After his family was massacred by the traitorous Arkabad, Dr. Mystery sought his revenge. He traveled the world, fighting evil, especially in Paris, where he met the young orphan, Cigale, who gave him the nickname Dr. Mystery. Eventually he returns to India, a master of science, wielding amazing technology. He is accompanied by his new fiancée Na-Indra, and the young Parisian Cigale. Dr. Mystery travels in the “Electric Hotel”, a large, amphibious vehicle capable of both underwater and over land transportation. He also carried “cyanide pistols.” He seems to have a degree of mastery over science and mysticism.
