** Ted Benoit (who drew ''The Francis Blake Affair'' and ''The Strange Encounter'') pitched a story provisionally called ''Resurrection'' that revealed just how Olrik survived the nuclear annihilation of Basam Damdu's palace. It featured Olrik as the only survivor on an irradiated "ghost ship", the post-war ruins of London, and a climax involving US atomic bomb testing in the Pacific. The editors opted not to go ahead with it (and ultimately another story gave a different account of his survival), but Benoit did draw a cover as a commission for a fan.

Cinebook has put out a number of both Jacobs and post-Jacobs stories, although for some reason they've put the Jacobs stories out of order, and have yet to publish ''The Secret of The Swordfish'', even though some stories reference it quite heavily. Then again, at three volumes, can you blame them?

* OvertookTheManga: Only one of the continuation albums (''The Francis Blake Affair'') was adapted when the series was done adapting the Edgar Pierre Jacobs canon, due to the others not existing at the time it was made (the next one, ''The Voronov Plot'', was published in 2000, over one year after the end of the animated series). As a result, the remaining episodes are original stories.
