Colors: Marie Severin ?
Letters: Morrie Kuramoto
Notes: Based on the TS signature, Michel Faber, via the GCD Errors List (13 June 2006) suggests Herb Trimpe as penciller and Marie Severin as inker. Henry R. Kujawa also thinks the "S" is typical for Marie Severin work (7 August 2006). Nick Caputo notes that both artists often worked in tandem on covers, so this could be a combination of the two (Trimpe breakdowns; Severin finished art, etc). Previous indexer credited Tom Sutton.
