Still, it is a fairly fun little tale, though!
Post-WWII, the skies are getting a mite bit crowded around Eternity...
But maybe you should wait, because this is no ordinary plane!
Let's look inside, shall we?
Anyway, it's a good thing Kid Eternity was snoopy, because it turns out that the
God, I love fictional countries.
But...
But why did Kid call you here? Especially since, well...
Well, it turns out this was one of those accidental summonings...
Is that seriously how it works? Are Kid's powers like Google auto-fill, so when you start saying a name, Eternity guesses what you want and fills in the rest? Does that make a lick of sense?
Well, if that's the way it works, it reinforces my theory that the Walking Dead happened when Kid had the hiccups one day.
SPECIAL BONUS FACT: The other time Kid called up Don Quixote, it was also an accident--he was trying to summon D'artagnan. Perhaps we have the beginnings of a running gag here?
Anyway, Kid finally gets who he wanted:
But calling a 19th century cavalry best known for being routed, and putting them against a modern military group with modern weapons, turns out not to be too much more effective than Don Quixote was.
There's still the matter of getting the plane back where it belongs!
And before you quibble whether these early aviators could pilot a modern super-bomber, remember Kid's earlier observation that the plane was "partly remote controlled, " whatever the hell that means.
Anyway, it works, so they must be able to handle the plane!
