Jerry Drago

Jerry Drago and Jill Johnson are abducted by a Venusian doctor, who returns with them to Venus as specimens for study. The average life span of a Venusian being thousands of years, the doctor increases the pair’s life span to an “indefinite” date. Jerry and Jill desire to return to Earth. Gaining the trust of the doctor, they manage to abscond with supplies and, eventually, a spaceship. The pair escape. Back on Earth, their story is scoffed at and dismissed. To make matters worse, the spaceship disappears. Regardless, Jerry and Jill plan to use the alien technology they had learned to improve the lot of mankind.
