The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 1417

"Is this the guy named Disad?"

Batwoman leaned closer for a better look, frowning as she said, "He seems to be carrying something? By the way, how did he end up on Earth?"

Unlike other members of the Dark Elite, Steppenwolf, Kalibak, and Disad have left behind far more information and clear images because they have all actually caused trouble on Earth.

Therefore, even a newcomer like Barbara could recognize Dessard at first glance, let alone Kid Flash and Robin.

"That's what I wanted to ask too."

Lightning Boy spoke softly, which was quite different from his usual carefree style. He must have been hiding in the shadows to avoid attracting Desard's attention.

“Robin, although I really don’t want to guess in that direction, normally Desad should be fighting the Justice League on Apokolips, so his appearance on Earth at this time could mean…”

“I know what you’re trying to say,” Robin interrupted Kid Flash, then said firmly.

"But I want to tell you that your guess is wrong. If the Justice League fails, then what we will be facing is not a sneaky Desad, but an overwhelming army of Apokolips."

"Although I don't know what Desad is doing, I know that the Justice League has not failed yet."

Robin had no evidence; he was merely making reasonable inferences based on the available information. However, it must be said that his inferences were indeed plausible.

"Hearing you say that makes me feel much better," Kid Flash said with a sigh of relief. "So, what's next?"

“Of course, we’ll catch that guy, Desard.” Robin didn’t hesitate at all. “Whatever that guy wants to do, it’s definitely not going to be anything good for Earth. In short, it’s never wrong to catch him and beat him up first.”

“That’s what I think too,” Lightning Boy replied with a smile.

...

Disad carefully buried the hell spores in the soil, covering them with only a thin layer of soil to save time.

After all, the Hellspore is extremely stable, and Earthlings have no way of deciphering it with their current level of technology.

Normally, all Desad needs to do is drop the Hell Spores at the target location. Even if some ignorant Earthlings pick them up, it doesn't matter, as a single Hell Spore can blow up a city.

As long as the error isn't too great and the two Hellspores aren't placed too close together, thus wasting their destructive power, it's fine. However, Dessaad is used to being cautious and doesn't want to offend Darkseid over such a small matter, so he'll just have to put in a little more effort.

Disad wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a sense of being a tiger fallen into a pit. In the past, these tasks would never have been difficult for him; they were all left to the Parademons.

However, the entire Parademon production chain has now been completely disrupted, and the manual labor he used to look down on now has to be done by him.

"Those damned Earthlings!"

Desad cursed viciously, believing it was all because those vicious Earthlings had used disgusting virus tactics; otherwise, the Parademons army of Apokolips would have annihilated them all long ago.

The hypocritical Disad completely ignored how he had tortured the creatures of the planets conquered by Apokolips. The wicked, by nature, never see themselves as wrong; they only see themselves as losers. Disad had already planned to feign innocence towards the Earthlings, and then, when they returned, to unleash the most horrific tortures upon all Earth's creatures.

The thought of that symphony woven from screams and wails made Desad feel like he was floating on air, and his broken and ugly face became even more unbearable to look at.

"Oh, buddy, you should get plastic surgery."

While Disad was still lost in his reverie, a sudden voice shattered his daydream, and before he could even react, a fist was already pressing against his stomach.

"Ouch!"

Disad felt his stomach churning. You should know that the cloak he was wearing was not a rag, but a high-tech product from Apokolips, and also a kind of armor.

But this punch seemed to ignore the armor, making him feel the pain of being beaten. Without thinking, Disad immediately activated the Mother Box and opened the sonic boom channel.

"Hmph! I want to escape!"

Lightning Boy was not going to give up on speed. Without even a moment's rest, he accelerated as he ran, turning into a streak of light and managing to pull Desad out before he was dragged away by the sonic boom.

The Lightning Boy grabbed Dessard's cloak and dragged him along at breakneck speed. By the time the latter came to his senses, they had already left the Irish wilderness and arrived in the desert covered with yellow sand.

Like throwing away trash, Lightning Boy casually tossed Desad to the ground. The latter rolled a few times on the ground, and before it could even look up, it found itself shrouded in shadow.

Desad looked up and saw a group of young Earthlings dressed in strange costumes similar to those of the Justice League. Each of them stared at him with a very serious expression, and some of them were holding weapons and pointing them at him.

"Don't move." Artemis drew back the bowstring, and an arrow with a constantly spinning tip was aimed at Desard.

"If I see you, even if you only twitch a finger, my arrow will pierce your body instantly. Believe me, I mean what I say."

This is Green Arrow's latest armor-piercing arrow, capable of piercing even a tank, let alone flesh. However, considering that Desad is a new god, using this on him isn't an overreaction.

Faced with such backwardness and not being a divine weapon, Desad was not afraid. What really made him afraid to move was the guy who had just grabbed him.

That level of speed is something few of the New Gods can achieve, and he just glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and saw that the other party seemed to be handling it with ease, clearly not using their full strength.

Moreover, Desad was no country bumpkin; his sharp eyes spotted that there were many powerful super-races present, including Kryptonians and Martians.

"Apokolips, the Dark Elite under Darkseid, right?"

Robin stepped forward and stood in front of Desard, looking down at him with a blank expression as he questioned him.

"Now, tell me exactly why you came to Earth. Remember, don't try to fool me with lies. The guy next to me can tell the truth from the lies. If you upset him, you'll be in danger."
