Indexer Notes
The cover is from an unaltered stat per Nick Caputo, August 2014. Ger Apeldoorn says: "There has been a lot of discussion about this cover.The British version differs from the American one. When this occurs on other issues, it usually means the British version used the original stats before the American version was redrawn. In that case the original version may be by Bill Everett and the redrawing by Carl Burgos (unless Martin Goodman thought it was too dark and needed 'Burgonizing'). But redrawing usually only occurred because of Comics Code demands and there is nothing in the original that would suggest a reason for redrawing - in which case the theory is that some British artist redrew the cover when the stat was missing (although the stats for the interior were all available).
