Disclose Notes: Art identification based on Flame stories in Wonderworld Comics #24, Big 3 #3, and Wonderworld Comics #26, which were confirmed to have been drawn by Larry Antonette based on his personal records. The style in which the “Basil Berold“ pen name is signed is also similar to Larry Antonette‘s usual signature, such as the signatures signed with his own name in the Sub-Zero Man stories published by Novelty in Blue Bolt #3 and 4, with particular similarities on how he writes the word “By”.
