American Comics Update: (Deep) Six Of The Best: The Sea Devils
*DC: The brainy leader, his best friend who’s big and strong, the blonde girl friend and her kid brother. Yes, of course it’s the Sea Devils. Debuting in Showcase in August 1960, over a year before their counterparts in Fantastic Four, Dane, Biff, Judy and Nicky thrilled us with undersea adventures for a very respectable 35 issues, plus their three try-out issues in Showcase. Art on issues up to #10, plus some later covers (as on #14 shown here) was by the superb craftsman Russ Heath, lending an air of quality to the series, although the art standards were reasonably strong after his departure.
