Dial E For Eternity--The Floating Sandwich?!?!?

Time once again for the wonders of Kid Eternity text stories!!


Well, it's a good mystery, even if it took forever to set up...

"One of those floating islands"???

King Kamehameha!! It's nice to see Kid summoning someone non-Caucasian, particularly in a non-stereotypical role. (It's also not clear which Kamehameha Kid summoned, as there were five Hawaiian kings with that name, all "long dead" by 1948. Let's just assume Kamehameha I, shall we?)

The North Wind!! Well, why not?

Notes:

**It is 1948, so maybe we could have made the "island natives" a little less primitive, with their "jabbering" and "gesticulating"? Just saying.

**"You have done me one or two favors, Kid" implies some untold stories. These previously unseen adventures will form the basis of my second Kid Eternity series, Kid Eternity's Greatest Hits (like in Hit Comics--get it?!?!)!

**That North Wind seems like such a character. I wish we'd seen more of him.

**Very cavalier of Kid and Keeper just to leave, and assume that the island would make it all the way back to "Mot Mot"...
