"THE RAMBLER" "The Yeti Hunters" - Part Three Post One

This opening to the third episode really turns what had been a jolly(ish) mountaineering adventure with monsters, into a gun-toting tale of espionage, and as a result within the space of just four frames the yeti are revealed to be nothing more than camouflaged Chinese soldiers, Sir Edmund Hillary a British spy, and Desmond seemingly a traitor..!

I was very happy with the design for the Chinese uniforms, complete with their famous red star, and as always with such successful 'costumes', the People's Liberation Army would suddenly feature in a few more of my serials; such as the "Heroes Of Godwinson" final adventure "Lon Chaney"...

Threatened with imminent death, the Rambler discovers that Desmond's treachery isn't as simple as it seems, and that behind all these abominable machinations stands an old enemy from one of his predecessor's final adventures...
