Dr Tripps

Dr Tripps is not a happy man. With his cranium enhanced to bring him increased mental capacity, he deplores the rise of diesel power in the world, and longs for a return to the clean and simple energy of steam. But Dr Tripps is not one to idly stand by. Aided by Igor, his beautiful assistant, and a hybrid fly-monkey butler, he plots to pit Russia against Germany in a War to end all Wars. Luckily, a very British secret society has a hero in the form of Iron, a young man with a keen enthusiasm and a metal flying suit, who finds himself working with Nanny Honey from the mysterious NANI agency to stop Tripps and to set the world back on a more peaceful footing. But when monstrous creatures start to wreak havoc across the globe, can these two unlikely heroes succeed? Or will the power of steam win out over the advances of diesel?
