Indexer Notes

Possible Englehart inks per Nick Caputo, Jan 2011. Nick notes, "While Englehart is known as a writer, early in his career at Marvel he was a utility guy, doing some coloring and penciling, per his website. Englehart has listed Combat Kelly # 3 as his inking, and I suspect he inked this cover as well."
