This is a story that is hugely reminiscent of the TV Comic tale Shark Bait. There are odd patches of invisible water which allow sea creatures to seemingly swim in mid-air. Barbara nearly gets eaten by a giant fish but it is apparently too stupid not to swim outside of it's natural habitat whereupon it dies. It would be like a fish on Earth just deciding to swim out on to land for no apparent reason. deltaandthebannermen View profile Like Liked 1 16 November 2024 · 44 words Review by Rock_Angel 1 Decided to do all 16 stories of these I think there basically Ian 1st and Barbara stories the final 2 retell the webplanet with just those 3 but over all there not the best but I think if I was from the 1960s I’d love them Rock_Angel View profile Like Liked 1 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
