There's really only two ways this can end, Wilbur. You either successfully extract yourself from the Worthiverse and Iris never sees you again, or the Syndicate discovers your plot and you end up in the "Dip."

Be careful that you know what you're doing, Wilbur. Once you leave the Worthiverse, you can never go back. Also, there are fewer women in the real world who are inclined to date an overweight comic book character.

Well played, Wilbur. Well played. The first step in a successful Worthiverse extraction is to sever all emotional ties. It must be done in a such a way that former loves and family do not come looking for you for at least a year. This means they need to believe that they broke up with you. Well played, indeed.

Of course, none of us can blame Wilbur for running away from his life. But I get the feeling that something far more devious is up his sleeve. I believe Wilbur has found a way to extract himself from the Worthiverse and access the real world. Of course, he has to cloak his language to ensure the King Features Syndicate doesn't suspect anything. If the Syndicate starts to believe he could extract himself, they will have no recourse but to take punitive measures, like killing him off, or worse, marrying him to Iris. Parse his language carefully over the next few weeks. He may be sending us secret messages, seeking support and asylum.

This sounds a lot like Adam Miller wanting to spend all his time with that congressman. Maybe Wilbur thinks it will turn out just the same.

That car appears to be going into some sort of skid. Don't drive angry, Wilbur. Don't drive angry.

Whether intended or not, perhaps the most effective break-up line ever spoken.

Do you remember when La Rosa used to be charming, before the big corporate take over? Lots of changes since 2008, and they aren't all for the best:

He was in Japan for four months, but it seems he never communicated with his daughter while he was gone. Or his girlfriend. Probably because Japan is so far away. I mean, how could they have possibly communicated? It takes months for a letter to cross the Pacific on a sailing ship.

Wait, that's it? Here's a casserole, see you in a year!? Where is this headed? Please do NOT let this be a year-long story about Wilbur traveling the world in search of other people's adventures. If it is, I'll see you in a year.
