Nous continuons à suivre les aventures du Professeur Challenger, ce personnage tonitruant, irascible et imbu de lui-même inventé par Conan Doyle. Challenger n'a pas que des défauts. Il est aussi brillant, courageux et loyal et ses précédentes aventures lui ont assuré la fidélité indéfectible de compagnons pourtant à l'origine bien mal disposés à son égard.

Le Professeur Challenger est un personnage hors du commun. Un torse de barrique surmonté d'une énorme tête barbue, de formidables épaules et une voix, beuglante et rugissante, à faire trembler les murs : même son apparence physique est à couper le souffle ! Grossier, brutal, vaniteux, c'est un savant visionnaire mais controversé, qui n'hésite pas à en venir aux mains pour défendre ses thèses.
