The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics

Hyperion turned to find the source of the vines, discovering that they originated from the barrier that had just blocked him. These barriers looked like some kind of tree trunk, and through the hole he had just smashed, he could see the tree's rings and broken wood chips.

“Petty tricks!”

Hyperion grinned, flexing his muscles and tearing apart the vines, each as wide as a person. He then shot atomic rays again, burning the towering tree trunks to ashes.

“Burning trees is illegal, kid!”

A voice suddenly came from his ear. Hyperion turned abruptly and saw that the 'plant man' who had been standing on the ground had flown near him. Looking at the wings on his back, made of overlapping vegetation, it was obvious how he had flown up.

“Bang!”

Taking advantage of Hyperion's hesitation, Yang Le's right fist landed squarely on his face, the force of which even staggered Hyperion. Not only that, Yang Le's free left hand grew a huge purple Venus flytrap.

The Venus flytrap opened its huge mouth, swallowing the upper half of Hyperion's nearly two-meter-tall body. Sharp teeth constantly tore at Hyperion's body, but unfortunately, they didn't accomplish much.

“Shred!”

Regaining his senses, Hyperion spread his arms and forced open the Venus flytrap's flower bud. The corrosive mucus of the Venus flytrap failed to harm him, but it further stimulated his anger. He vowed to make the guy who had made him so embarrassed pay.

Unfortunately, the first thing he saw upon seeing the light of day again was not the enemy who had angered him, but several huge, strangely shaped bean pods.

“Boom!”

A deafening explosion sounded as several Peashooters fired together, and pea-sized peas, like watermelons, rained down on Hyperion.

One trick, used everywhere. Hyperion shot atomic rays, and with a slight turn of his head, the overwhelming peas turned to ashes, making Yang Le grit his teeth.

'No wonder the Beyonders poked out your eyes,' Yang Le muttered in his heart.

“Try this again!” Yang Le held his arms out, his hands turning into two hollow wooden stakes in a wriggling motion. After a brief charge, thick flames spewed out, engulfing Hyperion in the blink of an eye.

However, the seemingly powerful flames did no damage to Hyperion. Hyperion ignored the fire licking at him, charged through the flames, and threw a punch at Yang Le.

Hyperion's fist was accompanied by a hurricane, which first extinguished the spewing flames before hitting Yang Le. With a body made of Swampfire, he naturally couldn't withstand this punch. Yang Le's left shoulder, along with the wings behind him, were shattered, and without a wing, Yang Le could no longer maintain his balance and began to fall to the ground.

However, before Yang Le fell to the ground, a gust of wind lifted him up. It was Ororo; she was the only one present who could control the wind at will. After losing Yang Le's entanglement, Hyperion indeed found her not far away.

“How dare you!” Ororo's silver-white hair was blown by the strong wind, and muffled thunder rumbled in the sky. The furious Ororo decided not to hide her power any longer.

This gale, which made it difficult to move an inch, naturally attracted the attention of others on the battlefield. The Supreme Squadron was horrified by Ororo's strength, while the mutants saw the injured Yang Le.

“You 'sons of beaches'!” Gambit was furious. Among the mutants, he had the best relationship with Yang Le, and he had long regarded Yang Le as his close brother. How could he not be angry when his good brother was injured?

Gambit reached for his waist, and a short stick flashing with metallic luster appeared in his hand. After he pressed the mechanism on the short stick, the stick turned into a one-person-high staff in the blink of an eye.

“Ha!” Gambit shouted softly, injecting energy into the staff as he raised it high. Then, when the staff reached its highest point, he slammed it down hard.

As soon as the staff touched the ground, the magenta energy was all poured into the ground and rushed towards Doctor Spectrum and Arcanna in front, constantly lifting the soil along the way, as if creating a sea wave on land.

Not only that, but an even faster attack surpassed Gambit's energy blast. Cyclops adjusted the parameters of his visor with his right hand, and a beam far more powerful than before went straight to Doctor Spectrum and Arcanna.

Seeing Cyclops's fierce attack, Doctor Spectrum had no time to dodge and could only construct a shield with spectral energy as before. To be on the safe side, Arcanna also used magic to reinforce it.

The crimson laser collided with the shield, and Doctor Spectrum was secretly shocked. If Arcanna hadn't helped him reinforce it, his shield might have been broken through the moment it came into contact with the laser.

Cyclops curled his lips, revealing a disdainful smile, and increased the laser's output again. Facing the more powerful laser, he shattered the shield with overwhelming force. At the same time, Gambit's shockwave arrived.

Arcanna only had time to put a layer of defensive magic on herself before being blown into the sky by the shockwave. Doctor Spectrum didn't even have time to mobilize his energy again, and his battle suit was shattered. He fell to the ground, his life or death unknown.

“No!” Power Princess, who had just recovered from being struck by lightning, saw the scene of her companion falling. She was about to rush over to save him when she was stopped by a tower-like man.

“You're not going anywhere.” Colossus said in a deep voice. Metal once again replaced flesh. After seeing Yang Le seriously injured, even he, who did not advocate violence, was furious.

“Get out of my way!” Power Princess roared, swinging her right fist at Colossus. Although this punch was not as powerful as Hyperion's, it was still quite powerful. However, Colossus went ahead and also swung his right fist.

“Bang!”

Fist against fist, the most direct collision of power without any skill. A dull sound, like a bell, was heard, and the ground under Power Princess and Colossus cracked to varying degrees.

Surprisingly, neither of them retracted their arms after the fists collided. Instead, they continued to increase their strength, meaning another contest of strength. Power Princess gritted her teeth and trembled constantly, using all her strength. Not to mention making Colossus take half a step back, she couldn't even shake his arm.

“You've done your best, but I'm just getting started.”

Before Colossus finished speaking, his upper body had already pressed towards Power Princess. At the same time, his lower body was also moving. He strode forward, constantly pushing Power Princess back.

“Ugh!”

Power Princess finally couldn't hold on any longer and withdrew her right hand, wanting to pull away, but Colossus seized the gap in her strength. His left hand, which had been waiting for a long time, directly grabbed Power Princess's head and slammed her headfirst into the ground, ignoring her struggles.
