Planet of the Damned

Planet of the Damned was a science fiction adventure story by writer R.E Wright and artist Lalia about a group of castaways from the 20th Century trapped on a hellish 'Ab-world' in another dimension when their Tri-Star jet flies through the Bermuda Triangle. Thr group (including writer Stan Hackmann and self centred businessman Lew Kerr), rescued from the grotesque 'Ab-humans' upon their arrival by the time lost Bos'un Jake Flint of the brig 'Gallantine' (who was stranded there 150 years earlier), place themselves under Flint's command as he spends the next few weeks trying to get them to safety in the aptly named 'Sanctuary'. The strip was extremely violent and highly imaginative in the ways it devised to gradually kill off the members of the unfortunate group, including acid rain, a variety of fruit which cause anyone who eats it to literally drown in its juice, a group of Hell's Angels and an insane U-Boat Captain still fighting World War II. The series lasted for only ten episodes before ending with the survivors of Flint's band returning safely to Earth.
