Deep Sea Dive: a personalized comic book gift
For the certified diver, the aquarium regular or the person who still talks about that one snorkeling trip. This story sends them down in a brass-helmet diving suit to the bottom of the ocean, where a sunken ship, a glowing sea creature and a very large octopus are all waiting. Every panel shows their face behind the glass: cool, curious, occasionally panicking. If they have a real dive spot, a favorite fish or a dive buddy, put them in. It is a personalized book for adults that reads like their dive log, with more tentacles.

Questions about this comic
Can their real dive buddy come along?
Yes. Mention their dive buddy, partner or the instructor who signed off their certification in the 'anything special' field, with a line about how they know each other, and they can join the dive in the story.
Can it be suspenseful without being scary?
Yes. The book stays within PG-13, with cartoon peril and no gore, so it reads as an adventure, not a horror story. Tell us in your answers if you want more suspense in the dark depths, or something sillier, like a sea monster that just wants a hug.
