Episode 175 - AWNAM: Sinister Six XV: An Alien From L.A. (1988)

Today's installment of Sinister Six takes us from the beaches of L.A. to the subterranean streets of Atlantis. Wanda Saknussemm, portrayed by Kathy Ireland, prays for something exciting to happen in her otherwise uneventful life. She soon receives a letter explaining that her father has disappeared while exploring some ancient ruins. (The Spell of the Unown parallels don't stop there.) While searching for her father, Wanda takes a tumble and finds herself in a hidden underground world. At the center of this world is the legendary city of Atlantis, which has become a totalitarian regime with plenty of cyberpunk trimmings. When it becomes apparent that her father has been captured by the Atlantean government, Wanda sets out to rescue him and find a way back to the surface. She's aided by a grumbling rogue named Gus, stalked by a mutant witch named Shank, and pursued by the villainous General Rykov. She also gets a love interest twenty minutes before the movie ends, but that's another matter entirely. So hop into your stupid scooty mobile, tune into Anime Was (Not) A Mistake, and hear how this *ahem* journey to the center of the Earth unfolds!
