Indexer Notes

Capsule biographies of Joe Kubert, Robert Kanigher, Bob Haney, Bill Finer and Irv Novick. Kanigher's biography mistakenly states that he began editing G. I. Combat for DC in 1952. DC did not begin publishing G. I. Combat until #44 (January 1957). Issues 1-43 were published by Quality.
