  1. I think these were in the Stingray comics of the 1990's weren't they? Sure I've read some of them.

    1. 1990's? Would that have been a reprint?
      That art style is so late 50's early 60's. The layout and art style is so reminscent of Dan Dare!

    2. Yep, it was a reprint, when the Anderson shows had a resurgence.

  2. It's from the first issue of Lady Penelope comic, published 22nd January, 1966. The Marina strip was later reprinted in the 90's Stingray comic. The artist, Rab Hamilton drew the Agent 21 strip in TV21. He also drew the adverts for the Stingray Arm Fins, and contributed to one of the Stingray story books. He also drew some of the Stingray strips in Countdown comic.
