The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics

“Don't be happy too soon!”

Spider-Man shot out a web and swung past Kamala, his target being the truck Minerva was trying to protect.

Kamala quickly stretched out her limbs, turning herself into a giant, and followed after Peter. Gradually, she realized she couldn't keep up with him, so she learned from Peter and started swinging from buildings as well, except Peter relied on webs while she used her own arms.

“What is that thing?” Kamala asked.

“I don’t know what that is!” Peter replied.

“I only know we shouldn’t let them succeed.”

There's no doubting Spider-Man's chasing ability in the city. The truck had only traveled a block before Peter was about to catch up.

Peter looked at the truck, which was only one parking space away from him, and shot his next web at the truck's cargo container, then used his arm strength to pull himself over.

“You won’t get away with this!”

An angry roar caught their attention. Turning back, they saw it was indeed Minerva, who had woken up and was about to catch up to them with her wings.

“I’ll deal with her!” Kamala shouted to Peter.

Peter understood, reaching out his right hand to stick to the top of the container, then tearing at it with force. Along with a series of teeth-grinding “screech” sounds, a metal container was torn open.

Peter narrowed his eyes and immediately saw a huge green egg, looking ugly and disgusting.

Seeing the truck damaged, Minerva shrieked and increased her speed again, facing Kamala head-on.

Kamala turned her body and threw her fists at the oncoming Minerva. Despite her large size, Minerva was not slow at all. She flapped her wings, raised her flight altitude, and dodged Kamala's attack.

Seeing the attack fail, Kamala wanted to retract her fists, but Minerva wouldn't waste this good opportunity. She stretched out her claws, grabbed Kamala's fists, and swung them forcefully, causing Kamala to smash onto the road, dazed and confused.

Taking advantage of her weakness, Minerva yanked hard, pulling the still dizzy Kamala close, wanting to get rid of this annoying brat in one go.

“Clang!”

A dark iron disc struck Minerva's head from a very tricky angle. Minerva cried out in pain, covering her head and staggering back several steps.

Minerva shook her head, trying to relieve the dizziness, but before she could recover, Peter's next move was already upon her.

“Watch this for me!”

Peter swung to Kamala's side, placing the egg he was carrying on his shoulder next to Kamala. The latter had just climbed up and hadn't understood what was happening when Peter had already flown out.

Using the swing of the web, Peter joined his legs together and kicked Minerva hard in the head.

Strike the snake at its seven inches. Although he didn't know Minerva's weakness, Peter still understood the principle of deepening the damage, focusing on hitting one spot.

The huge body crashed down, and Minerva fell head over heels. Peter shot out a web again, pulling Minerva up, and then punched Minerva hard in the face again.

Another smear of crimson, and Minerva lost a few more teeth.

Minerva was now afraid. If this continued, let alone the experimental product, even she might be lost here.

In a panic, Minerva discovered the iron disc Peter had thrown over earlier at her feet. Upon closer inspection, it wasn't an iron disc at all, but a manhole cover. Looking at the manhole cover, Minerva suddenly had an idea.

She grabbed the manhole cover at her feet and threw it at the crowd not far away. If this hit accurately, there would be a bloody mess.

Peter's eyes widened, and he turned to stop the tragedy from happening, but someone was faster than him.

The extremely fast manhole cover suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if an invisible hand was controlling it.

Spider-Sense suddenly rang, but Peter felt very strange. This wasn't a crisis warning, but more like a creature receiving information through its antennae, reminding him that there were others like him around.

Peter turned his head following the reminder of Spider-Sense and saw a strangely shaped humanoid.

That humanoid had a body composed of black and yellow colors. Both shoulders extended upwards, forming a U-shape. A metal skull emitting a faint oily sheen floated in the middle, looking like a human skull, except there were yellow U-shaped antennas on the forehead. The hands were also different from ordinary people, like two large tuning forks.

And that humanoid was holding his right hand flat against the manhole cover in mid-air, it seemed he was the one who stopped it.

“Crap!” Seeing that everything was fine here, Peter suddenly remembered Minerva, and turned back to find that the other party had already spread her wings and flew into the sky, running away.

“Stop her, Frank.” Yang Le, who had transformed into Polaris, contacted Frank, who was already in position, through the communication device.

“Easy.”

Frank stood on the roof, watching Minerva in the sky.

Reassembling and transforming the gun in his hand, a rifle turned into a sniper rifle. With the enhancement brought by the Super Soldier Serum, Frank completed a series of measurements almost instantly and pulled the trigger.

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Jiu Shu Ba!

“Boom!”

This was not the sound a sniper rifle should make, it was more like a cannon. Minerva's heart tightened, followed by a burst of severe pain.

Taking advantage of the moment Minerva flapped her wings, Frank actually killed two birds with one stone, shattering both wings completely.

“Leave the rest to you.” Frank took out a cigarette and lit one for himself. His mission was complete.

Losing her wings, Minerva could only fall from the sky. Before she could hit the ground, a dark green figure crashed into her, plowing a trench in the ground.

Lizard Peter firmly controlled Minerva on the ground. The power that erupted at this moment was not something the injured Minerva could resist.

As two more figures darted out from between the high-rise buildings, George and Gwen shot out four webs from the left and right, wrapping around Minerva. Lizard Peter took the opportunity to break free, and George and Gwen became even more unscrupulous, shooting out several webs, binding Minerva into a zongzi.

“Job done.” George leaped to Gwen's side and extended his palm, wanting to high-five his daughter.

Gwen was surprised, but she still high-fived George. She probably didn't expect her dad to be so lively.

Yang Le sent the manhole cover back to its original place to prevent someone from falling in, and then walked towards Peter.

“I only recognize that Lizard Doctor among these people.” Kamala hugged the egg and leaned closer to Peter, whispering.

But then she frowned again and said, “Is that really Lizard Doctor? Why is he wearing a uniform, and also, was he originally that strong?”

When Lizard Peter was researching the serum, he added a little extra to himself, so he appeared taller than the Lizard Doctor in the main universe, looking like a dinosaur.

“Obviously, he is not the Lizard Doctor we know.” Peter said, he was also curious about this group of people who suddenly appeared.

But it doesn't matter, looking at Yang Le walking towards him, Peter knew he would soon know the answer.
