Présentation:

An airplane is stolen by ancient Greek soldiers. One is captured and the Challengers brought in. He´s from Ancient Greece ! and wants to return to the Island of the Wizard. The Challengers fly there and meet an opportunist named Darius Tiko who experiments with time travel. He disappears in a time cube. The Challengers follow in a smaller model. To ancient Greece. A fight proves fruitless. Rocky smokes a cigar and terrifies the warriors. Ace and Rocky grab a chariot and barrel away to the missing plane. They fly, but the plane leaks oil and they crash in flames – giving birth to the legend of Phaeton who rode across the sun ! Meanwhile, Prof and Red went in Ancient Egypt, and end up slaves building a pyramid. They buffalo the locals, escape, and rescue Ace and Rocky from an army of Greeks. Ace deduces Tiko visited oracles to predict the future. Time-tripping to the 15th Century, the Challengers interview Nostradamus. Yes, Tiko took notes and set his time cube for 3,000 AD ! Journeying to the future, the Challengers catch Tiko loading up on futuristic weapons and inventions. Tiko plans to conquer the 20th Century ! All get nailed by the United Earth Police, who take them to « the judge », a robot mind-reader that pronounces the Challengers innocent and Tiko guilty. Deported to the past, (with one side trip : see Notes), the Challengers and Tiko escape the island just as the booby-trapped time cube explodes in a fireball !
