American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

287. Superman’s Coordinates.

Billy's mouth hung open in shock as he stared at the woman holding a strange hammer aloft.

She was a blonde woman wielding the power of thunder. Because she wore a half-helmet, Billy didn't immediately recognize her as Black Canary, but even if he had, he probably wouldn't have believed it.

The current Black Canary looked vastly different from the martial arts expert he remembered. She was now clad in divine armor that gleamed with a metallic sheen, radiating a terrifying divine power that even Billy couldn't help but marvel at. He had never felt such immense strength before.

It wasn't just that the power of Mjolnir was formidable; after Asgard fell, all the dark divine power scattered across the universe had gathered within Black Canary.

On top of that, her inherent compatibility with the power of thunder allowed her to fully harness this divine force. If it had been anyone else, they might not have been able to wield such potent thunderous might.

"What? Don't recognize me?" Black Canary smiled slightly. But as she looked at Billy's current state, it was as if a knife twisted in her heart.

Seeing how gravely wounded Shazam was, even with his immense strength, made Black Canary dread to think what horrors the members of the Teen Titans must have faced.

"B-Black Canary?" Billy stammered, managing to identify her voice.

But there wasn't time for a chat. The Doomsday-like Parademon that had been kicked away earlier charged at them again. Seeing this, Black Canary quickly shielded Billy and hurled Mjolnir.

The sheer force of the hammer drove the Doomsday Parademon back. Though it didn't crush its skull, the terrifying power of Mjolnir still sent the creature flying.

After making a loop in the air, the hammer returned to Black Canary's hand. She glanced at Billy, then, holding onto the hammer for support, descended toward the ground, knowing she couldn't fight at full strength while protecting him.

On the ground, Ashley and Pietro, already prepared to assist, arrived at the landing spot. They each took one of Billy's arms to support him.

"Take care of him."

Leaving those words behind, Black Canary spun Mjolnir again, launching herself back into the sky, ready for round two against the Doomsday Parademon.

Though the Doomsday Parademon was incredibly strong, it was nothing more than a durable punching bag against a true Kryptonian like Kara and a Black Canary empowered by the thunder god's strength.

If there had been more of them, they might have posed a threat, but with only two, they were no match. Kara and Black Canary completely dominated the fight.

"Alright, I get it now. Dinah's power is something else," Barbara murmured as she watched the terrifying spectacle, which looked like the arrival of a god of thunder.

Earlier, Black Canary had told them about the divine power of Mjolnir, but without seeing it in action, it had been hard for Barbara and Kate to imagine what that power was like. Their only impression of the hammer was that it was something most people couldn't lift.

"With this kind of commotion, those Parademons outside aren't going to sit still. We might get surrounded by a countless swarm of them," Kate couldn't help but warn.

"Don't worry, I can use magic to teleport us all out of here," Alex said, walking towards Billy with the group. "By the way, has there been any update from Lois? Can't we still pinpoint Clark's location?"

"Lois sent word that Clark and Rachel have convinced Constantine. They need the greatest sorcerer on this Earth to find Damian's location. They should be there by now. I'll have them send us the coordinates," Kate responded.

If Alex remembered correctly, Damian had already taken over the League of Assassins and was hiding in a secret fortress in Tibet. However, Alex didn't know the exact location of the place, so he had no way to teleport there directly.

"Hurry up, we don't have much time," Alex said. "Also, remind Jason and Barbara—if they need to bring anything, now's the time to grab it. We're getting ready to leave."

As he spoke, Alex approached Billy and extended his hand with a smile. "Finally, we meet, Billy Batson. I'm Alex."

Billy, still somewhat shaken, didn't recognize Ashley and Pietro, but when he saw Alex, he let out a sigh of relief and shook his hand.

"It's great to meet you in person, Alex, but you've got to explain what's going on with Black Canary."

"There will be time for that, but not right now." Alex snapped his fingers, and a magical portal opened up. The next moment, Doctor Strange's tattered cloak flew through the portal.

This was the magical cloak that had been forcefully controlled by Red Skull. After freeing itself from his grasp, it had come to Alex on its own, drawn by his great magical power.

Though it looked tattered now, its intelligence and abilities were still incredibly powerful. In another universe, this cloak would still be considered one of the most coveted artifacts by sorcerers seeking its recognition.

The cloak danced excitedly in the air, as if thrilled to finally be free again. At Alex's nod, it understood its mission. The cloak turned and flew down, draping itself over Billy's shoulders.

"What is this...?"

Billy, suddenly enveloped by the magical cloak, felt a bit uncomfortable. However, as soon as Ashley and Pietro let go of him, he began to hover gently in the air, and immediately understood Alex's intention.

"...Cool!"

Since Billy had lost a leg, without transforming into Shazam, he couldn't move freely. So Alex had given him the magical cloak to help him. Now, Billy wouldn't need crutches anymore.

And the best part? Even if Billy transformed into Shazam, the magical cloak could still fit over his white hood without much issue. The only downside was that Billy was a little short right now, and if he didn't float higher, the cloak would drag on the ground.

"Consider this a welcome gift," Alex said, patting Billy on the shoulder with a smile.

"I don't even know how to thank you," Billy replied, genuinely moved.

Out of the corner of his eye, Alex noticed Kate with a slightly jealous expression, as if wondering why others got special gifts while she, part of the Bat family, didn't. However, she didn't say anything. They were facing a grave enemy—this wasn't the time for jokes.

Suddenly, Barbara and Jason arrived on their Bat-cycles, speeding toward them. Most of the supplies from the warehouse had already been stored in Alex's magical space, but they still had a few personal items to gather. The bikes screeched to a halt in front of the group, and Barbara dismounted from the back.

"The emergency system just sent a warning. Three nearby Parademon nests are on the move. They must have sensed the battle with Kara and Black Canary and are closing in on us."

The Parademon movement didn't surprise anyone; Alex had already expected it. That's why he had Kara get involved personally.

At the same time, Kate's Bat-communicator started to beep. She flipped it open and saw it was a message from Lois.

"We've got the coordinates!"

Kate looked at the information Lois had sent and quickly nodded at Alex. Upon hearing this, Alex didn't hesitate. He immediately connected telepathically to Kara and Black Canary's minds.

"Party is over, ladies. It's time to go."
