Issue Notes

Editors Jann Jones and Ian Sattler are mentioned in the credits, but it is not clear just what they are responsible for here. Jann Jones was editor of the rest of the series, so presumably she may be responsible for whatever parts of the never-released #6 have been used in this issue.

Indexer Notes

The cover gag has Ambush Bug about to be burned at the stake with copies of the never-released Ambush Bug: Year None #6, with the Darwyn Cooke cover, as fuel for the fire.

Synopsis
A detective tries to find out whatever happened to Ambush Bug: Year None #6 and discovers that Dan Didio finally got his desire and banished Ambush Bug from the DC Universe again.

Indexer Notes

Baltazar and Franco are probably primarily responsible for the framing device: pp. 1, 3, 4, the first panel of 5, 6, 13, the first 2/3 of 16, 18, the first 2/3 of 20, and the last 2/3 of 21. The rest (other than the credits page) is probably revised Giffen-Fleming-Milgrom material from #6.
