Disclose Notes: Nick Caputo notes that inks primarily appear to be by Neal Adams and Bob McLeod. Nick is unsure of Hama or Reese input. Previous indexer credited Dick Giordano as one of the inkers.

Despite art spotter's subjective opinions or uncertainty, this comic book records C. Bunkers as Embellishers and this index reflects what the comic book has published (6-23-2024).
