With the Professor and Joan kidnapped, the villains race to the present-day version of Rome in search of the lost treasure, setting off a high-stakes chase across time. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by E. E. Hibbard, this thrilling chapter blends pulpy adventure with early superhero time-travel intrigue, all rendered in the distinctive style of Hibbard, whose pencils and inks define the cover and interior alike.
