the Alchemist SYLVESTER TURVILLE has been there
for over 2 centuries trapped by one of his own spells!

of the weirdest,whimsical adventures ever committed to paper!
The series ran as a comic strip until 18th May 1974 , but apart
from a few reprints
featured all-new adventures in various Annuals right up to 1979!

of the series were
shared between FRANK S.PEPPER and KEN MENNELL
