| Several sneaked signatures in "My Secret Husband" by Harry Harrison and Wally Wood. 'Wood' on typewriter, our page 23, panel 2. 'Wood and Har' on BG sign, p. 24, last panel. 'Harrison' written mirror reverse on bus bumper, p. 25, panel 1. Also two references to 'Kollar,' whoever that might be. Some in-jokes, too: A signed Hannes Bok print on the wall, p. 31 , pn. 1; a bespectacled man holding up an inking brush, p. 30, pn. 1; 'Palais de Joe' on the cabaret, p. 26, pn. 7; 'Abdul al Haz--' in the book, p. 26, pn. 4. The lads were having their fun. |
