In the year 2025 a huge aircraft rose from its moorings, bearing Julian 5th into one of the greatest series of adventures that ever befell a man.

Then a descendant of Julian 5th appeared and led the hosts in the last great battle that freed the earth of its conquerors. The story is full of colorful, weird and spectacular scenes and rapid and thrilling action.
