American Comics: Multiverse of Madness - #502 - Chapter 499 Arthur Arkham

Chapter 499 Arthur Arkham

What is pollution.

Judging from the evidence I have so far, pollution should be a product born from the emotions and gaze of higher rules.

Pollution will reshape all creation in the multiverse and create some weird universes that are above the multiverse, which are weird upper-level narrators like the Black Label Picket.

They were born in the multiverse. They are the other side of the mirror. They are also twisted nests born from pollution and constantly breed new pollution. They represent the ominous shadow of reality.

Although the dark multiverse is essentially the opposite of the multiverse, fundamentally speaking, those dark multiverses still have not crossed the ‘mirror’. In essence, they are just a part of the multiverse.

So how could Barbatos be the source of pollution? The two sides are not at the same level at all and cannot be compared at all.

But precisely because of this, when the words came to his lips, Zhang Yi didn’t know how to explain all this to Doctor Strange and the Punisher.

Because looking at the strange Batman huddled in the corner of the cell, shrinking into a ball of shadow, a picture flashed through Zhang Yi’s mind.

Those were still part of his memories before time travel, from Batman: Mad City.

In fact, not every Batman is Bruce Wayne, and in a certain independent universe, there is indeed such a strange Batman. He was born under Gotham and came from another brother behind the city. Tan.

“Arthur Arkham.”

Zhang Yi strolled to the door of the cell and whispered the name.

When the weird Batman inside the cell heard the name, his body trembled instinctively, but then he continued to return to his dormant state, with bursts of low sounds coming from his mouth.

“Arthur Arkham” Doctor Strange repeated the name. After confirming that he had not heard of the name, he asked curiously. “Who is that?”

Hearing Doctor Strange’s question, Zhang Yi’s eyes darkened.

“That is a miserable child, and he is also the Batman of Crazy Gotham. He exudes pain and despair all the time, and turns it into pure nutrients to supply Barbatos.”

Arthur’s story is not that long. His father was originally the founder of Arkham Asylum, advocating the use of psychiatric techniques to cure criminals. But what his father did not expect was that his ambitious ideas would bring him consequences. Disaster has come.

A criminal who escaped from Arkham Asylum not only did not become a better person, but used an extremely cruel method to torture and kill his wife and daughter, leaving only his son Arthur.

Arthur, who witnessed the brutal murder of his mother and sister, seemed to have changed from that day on. He became stupid and dull, spending all day alone and often talking to himself.

As a last resort, Arthur could only be admitted to his father’s lunatic asylum for treatment, and his father was also frantically looking for a way to treat his son.

After a long time, all methods failed to cure his son, and Arthur’s father gradually became crazy. He heard the ancient legends of Gotham and knew that there was an ancient god under the city.

So he gave up scientific spiritual medicine and turned to forbidden ancient knowledge.

Arthur’s father prayed to the ancient god to heal his child, and he could accept it no matter what the conditions were. And the so-called ancient god under Gotham was none other than Barbatos, the dragon of the end.

The pain and despair in Arthur’s body aroused the interest of Barbatos. Instead of curing Arthur, Barbatos forcibly took Arthur to Gotham and created a clone to become Arthur. The appearance was given to Arthur’s father.

The real Arthur was given the power of the ancient god. In order to taste the greater despair and pain in his body, Barbatos copied the entire Gotham City under Gotham, turning it into a city of eternal reincarnation of madness. City.

There are crazy replicas of all of Batman’s enemies, as well as all the citizens of Gotham. They are all creations personally created by the ancient gods, and each one is synonymous with extreme madness.

In this way, without everyone’s knowledge, a huge replica called “Mad City” hidden under Gotham and symbolizing the dark side of Gotham was created.

Of course, there is no lack of communication between the two cities. There is also the Court of Owls in the Crazy City. The monsters who have fallen into madness and chaos also want to break free from the underground and climb out of the abyss.

They looked for various ways to come to the earthly world.

No one knows how many copies have killed the original body and blended into the upper world of Gotham. No one knows how many twisted monsters are hiding in the shadows of Gotham.

The strange Batman in front of Zhang Yi is Arthur Arkham, who was born in the city of madness. In that world, the copy of Arthur created by the ancient gods has always been there. Gotham grew up.

As a creation of the ancient gods, and also synonymous with madness and chaos, the copy of Arthur likes to wear purple clothes and use white paint on his face to apply exaggerated makeup.

And he also has a new title-Joker.

This is the origin of Arthur Arkham and the birth of this strange Batman.

Logically speaking, this guy should indeed be considered part of the Dark Multiverse. After all, he is a product created by Barbatos, the Lord of the Dark Multiverse.

But looking at this strange creature, Zhang Yi’s expression was very ugly.

It is true that Arthur comes from the Dark Multiverse, but this cannot explain why he appears in the spiritual world of the Sentinels. You must know that there is a lair of pollution, and the only things that can emerge from there are contaminated creations.

A polluted creation?

Zhang Yi’s eyelids twitched slightly, and his frown deepened.

If I remember correctly, this so-called [Batman: City of Madness] cannot be considered an official publication of DC at all, because at the beginning, this weird Cthulhu version of Batman appeared as a fan work.

Later, based on the inspiration of Batman: House of Seriousness and many horror works, this story was slowly presented to the world.

This universe is a universe independent of the DC multiverse, and it is also a universe that gives the Joker a new origin.

In a sense, this may also be a new way for pollution to spread from the inside of the mirror to the outside.

Seeing Zhang Yi’s face getting worse and worse, Doctor Strange and the Punisher looked at each other, and then Doctor Strange was the first to break the silence.

“Witch Crow, have you found some kind of clue?”

Hearing this, Zhang Yi came back to his senses. He sighed, raised his hand to rub his temples, and responded.

“Maybe, I’m not sure. I only found an upper universe in the Sentinel’s spiritual world, but I didn’t find the place where this guy came from. Maybe this thing was born from the echo of pollution.”

“Born in the echo of pollution, what do you mean, this is the pollution’s self-protection measure against your invasion, and in a certain pollution, there is also a universe belonging to it?” Doctor Strange thought for a moment and said .

“I’m not sure, but I can guarantee that this thing is just a defective copy. It is definitely not the real Arthur Arkham.” Zhang Yi said flatly.

“How do you know?” The Punisher asked curiously.

“Because the real Arthur Arkham is dead. In that universe, in my memory, this weird Batman is also dead.” Zhang Yi replied.

But there was one thing Zhang Ye didn’t say, that is, Miss Time had recorded the soul light sheet. The guy in front of him had no soul at all, and he didn’t even have the reflection of matter and energy.

In other words, this guy ‘doesn’t exist’ at all.

Although Zhang Yi and Dr. Strange can see him, touch him, and even hear his voice, in fact, he does not exist. It is like a mirror, a mirror, and a strange illusion.

His existence will not be observed by anything, and he does not exist in the concepts of space and time at all.

It can even be said that he is like a reflection in a mirror, inaccessible to others.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yi shook the thoughts out of his mind, and then said in a deep voice.

“I have to leave. Let’s put this guy’s affairs aside for now. I also need to sort out what I learned from the polluted world.”

“Wait a minute!”

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, the punisher immediately stopped him.

“We haven’t figured out anything yet. Are you ready to leave now? What will happen to this monster if you leave? There are also sentries, and the blond boy is still unconscious.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ye thought for a while and replied. “Let’s keep this weird Batman here for now. Although he is just a replica, the pollution on his body cannot be faked. He might be useful in the future. As for the Sentinel.

Let him stay here for a while. Although the pollution on his body has disappeared and the zombie virus has been cured, I am still not sure whether he is really okay. Besides, he is fainting now. Let’s wait until he wakes up. . “

“Hey, you are really good at this. You really treat this place as a prison cell, right? You throw all the damn things here. You really treat us as the warden!”

The Punisher took two steps forward in annoyance, but he was quickly stopped by Doctor Strange.

Doctor Strange looked at Zhang Yi calmly and remained silent for a long time. Finally, he raised his conceited smile again, touched his beard, and said.

“Go ahead, Wu Ya, I will take care of it here. If you need help with anything, you can come to me at any time, but I hope.

It’s best not to have any secrets between us. “

Looking at Doctor Strange, Zhang Yi nodded slowly.

“Well, don’t worry”
