| Notes | The artist must be Sparling. Comparing the faces of Chuckawalla, with large eyes, they are identical to Sparling's art in "Streaky Smith", "Calling all Boys" #10 (Parents Magazine). He also had many stories in the Warren horror magazines in the 60's, and his big eyed faces with heavy eyebrows are his best trademark. Art ID by Steinar Ådland, March 2011. |
