Indexer Notes
Letter from Earl Dill, Jr., Michael Jesky, and Terry Morrison; includes The Mighty Marvel Checklist and Special Announcements Section. Jesky comments, "I'm a real old fan of this mag and also of your other two western books, Kid Colt and Two-Gun Kid. I even read books of the 'old' Two-Gun Kid before you remade his character and put a mask on him." Sequence added per Tom Lammers, June 2009.
