Comment(s):
- "Batmyte" (not to be confused with the Bat-Mite) is an orange bat-like creature flying around the Hotline HQ. Not given a name in the issue, he was later named by DC fan Richard Meyer, and Bob Rozakis declared the name "official".
Synopsis: - Thanks to Ellie, Mister Muscle is freed from all charges in court as she can prove that Ralph Bartoli was murdered by his own lawyer, Eric F. Schuster.
- Meanwhile, the man behind the recent attacks on Hero Hotline is revealed as the super-villain called the Calculator. He takes out the Hotline members one by one, then attacks the Hotline HQ to get his revenge on the Coordinator. However, the Hotline members have a few tricks up their proverbial sleeves, and defeat the villain.
- Other events include Fred appearing on the Alberto Rosario show, and Marie the Psychic Turtle is reported to be pregnant.
