Everything I've seen of the non-existant newspaper strip Surf Hunter, then a coupla aquatic Sky Masters, then some samples of what these two woulda brought to the table. sigh
Underwater comics are some kind of lost art, which is weird to me. There are so many sci-fi/adventure possibilities. The Gil Kane Undersea Agents were really enjoyable as were the old Russ Heath Sea Devils. And did you ever see any of those few old Russ Manning issues of Sea Hunt? Very nice.
Yikes! You busted me on this one-got so busy with the day-to-day, I really cut corners on this post (and that's just with Wally Wood and Jack Kirby underwater stuff), but I'm right there with you on the "lost art" (lost at sea?). Undersea Agent (when done by Gil Kane and/or Wally Wood) is an all-time fav, and I tried a decent nod to Sea Devils in the wayback (that Triton cover is a pinnacle), but I never checked out the Sea Hunt comics, which is weird, as the tv re-runs was a great source of joy for me and the hous'n project posse
