Issue Notes

The on-sale date is the publication date reported in the U. S. Copyright Office filing.

An earlier indexer provided an on-sale date of November 9. No citation was given, although other indexers speculate that it may come from a listing in the fanzine The Comics Reader.

Some (all ?) editions came with a 4 page color Mark Jewelers insert.
