Linkara: Hello, and welcome to Atop the Fourth Wall, where bad comics burn. (suddenly looks up as a thought comes to him) Say... (takes a pocket watch out of his coat and looks at it) It's Miller Time!

("Miller Time" title is shown)

Linkara: (laughs) Yeah, it's, uh, been a while since the last "Miller Time", hasn't it?

(A montage of Frank Miller's comics are shown, starting with "Robocop vs. the Terminator #1")

Linkara (v/o): It's not intentional, it's just, the last time I talked about Frank Miller, I was actually rather nice to the guy, since "Robocop vs. the Terminator #1" was an okay comic.

(Cut to a shot of "Holy Terror")

Linkara (v/o): Buuut then people kept requesting this and "Holy Terror" and, well, I was reminded why I hate this racist, misogynistic sack of crap to begin with.

(Cut to shots of "The Dark Knight Returns")

Linkara (v/o): People have been wondering if I've seen the Dark Knight Returns straight-to-DVD movies. I have not seen them, and while I will at some point, I don't really care all that much. I thought we'd established by now that I care more about the comics than I do any adaptations of them. I'm sure they're quite good, mostly because the original story comes from before that brain parasite got inside of Frank Miller's head and began sucking away anything that made him rational and reasonable.

(Cut to a montage of shots of "All-Star Batman and Robin" up to this point)

Linkara (v/o): Anyway, our story so far: An escaped mental patient named Steve found Batman's outfit and came across a lottery ticket that allowed him to get rich and thus pretend that he's Batman. As a result, he has kidnapped a young boy whose parents were killed at a circus performance and murdered several police officers. Then we had a random tangent to Black Canary that will kinda sorta be paid off in stupid ways in another issue. Black Canary in this comic is a random, Kung Fu-wielding, Irish ninja who worked in the worst bar ever, and I'm pretty sure she killed some innocent people, too. Vicki Vale was injured and is at the hospital, and Superman said "Damn!" a whole lot. I'm sure there was more to it than that, but thanks to all the alcohol I ingested during my reviews of the "Marville" comics, I tend to black out a bit on some memories.

Linkara: So let's dig into (holds up today's comic) "All-Star Batman and Robin #5" and see what Frankie's got for us this time.

(The title sequence plays; title card has electronic music play (I don't know what song it is, exactly))
