The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 305: Highway Observations
The breeze blew on Yang Le's face, and at the same time, a special smell was carried into his nose. It was the smell of asphalt road burned by the sun and a faint smell of gasoline.

The surrounding scenery was constantly left behind by Yang Le. Although it was called a small broken car, its performance was not comparable to that of ordinary vehicles. If this steel behemoth fully unleashed its performance, except for the speedsters, no one running on the ground could be stronger than it.

Watching the scenery flash by beside you is one of the characteristics of America, and this is probably why road movies were born.

Retract your gaze. Although you cannot see other vehicles on the road, as a driver you should still look forward most of the time.

He glanced at the paper map taped to the passenger seat, which marked his destination - Star City, which was also the territory of Green Arrow.

If you are really traveling, and your starting point is Central City in Missouri, choosing Star City in California, which is about 3,000 kilometers away, is not a good choice in any way.

Plan your route and then travel from near to far, saving money and time. This is the plan a normal person should make.

Thinking about it this way, Qishi City, which is often tied to the central city and is not far away, is Yang Le’s best choice.

But obviously, Yang Le is not a normal person. The main reason why he made this decision is because he wants to meet Green Arrow, the local tyrant in Star City.

Before knowing Green Arrow, Yang Le just thought of him as a second- or third-tier superhero based on Batman. There was no way around it because the two characters had too many similarities.

A billionaire-level rich second-generation, his parents died when he was young. After training, he became a superhero who fights crime. He has no super powers, and even his equipment is surprisingly the same.

Batman has the Batcave, Batmobile and Batplane, Green Arrow has the Arrowcave, Arrowmobile and Arrowplane, and even the format of their real names is the same, Bruce Wayne and Oliver Queen.

My goodness, if both of them were not from the same comic company, Yang Le would have thought that Green Arrow was a copycat character from some unknown comic company.

Because of the similarities between the two, Yang Le didn't like Green Arrow at first, thinking that the character had no core of its own and was just a copy-and-paste character.

It was not until the emergence of an American TV series that Yang Le changed his mind. That was "Arrow" broadcast in 2012. This long-running American superhero TV series broke Yang Le's inherent impression with its super high quality, allowing Yang Le to finally put aside his prejudice and truly understand this superhero.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Once you understand, you will be shocked. Yang Le finally knows the biggest difference between Green Arrow and Batman. That is, this superhero from America, who has been living a life of debauchery and influenced by capital since childhood, is actually a staunch Marxist.

Now he had to like Green Arrow. Just based on this point, Yang Le wanted to pay a visit to this left-wing sharp arrow. After all, he had not had any chance to talk to him in the previous Justice League meetings.

Letting go of the steering wheel, Yang Le removed the map that was taped to the passenger seat, ignored the moving RV, and walked towards the living area at the back.

"There are more than 2,000 kilometers left. Come on, little rickety car." Yang Le said to the empty cockpit. The steering wheel he was holding suddenly changed its appearance and turned into a black gel-like object covered with white circuits. It was the split body of the shapeshifter.

Yang Le believed that a truly good car must possess its own soul, what modern people call a machine soul. To this end, Yang Le transformed into a shapeshifter, creating a split body and giving it full control of the entire car. Gravanik's shapeshifting split body was far more powerful than typical artificial intelligence. Most importantly, the split body could also perform maintenance on its own. While typical artificial intelligence could only tell you what was broken, the split body could fix it all on its own.

Even in an emergency, the split body can turn the broken car into a weapon of war, but the prerequisite is to input the weapon blueprint first.

"Got it, sir." A reply composed of several voices came from the car radio, which made Yang Le feel helpless. It's not that he didn't install a language module in the broken car, but the split body just liked to respond to him with various broadcasts on the radio.

Yang Le didn't care, but opened the refrigerator and took out a can of ice cola. After opening it, he took a sip. After careful tuning by a professional and two scientists, and the real-time control of the split body, the stability of the little car is first-class. Even when driving on a ground with uneven terrain, there will not be a bump, let alone an asphalt road.

However, there are always exceptions.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang, bringing with it a huge impact force, which carried sand and gravel towards the broken car. Fortunately, the window of the broken car was closed in time, otherwise Yang Le, who was still drinking Coke, would definitely have drunk a lot of sand.

But the sudden explosion also scared Yang Le, causing him to choke on the Coke. Anyone who has ever drunk Coke knows how painful it is to choke on a carbonated drink.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Yang Le took the towel handed to him by the built-in mechanical arm of the broken car and painfully wiped away the mixed liquid flowing out of his mouth and nose.

"FK!" Yang Le cursed, staring at the screen that Xiaopoche had prepared long ago with wide eyes. He wanted to see who had made him so embarrassed.

The screen is connected to the super camera invented by Xiao Qibing, which can penetrate the sand and dust so that Yang Le can see clearly the culprit of all this.

"boom!"

There was another loud bang, and the dust in the sky was blown away by the strong wind, which meant that Yang Le's "HD camera" was no longer useful. But Yang Le refused to use it. With the mentality of making dumplings out of jealousy, he could clearly understand the situation by looking out the window, but he had to look at the screen of the broken car, which showed his stubbornness.

A burly figure dressed in red and wearing a white cloak appeared on the screen. When he turned around and revealed a huge lightning logo on his chest, his identity was self-evident. It was Shazam!
"boom!"

A dull sound was heard, and a man in black, whose figure was as big as Shazam and even had more momentum than the former, punched Shazam. The huge force collided, and even the air made a teeth-grinding sound.

"Do you always only have these few moves?" Shazam showed a naughty expression that was inconsistent with his appearance. The lethality of this expression on a strong man was unimaginable, but his opponent was not affected at all, as if he had gotten used to it.
