Indexer Notes

We originally had Ray Willner on pencils and Reed Crandall on inks, but Martin O'Hearn points out that the layouts are distinctively Crandall's, and the inks do not resemble Crandall's known inks of the same time period.

Signed on splash page by Ray Willner only. This may indicate that Crandall was ghosting the pencils for Willner.
