[Billy Bat 138 Translation by Kewl0210]
Page 1:
Maggie: Hey!
Hey, Mom, hold on!!
He's Kevin Goodman!
Let's at least get an autograph!
Jackie: I told him what I had to tell him.
My job's done now.
Mag: Huuuh? Oh, come on!!
Yama: Ah well. We're just the straw he grabbed at.
Mag: Huh?
Side: Timmy's a liar?! What's Billy's intending by telling them that?! Was the terrorism of New York a work of fiction?!

Page 2:
Yama: We're just helpin' out the bat.
It's up ta those people now.
Mag: Hah......

Page 3:
Kevin: He's a liar...
Timmy Sanada is a liar.....
Title: Chapter 138 The Truth of the Liar (5/8)

Page 4:
Kevin: ........
Should I believe Timmy........
Or should I believe that woman.........?
SFX: BUBUUUUU BUBUUUUU

Page 5:
SFX: BUBUUUUU
Guy: You doing okay? You've been hanging up on that phone every time it goes off.
Kevin: It's my manager and editor.
It's a deadline at my job and they're searching desperately for me.
Guy: What? I thought it was an ex-girlfriend or something.
Deadline, eh? You a writer?
Kevin: Y... Yeah.
Something like that.
SFX: BUBUUU BUBUUU
Kevin: Yes. Hello?
Guy: Oh, is it a woman this time?
Kevin: Phil? Is that you?

Page 6:
Guy: Phil...... A man, huh?
Kevin: Why didn't you pick up any of the times I called you?
Huh? What was that?
Are you about to do a live show? It's so loud I can't hear you!
No.... Like I told you in the email, I want you to come to the world trade center at 8AM.
Huh?
Are you drunk? Geez, why're you still doing weird crap like this at your age......
Hey, Phil!!
I can't hear you! I have no idea what you're......
SFX: TSUUUU
Kevin: Huuuu...
Guy: I feel bad for you, getting pulled around by that cell phone.
Me, I'd never pick up a phone in the middle of a yankee game.

Page 7:
Kevin: Ah......
That's right, TV......!!
Guy: Heh?
Kevin: Please take what I'm about to say seriously.
Very soon, something terrible will happen in New York.
That's about to be broadcast!!
Change the channel!!
Guy: No way, kid. The Yankees!!
Kevin: Please!!
I just need to see the very last minute of the 'Billy Bat Hour'!!
Guy: Billy Bat Hour?
Heheh. Even I watch Billy a lot.

Page 8:
Guy: My pop would watch boxing and we'd fight over the channel a lot.....
Kevin: Please, hurry!!
Guy: Don't panic.
Girl: Billy!
Billy: Woah, woa~~~~h!
Falling in love with me'll make your father sad.
Girl: Billy.....
Narration: Disappearing alone into the mist, what adventures will Billy face next week......?
Guy: Same timeslot as always, e~~h?
Kevin: It's next...... It's starting......
Billy: We have an announcemeeeent!

Page 9:
Kevin: When this goes out, all of New York's gonna be in an uproar......
But I really don't care. It's being broadcast so there will be an uproar...... ["will" in italics.]
......?!
Audrey: You feeling all right, everyone out there in TV land?
I'm Audrey Culkin of Chuck Culkin Enterprises.

Page 10:
Audrey: We at Culkin Enterprises now have a special announcement for all the Billy Bat fans out there.
Kevin: What... is this......?
Audrey: The author of Billy Bat you all love.....
Kevin Goodman is retiring.
Kevin: ........
Audrey: And in his place, the one who will be bringing life to Billy is...

Page 11:
Audrey: The greatest artist of the 21st century,
Timmy Sanada!!
We are inviting all of you to a Billy Bat adventure more thrilling and dramatic than any before.
Guy: Whe~~~w! What a woman that president of the Billy company is.
Someone: Kids fashion is coming to the Culkin store!!
Guy: That's all, right? I'm gonna change it back to the Yankees.

Page 12:
Kevin: Ah...... Hello, is Audrey there?
Huh?! She isn't?!
Devivie's looking for me?
I don't care! This isn't the time for that!!
Timmy?!
SFX: GACHA
Kevin: I cannot come to the phone right now. If you have a message......
Kevin: ......
Timmy, it's me, Kevin. Call me right away!!
Okay?! As soon as you get this!!

Page 13:
Guy: ..........
Kevin: Wh...... What the hell......?!
What's going on......?

Page 14:
Guy: That'll be 2 dollars 50 cents for the new Billy Bat on sale today.
That'll be 2.50 for Billy Bat.
Kevin: .........
Editor: "Do not get close to New York City".
You want us to print this?
Kevin: Yes. I want it clearly visible on the back cover.

Page 15:
Guy: That's 2.50 for the new Billy Bat.

Page 16:
Kevin: It's not here.....!!
It's not anywhere.....!!
SFX: BUBUUUU BUBUUUU
Hello?
Audrey!!
What's going on here?!!
Would you explain last night's TV episode to me......?!! And this morning's new Billy comic......!!
Why would you do something like this without asking me......?!!

Page 17:
Audrey: I never gave the go-ahead as the executive producer to replace the TV spot last night. That's all.
As for the matter of your retirement, I just did precisely what you wanted.
You also wanted Timmy to be the only attributed author because Timmy is the one drawing it.
The reason we replaced the back cover of the newest Billy comic
was because Timmy didn't like that public announcement.
If even one copyright holder says no, then we can't run it even if you want to.
You understand that, don't you?
......So your contract has now ended.
If you're dissatisfied, then maybe you should get a lawyer.

Page 18:
Audrey: Those 20 years or so were fun. Thank you.

Page 19:
Jackie: That person can't see the bat.
Audrey: The greatest artist of the 21st century, Timmy Sanada!!
Jackie: He said that person is a big liar!

Page 20:
SFX: KAH
Kevin: Because it was a lie.
That warning about "staying away from New York".
That's why he didn't want to run it, huh......?

Page 21:
Kevin: So all that Timmy was saying about New York......
wasn't something he heard from the bat......?
It was just a fictional story he made up as a cartoonist?
Bit I......

Page 22:
Kevin: I had that image in my head of "something happening to two towers" for many years.
Was that just some cartoonist's daydream......?
Or was it...........
the bat talking to me......?
Phil: Yo.
Kevin: !?

Page 23:
Phil: What'd ya call us out here at the crack 'a dawn for?
Kevin: Phil!!
You came!!
Phil: Yeah. I came straight here after a night of live performances.
Kevin: Sorry for being abrupt, but I have a favor to ask.
Phil: Let me just say this first, we won't do a thing for the sorta fee they give college bands anymore.
Kevin: Yeah, the pay'll be great.
Guys: Ooh!

Page 24:
Kevin: I want to you to blast the words "Get away from the World Trade Center" at a high volume.
Side: On this day, September 11th 2001, Kevin was in that spot...... Next time, a sudden development!!
Bottom: "Billy Bat" Chapter 138 / End
Running next issue, too!! Look forward to it!!
