1. A caption reads, "20 years ago…." Past Kevin sits at his drafting table, drawing comics. Behind him, a time portal opens and a desperate Future Kevin leans out. "Hey! I'm YOU from the future!" Future Kevin says. "Don't post our artwork online!"
2. Future Kevin continues, "In the future, companies will train A.I. to mimic our style without our consent!"
3. Future Kevin continues, "Then, any talentless hack can make comics just like ours!" Past Kevin looks skeptically at his work.
4. "…Like ours, but funny?" Past Kevin asks. "IT'S INFURIATING!" Future Kevin says, clenching his fists in frustration.

🦇 ☕

1. Commissioner Gordon and Batman stand on the roof of the GCPD headquarters at night near the bat symbol. "Thanks for helping us catch The Riddler, Batman," says Gordon. "Gotham owes you a great debt."
2. Gordon and Batman stand facing each other for an awkward beat.
3. Batman blurts out, "…Wanna hang out after work?"
4. Later, in a psychiatrist's office, Batman lays on a couch. Behind him in a chair, his therapist takes notes. "…And how are we doing with forming male friendships?" the therapist asks. "I'm so awkward!" Batman sighs.

1. Kevin slouches on his couch, bags under his eyes, playing his Switch. Next to him, an empty bag of Doritos and a few empty beer bottles. His bird, perched above him, leans in. "Umm… are you okay?" the bird asks. Kevin replies, "I read that playing Tetris helps distract your brain from anxious thoughts."
2. His bird looks concerned. "You've been playing for the last nine hours straight," he says. Kevin looks up briefly. "Have you seen the news lately?" he asks his bird.
3. His bird looks off into the distance, thinking, as Kevin goes back to his game.
4. Kevin continues playing, his bird nestled under his arm. The bird lays its head on Kevin's chest, watching him play.

1. In a dark police squad room, a tech sits in front of a monitor and keyboard. "Sergeant!" he says. "We have security camera footage from the crime scene!" The sergeant leans over his shoulder. "Show me," he says.
2. Close on the monitor: grainy footage of a parking garage. The sergeant points at a small, dark silhouette of a figure walking. "There's our perp," he says. "Enhance!"
3. The footage zooms in 200% on the silhouette. Not much more detail. "Enhance again!" the seargant says.
4. The footage zooms in to 400%. A little contrast in the figure, but still not enough. "Enhance using generative A.I.!" the sergeant commands.
5. The footage transforms into a purple-haired anime waifu with… a rather large chest. She winks and throws up the "peace" sign.
6. Back to the tech and the sergeant. "Nice," the sergeant says, smiling.

1. Kevin sits at his desk at work, checking his email on his laptop. A message from his dentist reads: "Reminder: Your dental appointment is tomorrow at 10:30AM."
2. Later that evening, Kevin stands in a crowded subway car, checking his phone. A text message from his dentist reads: "Reminder: your dental appointment is tomorrow at 10:30AM. Reply STOP to opt out of reminders." Kevin looks annoyed.
3. Later that night, Kevin sits at his dining room table, eating dinner. He holds his phone out to listen to a voicemail. It says "This is an automated reminder from your dentist's office. Your appointment is tomorrow at 10:30AM." Kevin looks angry.
4. Later that night, Kevin lies asleep in bed. It's quiet.
5. Suddenly, his dentist pokes his head up at the foot of Kevin's bed. "…Don't forget about tomorrow!" he says. Kevin screams in terror: "DAAAAH!"

🦇 🐈

1. Catwoman straddles a prone Batman. With a sly smile, she traces her finger across the bat-symbol on his chest. "So tell me…" she purrs, "What's the Big Bad Bat -really- afraid of?"
2. A close-up on Batman. He looks… sad? "Honestly?" he says, "I'm afraid that, if I fully process my childhood trauma and grief… I'll lose my motivation to fight crime."
3. A close-up on Catwoman. She looks away in discomfort as Batman continues. "…And since crime-fighting is such a big part of my identity, I'm afraid losing it will change how I define my masculinity," he says.
4. Catwoman sits on the couch of her hideout, looking out the window, concerned. Behind her, Poison Ivy leans over to gossip. "Sooo… how's it going with Batman?" Ivy asks. Catwoman replies, "Honestly, it's been a bit heavy since he started going to therapy…"

🧴

1. Close on Kevin's hands, shaking a bit of moisturizer from a pink bottle into his palm. A few feet away, a gruff-looking fellow puts up his hand in protest. "Moisturizer? With sunscreen?" he scoffs. "-pfft- I don't use any of that girlie stuff."
2. The gruff-looking fellow gets in Kevin's face, pointing at his own. "This here's the face of a -real- man," he says. Kevin recoils.
3. Extreme close-up on the fellow's scowling face. It's burnt, cracked, pock-marked, and craggy. It's… not pleasant.
4. Kevin winces. "Real men have skin cancer?" he asks. The gruff-looking fellow replies, "You mean my -face rubble-?"

👹

1. In his apartment, Kevin sits on his couch, smiling, knitting a little scarf. "What a relaxing new hobby I've found," he says. Behind him, The Grustle Monster rears up. "TURN IT INTO A SIDE HUSTLE!" it bellows.
2. Shocked, Kevin turns around to address The Grustle Monster. "C-can't I just enjoy it?" Kevin asks. "NO! MAKE YOUR PASSION YOUR PASSIVE INCOME!" The Grustle Monster shouts.
3. Kevin begins to interject, "But-". The Grustle Monster yells in his face, "MONETIZE YOUR FREE TIME!"
4. Kevin sits, cross-armed and scowling, behind a table at a craft fair. On the table, several of his knitted scarves are displayed. A sign above the table reads "Kevin's Stupid Scarves. $20 or whatever."
