Sea Hunt #10 - Russ Manning art

Sea Hunt #10

Sea Hunt v1 #10, 1961 - In the opening tale, a wealthy and eccentric client hires Mike Nelson to teach skin diving aboard a recreational pirate ship. The unusual setting is a welcome change from previous issues, allowing Russ Manning the opportunity to draw more than the standard sea vessels. The artist's clarity of line and fluid layouts enhance both stories, but "Pirates' Holiday" stands out as the more enjoyable read. Like all the other issues in this series, a Lloyd Bridges photo cover ties the comic to the television series. This is 6 of 8 Sea Hunt issues by Manning. /// Manning gallery

Sea Hunt was a TV show that I didn't miss when I was a youngster. Russ Manning is a fine artist, too!
