Indexer Notes

Budiansky/Miller credits from The Marvel Comics Index (Olshevsky 1981, 99). Budiansky confirms his pencil credit and Miller inks. Official Index to the Marvel Universe (Jensen, et al. 2011) incorrectly credits Miller on pencils and Budiansky on inks.

Source for Novak letters credit is The Marvel Comics Index (Olshevsky 1981, 99).
