In "Undersea Scavenger Hunt!" from Showcase #29 (1960), the Sea Devils dive into a high-stakes underwater race sponsored by a millionaire, hoping to win a new boat after losing their old one, the Sea Witch. Picking up strange relics like a life ring from the Marie Celeste and a jeweled sword, they face one mishap after another—until the prize boat is stolen by the Black Mantas. With quick thinking and teamwork, the Sea Devils board the vessel, rescue the sponsor, and claim victory. At the end, they wave off the reader with a final note: this was their last dive, so if you want more, send a card to Sea Devils, National Comics!
