| Notes | Roy Thomas and Craig Delich agree this cover was done by Bill Everett. Bill Everett Archives #2, Blake Bell editor, lists this cover as being H. G. Peter, which was the previous credit given. Keith Chandler : Comparing this with the covers of the following two issues, art could well be by editor Stephen Douglas, who displayed a knack for copying the style of both Everett and Peter. |
