Indexer Notes
Captain Marvel (Billy Batson), not yet a DC character, appears on page one in an orange uniform, partially obscured by Lois' head. When the story appears in #104, Cap, (still not a DC character) is colored correctly. Schaffenberger was a former Marvel Family artist, and would be again.
