Von Krantz, savant infirme à demi fou, a inventé l'Annulator, procédé capable de désamorcer les armes nucléaires, ce qui ne manque pas de susciter la convoitise de puissants états (les États-Unis et la Russie) comme d'étranges organisations (les Chauves et les Asiatiques de Soleil Noir-Orient).

Sa fille Sylvaine et son assistant Yvan sont enlevés pour servir de monnaies d'échange aux assaillants impatients de s'approprier les plans du fantastique Annulator.
