| Well, the credits here are all saying Samm Schwartz, but I don't see it. The bulk of the stories in this issue (although I can't say for the missing 11 pages) are drawn by Harry Lucey or I'll eat my shorts. Speaking of shorts, most of the shorter features are NOT drawn by Lucey. The only thing here I can positively identify as Samm is the 1-page feature "Hairstyles Au Go-Go". Some of the shorter filler pieces look like they might be done by Joe Edwards, or possibly Chic Stone, and there was at least one other story... possibly Al Hartley? Hard to say for sure. But most of the longer stories, beginning with the first two, are definitely by Harry Lucey. |
