I want to have a date with Superman

Before leaving Metropolis, Harley went to FBI headquarters to review all secret files related to Watchmen.

"It's long past time for us to retire and retire. Why are you still paying attention to us?" Laurie sighed and moved a metal box the size of a suitcase to her.

After opening it, there were dozens of video tapes, more than a hundred documents, several photos and newspapers.

"Let's get to know each other, so as not to encounter another Captain Metropolis who fakes his own death in a few days."

Harley picked up the videotape labeled Captain Metropolis and inserted it into the VCR.

"He is really dead. The Hooded Judge is very cautious and has never revealed his identity to the outside world. Nelson (Captain of the Metropolis) is a soldier and has been recorded in government files from the beginning——"

"Oh my God!" Harley shouted with eyes wide open.

After a few seconds of snowflakes on the screen, a very impactful picture suddenly popped up on the TV.

A real punch.

That's right, it's the Hooded Judge!

There was a black cloth bag around his neck with only the eye sockets exposed, and a wrist-thick hemp rope noose hung around his neck.

Harry didn't recognize the young man Bai Zhanji, but he recognized him at a glance.

Because he's wearing a Captain Met uniform.

What especially makes Harley want to complain is that the overall uniform of Captain Metropolis is red, while the uniform of Captain America from Marvel next door is mainly blue. Other than that, the two uniforms are very similar in style.

"Shit, what are they two doing?" Harley yelled.

"Can't you see?" Laurie said with a wooden face.

"I know them - but why are they wearing uniforms and making short videos?"

The camera was almost pointed at the face, and there were no pinhole cameras in those days.

Apparently, they took the video themselves.

Shit, it's a shame they figured it out and Captain Met was happy to cooperate. "

She thought of a video she saw during the Floyd affirmative action in 2020. The black man stretched out his shoes, and white women knelt in front of him one after another, and the most mouth licked.

The Met captain also seems to be an extreme leftist.

Or was he just conquered by the hooded judge who looked like a big black bull?

"No matter how they are privately, they are the heroes of that era. And as the Hooded Judge said, whether it is the militia or the Watch, every member is a human being.

You are so insidious and cunning that you even robbed Joan of her strength, and you turned your back and became ruthless, forcing Werther to hand over the Kung Fu secret book. Don’t we also recognize you as a qualified Watcher? "Laurie said.

"Well, I'm not sure now whether the Watchers are heroes anymore." Harley sighed.

Fast forwarding to the end of the two fierce men's short movies, she changed to another box.

Well, fast forward not to see the ending, but to listen to the conversation between the two.

Communication in private situations can reveal more secrets.

For example, the Hooded Judge is getting divorced.

For example, the Hooded Judge was dissatisfied with the militia's indifference to black victims.

for example

Well, my eyes were blinded and I only heard trivial things.

Harry rubbed his face and said in embarrassment: "Fortunately, the cameras in the 1930s and 1940s had low pixels and distorted the sound. I switched to high-definition——"

"I hate that it's not high-definition." Laurie licked his lips, looking unsatisfied.

Harley was dumbfounded.

The second box.

But this time the male protagonist was changed, it was no longer the hooded judge, but another middle-aged white man.

"Who is he? It doesn't look like a hundred dollar bill. Could it be the Mothman?" Harley asked doubtfully.

Dachao is also a handsome guy with blond hair and blue eyes, but the man on TV has black hair.

"It's Hoover, the most famous director of the FBI."

"Shit," Harley said incredulously.

"See for yourself, the answer is in the document." Laurie pointed to the box.

Harley simply turned off the video recorder and started looking at the text and photos.

Seeing her grinning, her outlook on life was shattered.

Video tapes are just child's play.

The content recorded in the document is even more exciting.

But the main reason is political.

Captain Metropolitan hopes that by becoming friendly with Hoover, he will improve the social and political environment of the militia.

Look what Laurie did to Mr. Shadow back then.

As long as the FBI gets serious, no one in the "militia" who are all mortals can escape.

This is completely different from the Justice League and the Avengers.

Zhenglian and Fulian are a large group of superpowers who are not afraid of the power of the country at all.

But the strongest among the militia may not be as good as Hawkeye and Black Widow.

Most of them are ordinary people relying on their blood and courage.

Can't wave.

In the end, Captain Met died at the hands of Hoover because of this tape.

Well, the tape was secretly filmed by the Mets captain to blackmail Hoover.

Apparently Captain Metropolis died in a car accident, but in fact the car accident was arranged by the FBI director.

Captain Metropolis’ bad thing is actually child’s play.

It pales in comparison to the comedian's archives.

The Comedian's file is a palm thick, more than 99% of it, recording the dirty work he did for the US government.

Any American who sees that file must, like Judge Hood and Rorschach, firmly recognize the Comedian’s identity as a patriot.

The Comedian killed many people, but he was not a cold-blooded butcher.

Unlike the Pharaoh who had no feeling at all when he killed someone, the comedian often fell into mental torture that violated morality, conscience and humanity because of the killings he committed during his mission.

In fact, he suffered from mental illness as a result and often needed to see a psychiatrist and take medication every day.

Harley only briefly skimmed over the story of the Comedian who single-handedly dealt with South American political leaders who opposed the United States, and felt nothing about it.

She was only attracted by three other major events that he had participated in: First, he had a very close relationship with the Kennedy family, and Daken was as close to him as a good buddy. At the request of Daken's wife, the president's wife, the comedian killed Daken's lover, Monroe.

Well, that's the world-famous sexy actress, Marilyn Monroe.

It was the comedian who sneaked into Monroe's bedroom, injected her with an overdose of sleeping pills, and took away the diary that recorded the secrets of the Kennedy brothers.

The second incident is related to the death of Daken.

The Comedian is a staunch supporter of President Daken, who is also the biggest supporter of Watchmen.

JFK was pretty much a Watchman without a uniform and without officially joining the Watch.

In the 1940s and 1950s, the captain of the Mets still had to rely on his butt and butt to protect his teammates. During the Kennedy era and the 1960s, the watchmen received 100% official support.

Not only were there no spies or police officers to trouble the Watchmen, Kennedy also took the initiative to legislate for the Watchmen, giving them the law enforcement power to conceal their identities.

The Keene Act, which requires drag heroes to register with relevant authorities, came from Nixon.

Kennedy and Nixon had completely opposite views. He advocated that cross-dressing heroes should cover their faces and conceal their identities to protect themselves. At the same time, the government should also trust those heroes and hand over law enforcement and trial rights to cross-dressing heroes.

Let Dr. Manhattan join the militia and reorganize the militia into the 'Watchmen', with President Daken behind him.

Daken was assassinated, Hoover did it.

Hoover first used a mission to assassinate an anti-American leader abroad to transfer the comedian, and then arranged for someone to get rid of Daken.

In less than ten years, the comedian avenged his good friend Daken.

The reason why the comedian had to wait several years, or in 1972, before assassinating Hoover was also related to the political environment at that time.

In fact, it is also the third major event about the Comedian - the Comedian helped Nixon kill his rival Ken Xiao.

Aren’t Xiaoken and Xiaojiang good buddies?

Yes, they are good brothers too.

The comedian was even Ken's campaign guarantor, using his identity as a cross-dressing hero to draw votes for Ken's platform.

In public opinion polls, Ken Jr. is doing far better than Nixon.

But during the party's primary election, Ken Xiao did two things that made the comedian very unhappy: First, Ken Xiao made a public and sharp attack on the United States' Vietnam policy.

The comedian was in Vietnam at the time.

He was the only Watchman who actively responded to the country's call and went to fight in the Vietnam War (Manhattan was sent there, not on his own initiative).

When news of the difficulties encountered by the US military in Vietnam spread back to China, the comedian made up his mind: the United States must not lose!

In order to help his motherland win the war, he participated in the most dangerous raid missions. He survived countless times and had his hands stained with blood countless times. Harley saw more than one photo of a comedian massacring a village with a flamethrower.

Ken Jr. told the comedian that when he is elected, he will withdraw troops from Vietnam and publicly admit to the international community the failures and crimes of the United States.

He asked the comedian to be a 'tainted witness'.

Xiaojiang participated in many massacres and purges targeting the Yue Gong base areas. In short, it was exactly the same as what the Japanese did when they entered the village.

There is no doubt that Xiao Ken is asking the comedian to sacrifice himself to fulfill him.

If the comedian revealed the bad things he did in Vietnam, he would be doomed.

Not to mention a cross-dressing hero, a comedian can't even be a human being.

Xiao Ken said: Don't worry, when I become president, I will give you a pardon.

The comedian agreed with a smile and made a solemn promise to his good friend: I swear I will protect you and prevent any enemy bullets from touching you.

Turning around, he killed Xiao Ken with his own hands.

What does the comedian Ben Xiaoken have to do with Hoover and Nixon?

The Comedian first secretly joined an old nanny who had exactly the same political views as his own - in order to win the war, the old nanny even sent Dr. Manhattan to Vietnam - and then Hoover planned for the old nigger and arranged for an assassin to enter Ken Jr.'s speech party, creating chaos. In the movie, the comedian killed Xiao Ken who was being protected behind him, creating the illusion that Xiao Ken was killed by an assassin.

Big Ken died in an assassination. Of course Little Ken took strict precautions. Ordinary means could not kill him.

The comedian is too capable of doing dirty work.

Nixon was originally wary of him, but the American president had too much dirty work to do, and in the next few years he had to rely on comedians like Daken.

After becoming Lao Ni's favorite and important minister, Xiaojiang could kill Lao Hu without any trouble.

Lao Ni tacitly allowed the comedian to kill Lao Hu, and Lao Hu's younger brother also planned to take revenge - the Watergate incident.

As a result, the comedian stepped in and directly turned a big event that should have shocked the world into a trivial matter - a certain celebrity committed suicide by a familiar method, just like Monroe and countless anti-American foreign leaders.

"Dark, too dark, and too realistic! It doesn't have the fairy tale color that a superhero should have at all."

"Reality is not a fairy tale." Laurie sighed.

Harley threw away the folder and said in a complicated tone: "But your dad is really awesome. The president and his courtiers are like waves on the seaside, ups and downs, coming and going, but he is the only one who always stands proudly on the beach."

The Comedian died unexpectedly, but he did not die in a political struggle. Instead, he was killed by his teammate Pharaoh in a luxury apartment after retirement.

He died by fate.

In his early years, the Comedian tricked a generation of Night Owls into killing his teammate "The Hooded Judge", but he also died at the hands of his teammates in the end.

Killing teammates seems to have become a tradition among the Watchmen.

No, the new captain Harley has killed Dr. Manhattan, who killed Rorschach, and also killed the Pharaoh who killed the Comedian.

The dark cycle of cause and effect.
