American Comics: The Force Awakens

On the empty roof of the building where the Dark Knight left, Carl stood quietly, his eyes unfocused and just looking into the distance distractedly, but he felt extremely clear about everything around him.

The Jedi Creed states that excessive emotional fluctuations and desires will cause Force users to fall into the dark side, leading to chaos and disorder. This is why Jedi Knights are required to be abstinent.

But it also implies that for apprentices, even without a long period of study, the dark side is a shortcut to controlling the Force: that is, strong desire will allow you to control the power from the darkness.

The chaos and disorder that result from intense desires and emotions sounds like a perfect fit for Gotham, doesn't it?

The clown gas still caused some unexpected effects. While constantly restraining himself from wanting to laugh loudly, an almost irrepressible strong impulse emerged from Carl's heart. A man who wanted to stand in the center of the stage and win everyone's attention. desire.

After all, this is also the ultimate goal of a clown, a comedian.

And almost at the same time, he also felt what the Jedi claimed was the invisible power and invisible perception that could not be expressed in words.

According to the classics, the Force comes from the life of all things in the world, and the Gotham where he is located, under the perception of the Force, is almost like the source of darkness itself.

The power of the dark side was so close that Carl could almost hear the Sith Lord's trademark laughter and whispers in the darkness.

Peace is just a lie, passion is king.

Through passion, you gain strength, through strength, you gain power, and through power, you win victory.From transcending myself in victory, the Force will finally free me.

But now, what Carl needs is not a path to victory. On the contrary, what he needs is a path to help him escape the influence of the poisonous gas.

As a comic fan of Zeng Jin, he understands that in order to fight against the clown's poison, there are not many things he can use. Apart from directly relying on willpower to fight against this method that depends on the identity card, the best thing to get is fear.

Compared with Batman, who uses his actions to bring fear to Gotham's criminals, the fear brought by the other person is more direct, and of course more deadly.

He needs to find the Scarecrow.

Trying to suppress the smile on his lips, Carl closed his eyes and sensed the information brought by the Force.Usually where the Scarecrow hides, the emotions of fear are most concentrated, and Force perception will pick up these emotions, which will reduce the time he needs to search.

Soon, he opened his eyes and took steps.Perhaps it was because the handling of the situation was coming to an end, and the sirens and ambulance calls gradually faded away, making everything around them appear dark and quiet.

Wayne Mansion, Batcave.

With the roar of the Bat engine, the Batmobile drove into the Batcave on the Bat speed bumps.

Batman jumped out of the Batmobile and turned on the Batcomputer.Although he successfully defeated the Joker again today, there are still many questions that remain unresolved.

What, why does Batman put a bat in front of all his stuff, you ask?

The answer is simple, because he is Batman!

The Joker will be sent to Arkham Asylum, Gotham's historic mental hospital that specializes in treating severely mentally ill patients.

If he can really be cured.

The composition of clown gas and the preparation of its antidote are still a difficult mystery, but now that its maker has been arrested again, re-examining clues such as his crime tools should lead to some progress.

But today besides the Joker, Batman also discovered something else worth noting.

A person who successfully escaped the clown's gas without being affected.

Was he just lucky and dodged a bullet, or was there something else?

If it wasn't just good luck, how did he do it?

In Gotham, it is not a good thing to have a person with outstanding abilities. These people with outstanding talents usually end up in a mental hospital or prison.

Maybe even Batman himself is no exception.

"Batcomputer, bring up all the files on Carl Kestis for me, his life, people close to him, anything." He ordered.

As the apparent savior and guide of Gotham, Wayne Group has all kinds of information on almost everyone with records in Gotham.Some people say that in Gotham, even your normal breathing is closely related to the work of Wayne Environmental Protection Department.

This brings great convenience to Batman's work.

As Carl's personal files continued to be retrieved?1?6, Batman's brows furrowed and the corners of his mouth curved down, showing Batman's standard expression of suspicion.Carl's file is very clear. The first 20 years of his life were driven by the Wayne Group: he was born in a Gotham orphanage and went to college with the support of the Wayne Group.His student loans will be paid off after 20 years of working.He has excellent academic performance, has no bad habits, and his classmates have a good impression of him.

"Master Bruce, in order to defeat the clown, you have not had a proper rest for two days. My personal suggestion is, why not relax temporarily and leave your work until tomorrow." Even late at night, the British butler was still dressed meticulously Appears behind Batman.His back is straight, his left hand is behind his back, and his right hand is holding a tray. On the tray is freshly brewed black tea.

"Batman never rests, Alfred." Batman replied.

"I know, I know, Batman never rests." Butler Man sighed.He leaned forward and placed the tea in front of the Batcomputer desk. "So, what's wrong with this kid? As far as I'm concerned, his resume is very clean."

"Yes, but I don't believe he can escape the Joker's gas just by luck. This city doesn't believe in luck." Batman sighed, "And he seems to want to attract my attention, and I want to find out the reason."

He turned to another page and was quickly attracted by a piece of information.

"The information shows that his mentor at Gotham University was Jonathan Crane. Do you think this could be the reason?"

"Scarecrow? But before Klein was expelled from the university for his extreme behavior, he taught many students. He was not the only one." Alfred thought for a while and replied, "Master Bruce, we can't do the same. Without the energy to reach out to every contact you've ever had with a super-criminal, Batman is only one person."

"Yes, but only temporarily, he is still worthy of attention." Batman said, "Maybe he is the breakthrough for us to figure out what the Joker's gas is."

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The taste and temperature of the black tea were perfect. The all-round butler still performed well today.

"But Batman doesn't have time to do this. Although the Joker is now captured, we still have a city full of clockwork penguins and green riddles to solve." He pondered. "And the traditional Gotham gangsters have been in recent times. There's a lot of restlessness again under Falconi and I think something else will happen soon."

"Yes, Batman may not have time, Master," Alfred said, "but Bruce Wayne does."

"Give him an internship position at Wayne Group, monitor him, and we will gain something."
