This is a partial reprint of Captain Fearless #2. All of the stories in here appeared in that comic (along with about 30 additional pages of stories, since the page count dropped from 68 to 36 pages). |
|
If this is a real comic book, where are the indicia? |
|
None of the so-called Holyoke One-Shots (this is just a fan-applied series title, each one was numbered consecutively but had individual titles) had indicia. In fact, it's not even sure that "Holyoke" was the company that issued them, but since the original source of the stories was Holyoke, that's what they're called. This is an odd "mystery" comic book series. |
