This story was a tribute to the respect of Superman's Creators, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster; Superman 1978 Movie Director, Richard Donner; and Wakfu Series creator, Anthony Roux
The scene is dark, as the curtains draw back. The black screen shows: June 1938
Narrator: In June 1938, the two sons of Jewish Immigrants, Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, the writer and artist of Action Comics, created a simple solution to all overwhelming problems: Superman.
Narrator: Superman became an icon, spanning many generations to become a hero just like him through the decades he lived through to inspire many generations to take up the step like him.
Then, the banner changes to something else in a dark area.
Narrator: In 2008, to promote a game, Dofus, Ankama, the French entertainment company, had led one founder to create an anime-inspired series, Wakfu.
Narrator: The series had created a phenomenal following in the fanbase and received critical acclaim for its storytelling, animation, and characters. Though there was a long break after Season 2 and another break after Season 3, Season 4 marks the series finale in 2024.
Then, the scene goes dark in shadow.
Narrator: Then something new happened...
Then, it fades back to reveal a cosmic entity observing two universes.
Narrator: The unknown creator found inspiration to put the elements to this new story: truth, justice, and a better tomorrow.
Then it shows it borrows small pieces of the DC universe and adds them to a new one.
Narrator: This creates an interesting story that no one ever thought it would work due to complications. However, only one had the motivation to bring joy for itself and others optionally as we begin to view the story---
Then it zooms in the fast of the universe to its sun.
Narrator: ---of Earth W4KFU
A minuscule red dot appears, growing larger and spreading evenly into a blazing red sun, which fills the scene. Then, the scene passes down through space and goes past its south pole, and shows what is beyond the red sun—the planet Krypton. A blue marble slowly appears to have patches of white as the scene continues moving forward and down. As the scene continues toward Krypton, the scene shows white crystalline structures amidst the white surface of the planet. Then, the POV shot looks down at the city of Kryptonopolis. There are other cities visible in the distance, as well as a crater.
The scene pans across the white, prismatic mountains of the city.
As the scene gets closer, it shows that Kryptonopolis is constructed of pure white crystalline matter. We see spires at a severe angle, the CAMERA TRACKS across futuristic glass buildings, tunnels, and other structures, finally heading towards a specific white dome. The CAMERA CLOSES IN on the domed roof of the building.
Man: This is no fantasy. No careless product of wild imagination.
Then the scene changes to trial chamber where a giant face on a wall fills the scene. The figure of Kryptonian, Jor-El, dressed in black, can be seen with his back to view.
Jor-El: No, my good friends.
Jor-El turns around so that his features are now visible. He has a handsome, intelligent face along with a distinguished white hair.
Jor-El: These indictments *holding a transparent crystalline wand whose tip lights up and glows* that I have brought you today. *Glowing ends* Specific charges listed herein against the individuals.
He holds up the wand horizontally in both hands as he walks.
Jor-El: Their acts of treason, their ultimate aim of sedition. *pause* These...are matters of undeniable fact.
The scene shows the giant faces on the wall of the Council of Elders, who watch the proceedings in judgment, presumably from some other location.
A circular white column of light is in the midst of the chamber. Trapped inside, thanks to two black rotating hoops, are three figures dressed in black. Jor-El circles the edge of the column of light, with the giant faces of the elders in the B.G.
Jor-El: I ask you now to pronounce judgment on those accused...
Then he gestures to the three figures and starts to walk around.
The tall, bearded, voiceless man, known as NON, peers through the light at JOR-EL.
Jor-El: ...whose only means of expression are wanton violence and destruction. *pause* On the woman, URSA...
A short brunette woman wearing red lipstick silently stares back at Jor-El with what appears to be contempt.
Jor-El: ...whose perversions and unreasoning hatred of all mankind...
Then it switches back to Jor-El
Jor-El: ...have threatened even the children of the planet Krypton...
Jor-El walks around to face of a military general of Krypton, General Zod, a man staring at the floor with a beard; he briefly looks up and faces his jailer as Jor-El starts to speak, as the scene pans toward him.
Jor-El: Finally, General Zod, once trusted by this Council, is charged with maintaining the defense of the planet Krypton itself. He is the chief architect of this intended revolution and author of this insidious plot to establish a new order amongst us, with himself as absolute ruler.
Genreal Zod glances at Jor-El. The huge faces of the Council of Elders peer down from the wall as Jor-El finishes.
Jor-El: You have heard the evidence. The decision of the Council will now be heard.
Silence. The scene pans up to the faces. The First Elder pauses momentarily.
First Elder: Guilty.
Then a close-up of General Zod's eyes
Other Elders Voice in rapid succession spoke: Guilty.
On the day, the last Elder votes "guilty," and the wall becomes a black void. All that is left are Jor-El, the prisoners within the white light, and the black rotating hoops.
General Zod: The vote must be unanimous, Jor-El. It has therefore now become your decision.
Jor-El stares blankly
General Zod: You alone will condemn us if you wish. And you alone will be held responsible by me.
Jor-El stares, and then the crystal wand's tip glows. The scene transfers to the eyes of Non, Ursa, and General Zod in quick succession. The scene then focuses back on Jor-El.
General Zod: Join us.
The crystal wand tip stops glowing, and without expression, Jor-El turns away and starts to leave.
General Zod: You have been known to disagree with the Council before. Yours could become an important voice in the new order, second only to my own! I offer you a chance for greatness, Jor-El! Take it! Join us!
Jor-El continues to walk towards the area, his back to the prisoners. General Zod's face twists with rage.
General Zod: You "will" bow down before me, Jor-El. I swear it! No matter that it takes an eternity...
The villains are alone in the trial chamber.
General Zod rants with a look of pain as well as rage on his face.
General Zod: You "will" bow down before me! Both you, and then one day, your heirs!!!
The villains look up, concerned. The domed roof of the building cracks open and starts to swivel back. The column of light is on a round black platform within the trial chamber. The villains now look even more concerned as the white column of light extends into the sky as the dome eventually stops moving.
A crystal pane-like shape, the Phantom Zone, travels rapidly through the sky, tumbling end over end, approaching the villains. The villains look more afraid than ever. The Phantom Zone enters through the open dome and closes down on them. The Phantom Zone then envelops the villains, who raise their arms and scream as it gathers them up in a linear, two-dimensional fashion, then sweeps upwards after the scene briefly swirls around.
The Phantom Zone travels quickly across the sky, bearing the imprints of the three villains, as it heads towards outer space. Their voices can be heard pleading for help and forgiveness as it does so.
