A Clockwork Iris

The multiverse can be viewed — not terribly accurately, it’s true — as a mirror smashed into an infinite number of fragments.

No surprise then that, at one moment in time and in one such fragment, there resided that renowned transtemporal aviatrix, Ms Iris Wildthyme, along with her friend and drinking companion, Clockwork Panda. In a universe filled with brass and copper, where the skies are full of zeppelins, and where thick goggles are, for some reason, very much in fashion, they live their lives in a bright red airship, the number 22 to Putney Aerodrome.

These are their adventures…
