Notes |
Page 4 contains a reference to Herbie Popneckner, an error attributed in #13 "Here's Herbie!" (letters) to "crazy mixed-up letterer Ed Hamilton". (Ed Hamilton is listed as an ACG letterer 1961-62 on p. 136 of "Forbidden Adventures" by Michael Vance, but obviously lettered for longer.)
This is the first issue in which the credits are spiced up.
Story: Shane O'Shea, who else? /
Art: Ogden Whitney, of course!
