The Sea Devils are a team of characters in comics published by DC Comics. They are a team of conventional (non-superpowered) adventurers, in undersea adventures. They were created by writer Robert Kanigher and artist Russ Heath (through issue #10). ==Fictional team biography== The team was introduced in ''Showcase'' #27 (July–August 1960) - #29 (November–December 1960). They then got their own title which lasted 35 issues (1961–67). The team consisted of leader Dane Dorrance, Biff Bailey, Judy Walton (Dane's girlfriend), and Nicky Walton (Judy's younger brother). During a one issue crossover story with the Challengers of the Unknown in ''Challengers of the Unknown'' #51, they fight the criminal group known as Scorpio. The team also has affiliated allies called the International Sea Devils: Molo from Africa, Sikki from India, and Miguel from South America. They also sometimes team up with a magically cursed, green skinned amphibian man they called the Man-Fish (Juan Vallambrosa)〔As seen in ''Sea Devils'' #22 (April 1965)〕 and a group of diving students called the "Tadpoles". More than ten years after the cancellation of their title, the team takes a small part in the defeat of an alien invasion in ''Showcase'' #100 (May 1978). Then, Dane and Judy (now married) help out Christopher Chance, the Human Target in ''Detective Comics'' #486 (October–November 1979). The Sea Devils (usually only Dane) later appear as part of the Forgotten Heroes team. They help in another alien invasion, this time by the Apellaxians. They assist in entrapping a group of 'Mercury' aliens, assisted by Aquaman and Cave Carson. This is set chronologically early in their career.〔"JLA: Year One" #11 (1998)〕 The Sea Devils resurface in ''Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis'' #42 as the de facto paramilitary guardians of Windward Home. Jim Lockhart the Red Torpedo, and Elsa Magnusson, widow of Mark Merlin are the administrators of Windward. The Sea Devils briefly appeared in Grant Morrison's ''Final Crisis'', where they were shown aiding an alternate-universe version of Aquaman in his battle against Ocean Master. The Sea Devils made their most recent appearance in the finale of ''Justice League: Cry For Justice'', where they are shown assisting Wally West and Jay Garrick in defusing a massive underwater explosive device planted by Prometheus.〔''Justice League: Cry For Justice'' #7〕 In ''The New 52'' (a reboot of the DC Comics universe), the Sea Devils (composed of Dane Dorrance and Nick and Judy Walton) appear as "eco-terrorists."〔''Aquaman'' #17〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sea Devils (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
