Superman'."

Clark saw the familiar uniform and said in surprise.

He had vaguely guessed before, but he couldn't be sure.

Until I came to Luke's house in advance to receive daily training.

"No, we are all'Superman'."

Luke corrected.

He didn't mean to hide it. If it wasn't for his little cousin's life to restore peace, he wouldn't have gone to the Metropolis as a guest superhero.

"I'm only on the stage temporarily, I'll rely on you in the future, Clark."

Luke exchanged a superman suit for his little cousin from the item store, the more common one, a red cloak with a capital "S" on the chest.

In fact, he thought about using the classic dress of the red pants.

However, I can't pass the hurdle in my heart.

After all, before Clark was replaced, Luke had to wear this stuff to save people and fight crime.

What a shame!

"rely on me?"

Clark hesitated looking at the superman uniform with special material, simple and generous.

"Welcome to the Superman family, little cousin."

Luke smiled slightly. As the saying goes, the superheroes on this set have formed a family system.

For example, Gotham's Bat family is composed of Batman himself, several generations of Robin, and several generations of Batgirl.

In the Superman family, Clark and Kara, then like superboys of several generations, and the Krypton dog.

The Flash family is even larger, and it is entirely possible to form a speed team.

"From now on, you are the Superman Reserve, a superhero trainee in Metropolis."
