My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

"Why did you suddenly go to Africa?"

Harper asked a little puzzled.

On the window sill illuminated by the sun, her youthful figure is reflected.

Harper, who was holding a pen, asked Wei Chen who was sitting on the sofa reading a book while writing on the paper.

When she creates, she doesn't like to use a typewriter or a computer.

I prefer to use pen and paper instead.

She is fascinated by the touch of the pen and the rustling sound of writing on the paper, and she likes this feeling very much.

"There's one thing to do, but I'll be right back, don't worry."

Wei Chen put down the book and explained solemnly.

"Uh-huh, you're always so busy that you don't even go to Leslie's parent meeting."

The corners of Harper's mouth pouted slightly, pretending to be angry, but the smile on his brows still betrayed her.

"Parents meeting? When did Leslie go to school?"

Wei Chen looked shocked.

"This PTA is not that PTA," Harper put down his pen and said with a smile, "it's Leslie's induction PTA. Aren't you happy that Leslie made it to the Super Seven?"

"Forehead......"

Wei Chen was a little speechless.

Unexpectedly, Harper would occasionally make a fool of himself, "I'm happy, of course I'm happy."

A smile quickly formed on his face.

Harper felt that Wei Chen's smile was a little fake, "What, the smile is not sincere at all. Maybe you forget about it!"

"Of course not, Leslie said in my ear every day, eight hundred times if not one thousand, even if I forget my birthday, I will never forget this day. It's just..."

Wei Chen sighed, stood up from the sofa, and looked at the sunlight accumulated outside the window, "I just don't know if I did the right thing, she is still a young girl after all, and I'm really afraid that she won't be able to bear it in that dangerous circle." .”

"You're such a caring parent, even though you don't have kids yet."

Harper found Wei Chen's idea very interesting.

"However, I don't think even parents will keep their children around all the time. And, you have been staying with Leslie at the stage of a seven or eight-year-old girl, but haven't you noticed? She has grown a lot."

"oh?"

Wei Chen turned his head suspiciously, facing Harper, "Is there?"

"Of course, she's grown a lot since you talked to her that night. Women are more careful than men in this regard."

"Maybe!"

Wei Chen sighed, "That's why I don't want to go to Walter Company to attend the parent-teacher meeting. Forget it, let's not mention this, how about my autobiography you wrote?"

"Come on, I'm writing Batman's story, not your autobiography."

Harper, who hated writing autobiographies for others the most, immediately lit up his paws at Wei Chen like an angry kitten when he heard Wei Chen mention the word "autobiography".

"Haha, that's me, at least this world is related to me. Come, let me see."

Regardless of Harper's agreement or not, Wei Chen quickly picked up the manuscript on the table and read it quickly.

Harper stared at Wei Chen with excited and apprehensive eyes, eager to hear Wei Chen's evaluation, but afraid that he would say something bad.

That mood is like a middle school student who can't wait for the teacher to review the composition.

"Uh-huh......"

After reading a few pages, Wei Chen nodded pretendingly, "Very good, at least it's better than mine. It's very similar to the superhero works currently on the market. Superheroes fight villains, sometimes with little emotional twists and turns, sometimes Interact with friendly townspeople and sometimes accidentally save the world."

"This kind of superhero stories are popular in the market now!"

Harper puffed up his mouth, feeling that Wei Chen was deliberately picking on him.

"It must be good?"

Wei Chen sighed, feeling that Harper still didn't have a deep understanding of what "dark realistic style" is.

But it’s no wonder that in this world, because of the birth of Walt’s superhero, the American superhero publishing industry, whether it’s comics, novels, or movies, has always followed a creative model.

That is the setting of "people love superheroes"!

No matter what kind of literary and artistic works are basically inseparable from this theme.

This may have something to do with the superhero monopoly of Watt Company. After all, on the otherworldly earth, people can use their ink and imagination to create fictional superheroes, endowing them with various souls and abilities, whether they are evil or good. .

But in this world, superheroes are everywhere, and they have become a part of people's real life, so they are not interested in fictional superheroes, only like those superheroes that really exist.

Even those superhero stories sound ridiculously fake.

The consequence of this is that no one dares to reconstruct and analyze the superheroes of Water Company, and endow them with different personalities. All superhero personalities are stereotyped, great and patriotic.

That's why superhero literary works are so monotonous.

Wei Chen wants the Batman story created by Harper to be his own world, such as "The Dark Knight Returns" created by Alan Moore.

Dark, realistic, crazy and thought-provoking.

"Harper, you have to know that the soul you endowed to Bruce Wayne should be dark, heavy and lonely. For example, Queen Maeve, you like her, and you want to be like her. For example, Starlight, you envy him, you Want to be her. But for Bruce Wayne, you adore him, but you definitely don't want to be like him."

"He is not a hero in the traditional sense, he should be an anti-hero."

"Antihero?"

"It's just an imperfect hero, very imperfect. In a certain situation, he has many shortcomings of the villain, but he has a certain heroism or a certain heroism."

Wei Chen found it a bit difficult to explain to Harper, "The language is a little poor. Why don't I write a story, a story about the Joker and Batman. This story is very interesting. Batman and the Joker have always been one and two sides."

Harper tilted his head, a little confused, "Wait, of course I understand what you said. The creation of literary and artistic works needs to shape various characters, endow them with complex personalities, and put them in the choice of morality or fate. Trigger violent conflicts or conflicts of human nature. But..."

Harper paused, "This is a superhero work, and what people expect from them is a noble character. Maybe readers won't buy it if you create a so-called anti-hero. After all, no one has ever done this before."

"No! I think I can give it a try."

Wei Chen shook his head. He felt that the people in all the worlds basically had the same thinking, that is, they hated the same.

He picked up the pen and wrote the first paragraph on the paper:

"Why so"
