Dr. Thomas Redfield was a physicist working on a cyclotron at his private laboratory in New York, when his rich fiance Peggy Foster showed him plans drawn by the prophet, Nostredamus, for a time machine. Although skeptical at first, Redfield used the plans to improve his cyclotron, and discovered that it actually was a time machine. He had many adventures through time and space with Foster. They met legendary figures of the past, including Nostredamus, King Arthur, Anne Bonny, and King Midas, among others. They traveled to prehistoric times, to the planet Venus, and witnessed the sinking of Atlantis. Redfield was often “forced” to make out with historical and intergalactic beauties to get out of mortal danger, which threatened to put him in mortal danger with his fiance. He was an exceptional fighter, and often brought a gun on his expeditions. The time machine was soon turned into a rocket ship capable of interplanetary travel, and it could be remote controlled by Redfield.
