A color comic labeled “MadScott.” Two small green, squid-like creatures wearing old-fashioned deep-sea diving suits with round glass helmets stand underwater. Fish swim nearby, and a sunken shipwreck rests in the background on the ocean floor. One says, “The vacation flyer made this place sound so much nicer.” The other replies, “70% water sounds great until you see what they have been hiding down here.” A caption below the panel reads: “Gulf of hidden bodies is more like it.” The joke darkly suggests the ocean is concealing unpleasant or grim things beneath the surface.
