Jack Fish

Somewhere off Coney Island, paddling through the seaweed and Styrofoam is secret agent "Jack Fish." As an operative of the Elders of Atlantis, he is to locate their enemy and spear him. Staggering out of the water, Jack begins his odyssey into the strange city of New York. He's concerned about adjusting, but he discovers the Topworld is teeming with air-breathers who seem as alien as he feels. Jack Fish is just another dude from out of town, hanging out at the Mermaid Diner, scratching the webbing between his toes. J Milligan has been published in The New Yorker, XXL Magazine, and on word.com. He is co-author of a nonfiction book, "The Wisdom of Big Bird."
