And that brings us to the END of the adaptation! Here's an example of a scan after it's been rotated, cropped, and adjusted with "levels", "hue/intensity", "brightness" and "contrast"-- but before I did my painstaking restoration on it, for comparison.

There have been MANY comic versions of this story.  This one has been reprinted a number of times.  Here's some of the covers...

EN VERDENSOMSEILING UNDER HAVET  /
cover by (??)   (Hjemmet  /  Norway  /  1955)

20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA  /
cover by (??)   (Gold Key  /  December 1963)

EN VERDENSOMSEILING UNDER HAVET  /
cover by (??)   (Hjemmet  /  Norway  /  1976)

THE NEW MICKEY MOUSE CLUB FUNBOOK #11190  /
(Western  /  October 1977)

And finally, here's the cover of my copy. You can see why I had to look elsewhere to find a decent scan to clean up!
