PAGE 43 (Two panels)
Panel 1: Probably a smaller inset panel. Turpentine, now in a short-sleeved shirt, being interviewed aboard ship (indicate by showing a porthole in the background).
Turpentine (1): This vessel has been specially outfitted for the mission. It carries a great variety of electronic, fishing, and whaling gear.
Translation (1): Ce navire a été spécialement équipé pour la mission.Il emporte une grande variété d’équipements électroniques, pour la pêche et la chasse à la baleine.
Panel 2: “Schematic” of the ship, showing the large central area converted to a giant tank, with a crane on part of the deck.
CAPTION – TURPENTINE NARRATING (2): The most important feature, though, is a giant marine tank in the middle of the ship, in which we hope to contain the creature after capturing it.
Translation (2): La caractéristique la plus importante, cependant, est un aquarium géant au milieu du navire, dans lequel nous espérons mettre la créature une fois capturée.

I don’t have a provenance on this image, but it has a 1960s’s men’s adventure magazine look to me, and seems likely to have accompanied a Nazisploitation story. (Or, possibly, its close comrade in fiction, the Commiesploitation story.) Reblogged from this 10 April 2016 post at Infernal Wonders.

Translation (2): Le parrain de l’opération leur a payé des billets de première classe.
Panel 3: Claudia in coach class, crammed into the middle seat of three between Hiram and another passenger. Hiram looks like he’s trying to get Claudia’s attention, perhaps even hitting on her. The other passenger, a FAT MAN, has gone to sleep. Claudia stares forward with Stoic resignation.

Eliza is wearing her typical thin cotton shirt and skirt, Daphne is in denim shorts and a T-shirt, and Claudia is in a conservative white button-down short-sleeved shirt and a dark skirt. All three are carrying bags, with Claudia’s being by far the largest.
