“The Golden Monster!”

In "The Golden Monster!", four unlikely adventurers—SCUBA diver Dane Dorrance, aspiring actress Judy Walton, self-doubting Biff Bailey, and determined Nicky Walton—unearth a sunken galleon and must battle a monstrous sea creature, a giant octopus, and a ravenous shark. Written by Robert Kanigher and brought to life with dynamic art by Russ Heath (pencils and inks on both interior and cover), this 1960 Showcase #27 is a thrilling dive into underwater adventure, where teamwork and courage forge a new kind of hero team.
