| Comic Story | Venom and the Black Boas Attack (12 pages) |
| Featuring | Pyroman |
| Credits | Pencils: Ken Battefield | Inks:? [as AA] (signed) |
| Content | Genre: Superhero | Characters: Venom (villain); Black Boas [Diedrich; Voss; others] (villains, introduction); Nazis (villains) |
| Notes | Artist previously identified as Jack Binder. Many signs of Ken Battefield in the art, but he is either one of several pencillers (a shop job), or has one or more inkers who could be signing as "AA". Identical "AA" signatures can be found on the splash pages to Pyroman in America's Best Comics #5 (also with art by Ken Battefield) and The Tarantula in DC's Star Spangled Comics #17. No Battefield art is apparent in that story which makes me believe that "AA" is the inker. |
