On an empty rooftop, Zuo Ci and the others stood around in the breeze, bored out of their minds.
"So we really can't do anything right now? We just have to stand here and wait?"
Superman returned to the rooftop after casually stopping his hundred and thirty-seventh robbery. He glanced around, only to find that nothing had changed.
"Can't help it. We're not the ones controlling the world-hopping. When we leave depends entirely on when the guy on the other end pulls us over."
Zuo Ci put down his comic book, looking just as helpless.
Mark had reached this world through Angstrom's portal ability-the guy with the black, bulging brain-so naturally, they had to rely on that to get back, too.

It could take a few minutes, or it could take days.
"Don't you have a way to travel between universes?"
Batman had returned as well, after dealing with two hundred crimes. Along the way, he had stopped by the Batcave and picked up a pile of monitoring equipment that looked incredibly sophisticated.
