Marvel: Son of Tomorrow

"So... I'm really the Clark Kent from the comics? I'm really a Kryptonian... I'm... not human..."

Clark looked at his hands in confusion. Yes, they were exactly the same hands as humans, with similar forehead lines, questioning, and the ability to grasp. He always thought that he was a human being, and at most... at most he had some slightly more outstanding talents.

Even at the moment when his eyes released heat vision, he always thought that he was just a special human being.

Superman on the side had a strange look on his face. Anyone who knew that he was just a cartoon character in someone else's world would feel a little uncomfortable.

Because it means that the pain and sorrow in their world, and the joy when hope comes, are actually just entertainment in the daily life of ordinary people in other worlds.

But the same problem also arises. Clark can guarantee that the child in front of him is himself. He has checked it with his x-ray vision and the child is himself, there is no doubt about it, he is a Kryptonian.

"No! I am human, I must be human!!"

At this moment, Clark was extremely excited. Everything he once believed in collapsed, his three views were destroyed, and his eyes glowed red uncontrollably. Superman's son Jonathan Jr. and Batman's son Damir Strong became nervous.

The strong man is the son of Superman, so he naturally knows how terrifying the power of their heat vision is.

As for the latter, Damian, the son of Batman, immediately thought of the fact that they were now in the Daily Planet. Once such a thermal vision erupted, the entire Daily Planet would collapse.

But someone was faster. Superman arrived in front of Clark first, and placed his large palm firmly in front of Clark's eyes, allowing the hot vision to continue shining on his palm.

He did not choose to stop Clark from venting his emotions, but chose to accept the pain that was vented out.

Because as the same person, Superman experienced the same pain when he was young when his father Jonathan told him the truth.

The only difference is that when my three views collapsed, my parents who loved me were always by my side, while the self in another world in front of me came to another world by accident.

No one understands the pain of this nuance better than Superman himself.

Clark was too small. Even for Clark, when he used his full power to unleash his heat vision, there was a time limit. The same was true for Clark. He was exhausted and stopped. At this time, Louise also returned here with a box made of special materials in her hand.

"Clark, be careful..."

Lois reminded softly, and Superman nodded. After gently opening the box, he took out a stone emitting green light with his hands, and walked in front of Clark, enduring the discomfort caused by his body.

“I wonder about that, too, but…”

As the kryptonite approached, Clark's body also reacted. The discomfort from the cellular level swept through his body. Clark, who couldn't bear it anymore, vomited out almost everything he had eaten yesterday at once.

Green Arrow, who had been watching and on guard, couldn't help but speak.

"I never knew Kryptonite could have such a profound effect on a Kryptonian."

Canary, who was standing by, rolled her eyes at her husband.

"When you were 8 years old and drank the blood of a demon, you had the same reaction, even worse than this child."

Green Arrow smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything. Instead, he went to the rooftop with a bow and arrow. There were many infected people now, and they had to be careful of the heroic infected people who might attack the Daily Planet Building.

Gradually, Clark adapted to the radiation of Krypton. After all, such a reaction was only caused by the sudden disappearance of his ability. The radiation of kryptonite itself would not cause adverse effects on the body of Kryptonians, at least green kryptonite was like this.

At this time, Superman also said helplessly.

"It turns out that even if you are not me, you are a pure Kryptonian. This is absolutely true. But as far as I know, the El family... doesn't have a brother who looks exactly like me."

Superman stood up and knew that Clark needed some time to calm down. He looked at the survivors around him and said.

"Everyone, we need to tell all the survivors in the world now that the Daily Planet has Superman, and the Daily Planet has the protection of heroes. Only by gathering all our strength can we protect humanity."

People believed in Superman's call, and Damian and little Jonathan put aside their curiosity about Clark and did what they could.

Superman slowly walked to Clark and squatted down, waiting for his younger self to calm down completely.

Gradually, Clark finally calmed down. It might be because of his highly developed brain, which allowed him to quickly figure out the current situation. It might also be because it was simply because Superman beside him always exuded a reassuring aura.

"Can you tell me your story?"

Clark turned his head and looked at Superman in front of him, but Superman just waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Look, you already know my story through the comics, but it's obvious that your life is different from mine. Maybe, in this world, I'm the one who can understand you the most..."

Superman is still the same Superman. Looking at the smiling face of the man in front of him, Clark's heart is filled with hope for some reason. This characteristic that could only be seen in a few words in the comics, when he really came face to face with Superman, he suddenly discovered that Superman really has the power to bring hope to people. This is the greatest and most powerful superpower of the greatest hero.

"My world...is actually very similar to this world..."

Clark told the story of his life so far, which was so ordinary. These stories were more about the life of their Parker family, but they were so heartwarming.

This made Superman think of his childhood life with his parents on a farm in Kansas.

From Clark's words, Superman roughly understood that it was a world very similar to his own, except that the one who picked up the Kryptonian child was not an old couple from Kansas, but a young couple traveling from New York City.

But what is the same is that they all gave this alien child a warm home.

On the side, little Jonathan and Damian, who were passing by, had changed expressions because they heard several familiar names from Clark's narration.

Finally, little Jonathan, who couldn't help himself, came over.

"Dad... Clark... No... Clark from another world? Excuse me, who is the richest man in the United States in your world?"
