Comments & Additional Info
This story was released on the special "Assistant Editor's Month" day. During this time, several issues were written by assistant editors who had the creative freedom to make wild decisions while the main editor was away. Some of these stories were more outlandish than others, but personally, this one is my favorite. It’s completely nonsensical, and the unexpected twists make it all the more enjoyable.
