Avant Blake et Mortimer, Edgar P. Jacobs a imaginé une première bande dessinée devenue mythique - Le Rayon U. En voici enfin la suite, par le légendaire Jean Van Hamme lui-même.
L'expédition Marduk est rentrée victorieuse en Norlandia, avec un précieux échantillon d'Uradium. Il ne reste plus au professeur qu'à tester son révolutionnaire Rayon U en conjonction avec le minerai miracle. Mais en Austradie, l'ennemi héréditaire, on ne l'entend pas de cette oreille. Le vil capitaine Dagon n'est pas parvenu à empêcher Marduk de trouver le gisement d'Uradium ? Qu'à cela ne tienne - l'armée impériale Austradienne n'a qu'à en prendre possession militairement - et tant pis si le peuple du prince Nazca vit dessus!
