Synopsis for "The Man Who Quit the Human Race!"
When Governor Andrew Warner resigns his position, it is at the behest of Batman and Robin, who reveal that Warner is not a human being. It is revealed that due to a genetic quirk he is mutating into a highter evolved state and has asked Batman and Robin to help him with the transition.
However, when they scientifically speed up the process, the future man that Warner becomes decides that the human race is inferior and thus he wishes to enslave it. Battling Batman and Robin, it subconsciously leaves clues how to get out each trap it sticks them into. Eventually revealing the secret to its defeat: green light. Batman comes across the weakness at a moment when the future creature is bombarding itself with green rays to make it invincible.
With the future man knocked out, Batman and Robin arrange for it to be shot into space in a rocket which will orbit around the sun until a time when the human race will be as evolved as Werner.
