A roughly human-sized scrap of cloth is probably not the best glider design to begin with. But a scrap of shredded cloth with holes in it? Well, Batman's design is just that good, his aerodynamics so meticulously computed as to make 50% of the fabric actually superfluous for flight. A big thanks to reader Patrick Dietz for inspiring this strip by pointing out the Bat's uncanny gliding abilities.
