These are the voyages of the Hunter I, it's ongoing mission...
...to fill four pages per issue of Gold Key's Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.
You'll see the continuation
tomorrow, unlike the original readers of this story in 1968 who had to wait
three months for the next four-page chapter (
VttBotS was a
quarterly book)!
The
Hunter I crew had adventures set in the near-future of
the late 1990s-early 2000s, much like then-current films like
Green Slime,
Wild Wild Planet, and
Battle in Outer Space.
With only four pages per issue, there was little character development (or even names) for the crew, but lots of action!
This tale from
VttBotS #12 (1968) was written by Dick Wood (who wrote the entire series) and illustrated by
Nevio Zaccara (who remained the strip's artist until the final chapter).
