In this episode Kiwi is able to pull the name of the Star Wars race that Kit Fisto is out of his ass which is the type of crazy feat you come here for. That's right, it's another serving of DC's Absolute comics about those famous superheroes: Batman, Superman, and of course none other than Wonder Woman her very self. We have a lot of good things to say about them, and who knows, maybe we even get a little bit crazy with it - much like those dastardly Party Animals that Absolute Batman has to deal with. So settle in, and enjoy the show! The comics are Absolute Superman 4, Absolute Batman 5 and Absolute Wonder Woman 5 by the way.
