Lost in the frozen Polar wastes, an explorer huddles in his shelter, typing with freezing fingers, the story of his lonely, extraordinary exploits, preparing to send the story to a nephew he has never seen. With his only companion the tortoise-like mutant Jackson, Uncle has gone in search of his destiny: the awesome and mysterious White Lion.
