Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

Darkseid had no choice but to act, grabbing Harley's neck with his large hand just before her toes touched him.

They lifted the woman in the gorgeous wedding dress into the air.

Harley's feet dangled in the air, her hands gripping Darkseid's thick fingers tightly, trying to pry them open even a crack, but it was all in vain.

The increasingly severe feeling of suffocation caused her face to flush red, then turn bluish-purple.

Even so, there was no pleading in her eyes. She opened her mouth and spat at Darkseid's indifferent face.

Spit landed on Darkseid's chin and slowly slid down.

"Let her go!!"

Bruce Wayne leaped from the high-rise building, his glider unfurling in mid-air. He hurled six high-explosive batarangs at Darkseid's face.

"Bang bang bang!"

The flashes of the explosion illuminated Darkseid's face, but they didn't even make him blink.

"Darkseid! We're your opponents! Let go of that woman!" Bruce shouted.

Darkseid turned to look at Batman.

"I remember your outfit."

"The reptile that clung to life in a corner while the Kryptonians submitted."

He slightly lifted Harley in his hand so Bruce could see her more clearly.

"You protect her like a mother animal guarding her cubs. It seems this female in white is very important to you."

Let me guess...

A slight, cold smile appeared on Darkseid's lips.

"Is she connected to the person who killed the Son of Krypton?"

Bruce's grip on the gun tightened; Darkseid's intuition was too sharp.

"Answer me," Darkseid stared intently at Batman, "Where is that person?"

"He went somewhere you wouldn't expect," Bruce said, trying to remain calm. "Let her go, or else..."

"Or what?" Darkseid interrupted him, his tone full of disdain. "Trying to prove your anger to me with your pathetic strength?"

Darkseid turned his gaze back to Harley in his hands.

Harley was on the verge of losing consciousness. Her eyes rolled back, her legs were struggling less and less, and the green wooden mask tied to her head swayed slightly with her spasms.

"You've placed your hopes on a coward who's hiding."

Darkseid's voice echoed throughout the square and, through the diligent cameras, reached the ears of every viewer around the world.

"He killed my servant, but he dared not face my wrath."

"Since he cherishes this female so much..."

Darkseid's fingers began to tighten little by little.

A painful hiss escaped Harley's throat, and her hands fell limply to her sides.

At that moment, countless viewers around the world covered their mouths, tears of despair streaming down their faces.

The hero who brought them hope, his bride is about to be killed in public by Darkseid!

"Perhaps killing this girl..."

Darkseid stared at Batman, his eyes filled with cruel mockery.

"...Won't that person, like a mad dog, crawl out of his hiding place?"

Bruce roared, "No! Stop!!" He pulled the trigger without hesitation, and the energy beam poured wildly onto Darkseid, but it didn't cause the slightest ripple.

"Click".

A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out.

Harley Quinn's struggling limbs froze instantly, then fell limply to her sides.

Her once wild eyes had completely lost their luster.

Darkseid released his grip.

Wearing a pure white wedding dress, Harley fell heavily onto the gravel-strewn ground like a puppet with its strings cut.

The wedding dress was covered in mud, making it look incredibly desolate.

"Harley..."

Bruce's knees buckled, and he collapsed to his knees.

The seemingly ever-calm Dark Knight raised his head and let out a heart-wrenching roar.

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

He failed.

He failed again! He couldn't protect Louise, and now he can't protect Harley either.

This was not only because he had lost a comrade-in-arms, but also because he knew that as the man who was the last hope of the earth, his only bond had been severed.

If Homelander knew Harley was dead, what would he do?

Could that man with unparalleled power suddenly transform into a destroyer even more terrifying than Darkseid?

Everyone felt a deep sense of despair.

Darkseid watched this scene with satisfaction.

Fear and despair—that's his favorite food.

"Now, prepare for destruction," Darkseid coldly issued Death's notice.

Countless people around the world covered their mouths in disbelief as they watched on their screens.

The girl who was about to become a bride was killed so easily.

Tears welled up in every eye in front of the screen.

"Ouch! This really hurts...it's killing me!"

The crowd, their hearts heavy with sorrow, were abruptly interrupted by a voice.

The sound was filled with inexplicable excitement and a sense of the bizarre.

What...what is that voice?

Bruce suddenly looked up.

Darkseid frowned and looked down.

"boom--!!!"

A colorful energy tornado erupted from where Harley had fallen.

Accompanying the tornado was an extremely exaggerated cartoon sound effect.

The sounds of sirens, train whistles, marimba playing, and maniacal laughter filled the air.

"What is that?" Darkseid's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt. He was actually sensing a divine power fluctuation from this tornado that he had never encountered before.

The tornado came to an abrupt end.

The person standing there was revealed to be Harley Quinn!

This scene left everyone speechless.

But Harley Quinn had completely changed by this point.

Her face turned into an extremely bright, gelatinous emerald green, her original features were exaggeratedly enlarged, and her mouth was stretched almost to her ears, revealing two rows of huge, white teeth.

"Ssssssssmokin'!! So cool!!"

Harley put her hands on her hips, struck a seductive and exaggerated pose, and let out a long, drawn-out scream.

Let's liven up this dull party!

Bruce stared at her blankly: "Harley...?"

"Wrong! Now please call me—the super cute, number one party queen in the universe!"

Harley spun around on the spot, her white skirt spinning like a helicopter propeller.

Then, with a speed that completely defies the laws of physics, she instantly glided to Darkseid.

"Now, it's Queen Harley's turn to give you your party presents!"

"Hmph! Whatever your trickery or disguise," Darkseid sneered, his massive fist slamming mercilessly towards her head. "Only death awaits!"

"Bang!"

That punch landed squarely.

But something strange happened.

The moment Harley's head made contact with the fist, it was smashed flat, and her neck, like a piece of highly elastic rubber, was stretched backward by Darkseid's fist for a full ten meters!

Her eyeballs even flew out of their sockets like springs due to the pressure, hanging in mid-air.

Just the next second.

"Duang—!!"
