| Notes | Continued from Captain Atom. There are conflicting accounts on the D.C.(Dave) Glanzman credit. Editor-in-chief Dick Giordano has said they asked Glanzman to use his name (as per Ditko's request to not be credited) and Dick said Glanzman agreed (Comic Book Artist #9). Ditko, in Robin Snyder's The Legend of the Blue Beetle (the Hero comics # 29, Autumn, 2019) wrote, "The Blue Beetle (my version) and the Question were my stories but there was "editing" and revising to some degree by someone. Giordano added the Glanzman name to my stories. I do not know why, when and where." |
