Indexer Notes

Frazetta credits from Greg Theakston's "Frank Frazetta Comic Art Bibliography". Edited by Per Sandell.

Script previously credited to "Gardner Fox ?", but Frazetta himself told Robert R. Barrett that "Ray Krank, who was also the editor at Magazine Enterprises, wrote the scripts." ("The Complete Frazetta White Indian" (Vanguard Productions, 2011), page 7).

There is a dating anomaly here. The story is set in 1754, but the origin story in the previous issue has 1770 as the date of action. Possibly 1774 was meant.
