Notes

• Gamma Ray is of course meant to be a stand-in for Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner. Due to the Grantray-Lawrence studio (who animated the 1966 Sub-Mariner animated show) still owning the rights to the character, Gamma Ray was crated as a replacement for Namor in an adaptation of the main plotline from Fantastic Four #4.
