Marvel's Man from Atlantis (1978)

I quite enjoyed this series.  I watched the entire run (I think), all four movies and 13 episodes.  I haven't seen them since 1978, though I watched bits and pieces of the show when it aired on Sci-Fi (I am pretty sure) back in the 90s.  They sure were desperate for content back then, weren't they?  A few of the episodes got a bit silly toward the end, but we were still desperate for any genre content in the 70s.  This is probably the show that made me a fan of Victor Buono as well. 

I had issue #6 from Marvel, that was the only one I ever saw.  From Wiki- In 1978, Marvel Comics published seven issues of a Man from Atlantis comic book, written by Bill Mantlo with art by Frank Robbins and Frank Springer.[20] back to me:  I knew it would never last, the show had gone off the air by the time the comic book was out.
