Indexer Notes

The reprint in The Life and Death of Ferro Lad incorrectly credits Swan and Klein with pencils and inks on this story. Swan and Klein were Shooter's regular collaborators following this story, but they did not work on this story, Shooter's first. We formerly credited Moldoff with only inks or with finishes, but as Glen Cadigan pointed out, via the GCD Error Tracker, comparison of Shooter's layouts with the final product shows that Moldoff should be credited with pencils
