Comment(s):

The story occurs in the 18th Century, the present day and an indeterminate point in the future, late 21st / early 22nd Century.
Though Dane Dorrance of the Sea Devils appeared out of the blue last issue, somehow in 18th Century Poland, he's not seen again when he and his fellow heroes are sent to the future.
