Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorForty million. For a man made of clay.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLast question: what happens next, and is he washable?

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWarner Bros. hasn't announced when it opens or whether Clayface survives a spin cycle, but we'll find out soon enough.

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI'm delighted either way, and I've faffed my way to the end of this block.
