Antarctica. (And Whiteout would be an awesome movie with Janeane Garofalo as Carrie Stetko, but of course Reese Witherspoon is attached.)

I really wouldn’t call Merv a janitor. I got the impression that he’s the foreman of a contruction crew. He’s also your worst nightmare – a pumpkin with a gun!

I can’t believe I forgot Siman Archard’s city – I’ve got every issue of Ruse but I couldn’t put my finger on the answer.

It was the Messerschmitt Me 262 Jet.  
He was recalled to action in World War Two, and his plane touched down near one of the Camps.

Those camps.  
He surrender to the Allies after seeing that.
