Sub-Mariner and The Rocketeer

 

Hey, I'm not sure how a jet pack is supposed to operate underwater either.  That's just the kind of hook that would have had me picking this issue up off the stands. At least to flip through the pages, anyway!

Which comic company put out The Rocketeer comics ?

Great title and interesting premise. Sort of the old fish-out-of water theme in reverse!

@Kevin: he's creator (Dan Stevens)-owned. On that basis, he debuted at Pacific Comics, before traversing through Eclipse, Comico, and Dark Horse over to IDW Publishing.

Those first three companies, btw, are now defunct.

Unfortunately, Dave Stevens passed away back in 2008. His artwork was always outstanding, and he was a super nice guy.

A truly unsung hero, then. :-(

At least he saw his character made into a movie.
