Due to the combination of a web app rewrite taking longer than anticipated and a winter lurgy sapping my ability and motivation to do anything, this filler episode is all I could manage after several weeks. Sorry! In fact, I'm now officially calling this break in transmission an extended hiatus.

Panel 1: Batman (hanging upside down) and the Author Avatar are having a conversation.

Batman:

What has Professor X got that I haven't?

Panel 2:

Author Avatar:

He's wealthy...

Owns a mansion...

Has cool gadgets...

Uses his wealth for the greater good...

And he can have an occasional dark side.

Panel 3: {{Beat}} Batman just glares at the Author Avatar.

Panel 4:

Author Avatar:

And he doesn't wear silly outfits.

Usually.
