....I'll just add that the adventure Neptune had with pirates was over two centuries earlier, when the old man looked like he was around The Shark's present age!
Now take it from there...
C'mon, you can't tell me you saw the Martian invasion plotline coming!
Remember, this was the beginning of the Golden Age of comics!
A creative working on these magazines could do almost anything, since there weren't any real "rules" or tropes or cliches to adhere to, so combining pirates with mutants with Martians was just another way to fill six to eight pages!
Writer/artist Lew Glanzman threw everything but the kitchen sink into this tale...because he could!
That was one of the kool aspects of those stories, and it's one of the reasons I and many others still love them!
We hope you've enjoyed this look at comics' first aquatic super-hero>
If reader response is good, we can present more time-lost tales of The Shark during next year's @SharkWeek !
It's up to you!
