Sea Ghost Action Figure - In Stores Now

The aquatic superhero everyone loves has come to life!  The new Sea Ghost action figure is now available in stores and can also be ordered directly through Nemo Publishing.  

Read reviews here and here.

Named “one of the coolest” superheroes of the seven seas by Robot 6, Sea Ghost was first seen in Jay Piscopo’s The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli.  He quickly became a fan favorite, appearing in his own comic book, Sea Ghost #1: The Sea Ghost in the Machine.  Now he’s available as an 8” action figure.  

Distributed by Diamond Comic Distributors (Diamond Code: JUL142068), this collectible "maker" action figure is created in a retro-style reminiscent of those made by the Mego Corporation in the 1970s.  This figure was designed by Jay Piscopo and handcrafted with assistance from Paul "Dr. Mego" Clarke.

This 8” figure is packaged in a sealed clam shell and features artwork by Sea Ghost creator Jay Piscopo.  It can be ordered through Diamond Comic Distributors (Diamond Code: JUL142068) or purchased directly through Nemo Publishing at http://captneli.shipyardshopping.com/index.html. 

Sea Ghost is an aquatic super hero with a long career fighting evil above and beneath the waves.  The character is an homage to golden age comic book superheroes.

"This is a fast paced adventure that goes from the sea bottom to the planet surface to outer space. The main thing about this comic is that it is just plain fun to read." 

Title: The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli Vol. 3

Creator/Writer/Artist: Jay Piscopo

Price: $ 9.99 US

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Gorgeous illustrations of sea vessels and one huge robot make this a visual delight to behold. The robot is menacing.

Japan's special defence force is colorful team that uses energy to attack. The Photon Knights are like the Power Rangers. The illustrations are dynamic. Together they form Quasar Ace.

Torpedoman looks like a cool hero. He looks a lot like the Rocketeer. Also the Sea Ghost is illustrated in a simple designed suit that looks great. There are lots of great characters but they need to be explored more.

Capt'n Eli is not used at all at the start of this comic. He is the star and should have been used some.

Lord Hydro is the villain here and he has an army to do his bidding. It is a most impressive army.

The underwater sea creatures are wonderfully illustrated and have a realistic look. The technology has a futuristic appearance but also a underwater design to most of it.

Captain Eli gets some extra gear that amps up his combat abilities. Than that is amped up even more.

Ok super-heroes just keep coming out of the woodworks. There is no way you can keep track of them all. Even two Commander X's and Nemo.

This is a fast paced adventure that goes from the sea bottom to the planet surface to outer space. The main thing about this comic is that it is just plain fun to read.

The backup story is filled with tons of super-heroes as well. They battle a menace of the Galaxy Beast. Nice old style art.

Included in this comic are some gorgeously drawn pin-ups.
