Murder Press Briefing

With the city on edge over a possible serial-killer murder, a police chief hands the podium to lead homicide detective Ray Dunham, who refuses to comment on the case. One reporter, Dave Allen, uses every turn at the microphone to complain that DC Comics rejected his graphic novel Gar-Girl, then fishes for the detective's opinion of it. As Dunham grows exasperated, the other reporters get drawn into the comic's lore and one erupts at a colleague who tries to steer things back to the murder. Finally the masked, knife-carrying killer himself joins the press pool to ask about Gar-Girl's origin, and Allen's absurd answer reveals she is a gargoyle who becomes a girl rather than the reverse.

Aired in the Halloween-weekend episode hosted by Miles Teller, which InsideHook noted leaned into true-crime parody alongside the Missing Wives Docuseries sketch.
