Chapter 769
Great Miracle and Jupiter Jack are second-tier superheroes under Vought who are infinitely close to the first tier.
The only reason they are prevented from becoming first-tier is that their abilities partially overlap with Homelander’s.
What kind of personality does Homelander have?
Unique, supreme!
Naturally, it’s impossible for him to allow people with the same abilities as himself to become the new favorites supported by the company, focused on by the media, and chased by the public!
Letting them become first-tier isn't that stealing his popularity!
First, let’s talk about Great Miracle. The name is very magnificent and high-end, but the only ability is flight.
He can fly around the Earth in outer space at several times the speed of sound.
Like other superheroes at Vought, Great Miracle is also a piece of scum.
His biggest hobby is to get laundry detergent into his body through an enema, and then find female fans who admire him to play "a row of egrets flying into the blue sky."
As everyone knows, ordinary people cannot survive in high-altitude and outer space environments, so every time it ends, only he comes back alone.
Uh, it actually makes the cleaners responsible for the aftermath at Vought much easier.
Then there’s Jupiter Jack. This guy is a replica of Martian Manhunter next door. Not only is the styling similar, but he also looks very similar...
Earth-yellow skin, alien appearance—Vought created a persona for him as an alien from Jupiter.
He can fly and can be invulnerable for a short time.
In the comics, there is no Translucent among the members of the Seven, but Jupiter Jack.
There are many similar differences.
For example, Stormfront is actually a member of the Payback in the comics.
Also members of Payback are the replica Hawkeye and Green Arrow’s Eagle Archer.
And Gunpowder in Payback belongs to a group that is a replica of the Teen Titans—the Teenage Dynasty.
A-Train also originally belonged to this group, and later defeated his senior who also had super speed, which is how he joined the Seven.
Also in the Teenage Dynasty is Webweaver. By the way, Webweaver’s prototype is X-23.
Starlight, before she replaced Lamplighter to join the Seven, was a member of the Christian conservative group Young Americans for Liberty.
This group is a replica of Young Justice, which is considered relatively normal among many hero groups. Their attitude is relatively conservative, and they often promote how wonderful Christianity is.
In addition, there are the Fantastic Four replica Fantastic Die-Hard and the X-Men replica G-Men.
Hughie once joined one of the six branches of the G-Men, G-Team, as an undercover agent.
By the way, Payback is a replica of the Avengers.
As for their respective prototypes, Soldier Boy goes without saying; Stormfront’s prototype is Captain Marvel; Crimson Countess—just by the word "Crimson," you can judge it, Scarlet Witch, right!
Just imagine.
Captain Marvel is Captain America’s hookup buddy, Captain America is Scarlet Witch’s boyfriend, and also Superman’s father, and then Captain Marvel started dating Superman...
It’s really a mess!
But the most miserable one is Scarlet Witch.
Not only did she kill her boyfriend Captain America with her teammates, but in the end, her popularity declined, and as time passed, she had to perform in other people’s theme parks and became a private streamer who couldn't face anyone.
Since we’ve talked about "superheroes," let’s say a few more words about The Boys.
Why did Su Quan say that Billy and Homelander are actually the same kind of people?
Because this guy is even more excessive in the comics than in the TV series.
Several members of The Boys: Marvin was killed by him, and Frenchie and Kimiko were blown up by him together.
Finally, Billy obtained a weapon that could kill everyone who contained Compound V in their bodies.
Hughie went to stop him, and the two started the final battle.
Billy’s spine was broken, and he was killed by Hughie with a metal nail.
At the end of the story, Hughie, the only survivor of The Boys, reunited with Starlight.
Must say, Hughie is the real protagonist!
A girlfriend died at the beginning, and another girlfriend at the end.
And unlike in the TV series, in the comics, the one Hughie killed wasn't Translucent, but A-Train.
That is to say, Hughie avenged his girlfriend.
Back to the point.
Back to the present, Ashley Barrett contacted Great Miracle and Jupiter Jack.
Jupiter Jack was further away and was currently on a mission, so he had to give up.
Great Miracle came very quickly. After Ashley Barrett’s call, within two minutes, he appeared before Madelyn, ready to go.
Looking at Great Miracle, who was wearing a sky-blue tight-fitting uniform with a dark blue cape, Madelyn felt a little hesitant.
Besides flying fast, Great Miracle’s fighting ability and defensive ability are not very good, and looking at him, he was probably high before coming here...
If he can’t successfully resolve the hijacking incident, a good thing might turn into a bad thing.
Madelyn recalled other superheroes who could fly...
Prince Nubia, Thunder Queen, etc., all seem inappropriate, and there is no absolute certainty.
"Damn Homelander, what kind of madness are you having!"
Madelyn cursed secretly. Time waits for no one, so she could only treat a dead horse as a living horse and let Great Miracle go.
"A-Train! You act with Great Miracle. No matter what, you must do it beautifully, understand?"
Madelyn pointed at A-Train.
Great Miracle can fly, and A-Train runs fast. As long as Great Miracle successfully sends A-Train onto the plane, with A-Train’s speed, he can easily subdue the three hijackers holding hostages.
"Understand!"
A-Train was eager to try. In the past, such good things to show off and increase popularity wouldn't be his turn.
"Boom!"
Great Miracle flew away from the conference room with A-Train.
There was nothing left for others to do. The Deep, Black Noir, and Starlight also stood up and left.
Only Madelyn, Queen Maeve, and Ashley Barrett were left in the conference room.
"Bang!"
The moment the door closed, Madelyn asked Queen Maeve angrily: "What’s going on with Homelander? Even if he’s in a hurry to find his dad, he can’t just not perform such an important mission, right?"
Queen Maeve curled her lips with a smile: "He’s not not performing it, but he can’t perform it."
Can’t perform it?
Madelyn asked in confusion: "Did I miss something?"
Queen Maeve gloated: "Yes, you missed a miracle!"
