    Totally useless as usual—without a “zoom” version the resolution is so low there’s no way for me to read any of the words.

    yeh, I have the means to enlarge the screen shot, but that doesn’t make the words intelligible , might as well be in another language.

    I’ll give it a go.

    Panel 1: Annie by Jay Maeder & Alan Kupperburg

    “Sit, Red Rover and stay! Let us peer into the mysteries of the sea…”

    Panel 2: Whirr! Whirr!

    Panel 3: Deep in the sea, robot eyes scan Doctor Dark’s sunken submarine – and robot ears record the ghastly beating of his evil heart -Thup-thup! Thup-thup! Whirr! Whirr!

    Panel 4: — as Red Rover hovers overhead.“Very clear signals!”

    “Not a breach in that vessel anywhere! She’s sealed up tight!”

    Panel 5: “Kamkaze crew, eh? Dutifully put their tub down — then settled in to starve….”

    “Or swallowed poison perhaps — All for the greater glory of Doctor Dark’s immortality…”

    Panel 6: “But I don’t understand why the Russians are sitting so far off the hulk.”

    “You’re right, Admiral! You’d think they’d be right on top of her!”

    Panel 7:

    Panel 8: “Wow! That answers that! Who wants to get near that big boy?”

    “God Lord, Gilbraith! Look at the size of him!”

    Panel 9: Whirr! Whirr!

    Panel 10: “Amelia! He’s working! He’s on duty!”

    “Yeah! Leave it to Doctor Dark to post a faithful giant crab on his tub…”

    I missed the caption under the screenshot of the Russian submersible in panel 6. Just couldn’t see it well enough.

    Wouldn’t the “Deadliest Catch” guys love that crab!!!

    Now I can see why Amelia constantly wears dark glasses; Apparently, with ‘her eyes’ she’s quite sensitive to normal light-level situations, for which, from me, she gets a “pass”…Along with everyone else, I cast a curse, a pox and a hex on the Powers That Be that don’t ‘allow’ the magnifying option on this fine work. Fume, snort, mumble, etc.
