Overview

""Platypus"" is the prequel to the Viking series of international superheroes. This is an adventure story about two brilliant Australian engineers, Wallaby and Echidna, and their extremely precocious baby boy. The story begins when baby Platypus gets lost in the Sydney International Airport. This happens just minutes before the family of three are going to load the plane to Norway for a year contract with engineering projects in hydro powered dam reconstruction. Four-month-old Plat realizes at the check in counter that his parents have sent Koh-koh, his super cute stuffed koala bear, into the checked luggage and may not ever see him again! Unbeknownst to his parents and the ticket agent, Plat gets out of his baby stroller and sets off to save Koh-koh. Throughout the story, Plat and his stuffed animal have animated debates and disagreements about all of Platypus's ideas and innovations. Most of the time, Plat needs 'Koh-koh the Flying Koala Bear' to participate in airborne shenanigans involving ... catapulting him across a lunchroom into a bowl of guacamole, test-piloting an international hot-air birthday-balloon, flying down experts ski runs in the back country of Norway, and being slingshotted vertically for an 8-second hang time in the dome of the Hagia Sophia. Eventually, the family meet Pope John Paul II on Christmas Day in the Vatican, where the Pope heals Koh-koh's missing toes, and Platypus ends up blessing the Pope when he sneezes.
