Issue Notes

There are two printings of this comic. The first contained insufficient copyright information, leaving out the fact that it is copyright by E. C. Publications. It also claimed that the characters and trademarks were owned by DC Comics. When this was discovered, this issue was recalled and reprinted.

The second printing fixed the indicia, and also added William Gaines and Harvey Kurtzman to the credits on the inside back cover. The cover was unchanged.
This issue is a variant of Millennium Edition: Tales Calculated to Drive You Mad 1 (DC, 2000 series) [Direct Sales].
