Title:
The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli Vol. 3
Publisher: Nemo Publishing, LLC
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.
