Indexer Notes

Pencil credits from Michel Maillot via the GCD Error List, 25 June 2006. Numerous corrections by John Romita and possibly Marie Severin per Nick Caputo, 2006. Possible Colletta inks also per Nick, March 2019. In 2022 Franklin Colletta identified many of the inking styles that 'are all evident' of Vince Colletta.
