It is an important story both because its creation dates back to 1936 and is the first story ever made by Franco Caprioli, and because it is a kind of "archetype" of his future stories. In fact, it already contains the main themes and characters on which all (or almost) of his tales of the sea will then be based: the islands, the South Seas, the shipwrecks, the protagonists - usually, or two friends, or a boy and a girl - the untouched nature, the tribes that populate the islands, the idols and the mysteries.

Story of English origin.

The scientist, his daughter and the young Claudio Reni are in Himalaya to reach the summit of Everest, but their expedition is soon hampered by the mysterious aircraft equipped with advanced weapons from an unknown city whose leader aspires to conquer the planet. The closing of the weekly at the thirteenth issue abruptly interrupts the series, which remains incomplete.

Long science fiction story written by Gian Luigi Bonelli with a troubled editorial history, see I Conquistatori dello Spazio for more info.

First table appeared on Audace N. 338 on a backcover and in color. It comes out for 41 issues in color, up to N. 378, before it is moved inside and in b/w for another 6 tables, (from N. 379 to N. 384) and concludes in black/red two tone in N. 385, where it is left incomplete. In 1943 the story was reprinted again in the Albo d'Oro Audace, but this time too it is incomplete. Finally, in 1950, the Audace publishing house reissues the Paparella plates in two issues of the Collana Ragno D’oro, setting the story no longer in 1950 but in 1960. With this edition, the story finally finds its conclusion,
