"Jerry Siegel is a fellow who is intellectually and physically
circumcised and has his headquarters in New York. He invented a colorful
character that boasts a striking appearance, a strong body, and a red
swim suit ... The creative Israelite named this pleasing character with
an overdeveloped body and underdeveloped brain 'Superman.'"
-- from the SS magazine DAS SCHWARZE KORPS - April 25, 1940
The battle of the titans rages. Blocking out any control waves, Thor
finally feels illuminated and ready to serve his Old God Family. Thor
finally breaks his alter ego stick, his forced faith in sameness
nonsense. No more pop trivial trash "kultur" jack-off
propaganda for the false edification of the rabble. Thor once again
feels the true nature of power. The Justice League is alarmed.
Dissenters cannot be tolerated. Superman says, "Destroy this
creature before he jeopardizes our mission!" Thor says,
"C'mon, let's see you uglies try." Hawkgirl says, "He's
tearing up the lab! People, we have a problem..." Batman says,
"Remember, go light on him. Gentle restraints only." Thor
says, "I don't really know what you are up to, but I can live
without knowing." Hawkgirl says to Superman, "I'll try not to
do any permanent damage." Thor screams, "Inferior ones!
Prepare to..." SPZAKK! The Electromorph goes off. Thor gets angry.
Thor says, "My plans will never change, as much as you may meddle,
Justice League! Now you will pay! Mjolnir will teach you." Superman
says, "Of course, Thor. We'd appreciate whatever you can tell us
about what's happened. Batman will take your statement." Thor
ignores Superman and says to the negro Green Lantern, "Inferior
one! Prepare to surrender the light." The negro Green Lantern says,
"Me no dumb fuck, yo!" Thor laughs and says, "Even though
you are a Guardian of the Universe, my dear negro Green Lantern, I will
leave you with the dwarves who are my old acquaintances. I will have
nothing to do anymore with your violation of the rights of
hospitality." The negro Green Lantern is stunned. Thor continues,
"Furthermore, my dear negro Green Lantern, you have been brought up
too much on milk and sugar to stimulate my jeaulousy." KRUNCH!
Mjolnir strikes once, twice... No mo' negro Green Lantern... Superman
looses his cool and says in a loud voice, "You will not get away
with this, you renegade outlaw superhero!" Thor laughs and says,
"I know your kind that do not belong where the true heart is. From
afar you see, but you do not understand." Batman says to Superman,
"Don't worry, old pal, I will back you up. That renegade outlaw
superhero, the once proud and mighty Thor, has to understand that I once
made a vow to my parents, to their memory. Not solely to avenge evil,
but to protect the good." KRUNCH! Mjolnir strikes again once,
twice... Batman is no more. Thor says, "The inferior one with the
inferior ideology has to perish. It is the law of the Old Gods!"
Hawkgirl says, "You are moving fast and you are a strong one, oh
renegade outlaw superhero! But I can fly after you... For you are evil,
and there will be no escape for evil in these pages!" Thor laughs
and says, "I will clip your wings, weak creature - woman that
always follows fashionable lies." KRUNCH! Superman is shocked and
says, "You must realize that behind enemy lines you are doomed to
fail. In the long run, I will defeat you in the name of humanity, that
gracious host to aliens like me. You can only kill, oh renegade outlaw
superhero, but you will never win!" Thor claps thunder, laughs and
says, "For the battle of the planet, the means will justify the
victory. The cosmic struggle, as commanded by my father, as a Norse saga
dictated by a blind poet, as the only struggle that ever was, is and
will be... The cosmic struggle is already decided. I'll grant you leave
and spare you in time, faithful lapdog and worn-out poster boy, dear
Superman, so that you will see the truth of the melancholy motion of a
deplorable condition, a condition that will ease and vanish in due
time..." Superman screams, "You are mad! I shall stop
you!" Thor says, "You will not be able to hold back the day
when no more atonement will be possible." Superman, the symbol of
lies not reality (that serves and protects), shakes his head, flying,
fluttering, down, down... Aware is the Cosmos that the colors will fade
when the pale armies march.
