   By The Australian Panther
This issue has some significance as it contains the golden age origin of Dr Nemesis, who turned up in Marvel's X-MEN, same secret identity and appearance. And of course, he turned out to be a Mutant! Actually the name 'Dr Nemesis' has quite a varied history in Marvel.

Pages 2 & 3 are missing and instead we have pages 10 & 11 repeating. Does anyone have the version with pages 2 & 3?

NotesHe's called simply 'Lightning' throughout the story, except in the opening and closing captions. In addition to the signature on splash page, Jim Mooney signed in two other locations within the story. Once within the last panel on page 6 of the story, and again in the 4th panel on page 11 of the story. Both additional signatures are written as just "Mooney".

NotesThe final panel includes a request from the publisher for readers to write in and let them know if they want more Rx Dr Nemesis stories to appear within Lightning Comics. A previous indexer has noted that the story was signed by the artist (Harry Anderson), however I was unable to locate a signature on a scanned copy I read on Comicbookplus.
