We start at an unnamed Caribbean island...
Big mistake, because...
Now, I won't say this story is padded, but...yeah, it's pretty damn padded. Kid can't summon anyone, he encounters a lovelorn couple (whose story is never resolved), he keeps escaping and getting captured. It's pretty tedious, actually.
Eventually, Keeper shows up, so the story can get going again.
But:
Still, Villa gets results:
Wait, Robespierre?
Kid, have you actually read any history?
And, therefore, it's no surprise when...
Nope:
Still, it's a lot calmer than a bloodbath, so Kid can leave with a (mostly) clean conscience.

From Hit Comics #45 (1947)
Although it was wrapped up neatly with a bow at the end, like most stories of its time, I give this story credit for its realistic treatment of violence and its consequences.
