Challengers of the Unknown
Living on Borrowed Time…
A plane crash in a remote area and four individuals who should not have survived it, do.
Realizing that the plane crash should have killed them and there was no logical reason why they still lived, the four men band together to take on The Unknown.
- Olympic Wrestler Lester “Rocky” Davis
- Skilled Scuba Diver “Prof”essor Walter Haley

Through many adventures the four Challengers would survive ever increasing odds and eventually a fifth member, Dr. June Robbins would join the group after the Challengers were called in to deal with an Artificial Intelligence computer she had built that went crazy.
