Notes:
Stan Lee says that he has been so long-winded recently writing about the new Marvel Calendar, the Origins of Marvel Comics book, the new Hitler documentary mag, Nostalgia Illustrated and the Treasury of Spider-Man that he has promised to cut back on his comments. He mentions that he had a great time lecturing at the University of New Hampshire, it was fun receiving the Popular Culture Association's Award of Excellence in Milwaukee and next month he will talk about the new live-action Spider-Man movie. Items about how Marv Wolfman is editing Dracula Lives, Vampire Tales and Crazy, Roy Thomas is editing Savage Tales, Savage Sword of Conan and Worlds Unknown (tentative title) with Tony Isabella, aided by Chris Claremont to edit the rest of the black and white magazines, there is a welcome to a new contingent of artists coming from the Philippines and they are Tony DeZuniga working on Dracula, the Golem and Ka-zar epics in Savage Tales, Alfredo Alcala working on Zombie, Savage Sword of Conan and other things, Sonny Trinidad working on Morbius and Dracula, Steve Gan working on Brak the Barbarian and Mary DeZuniga (Tony's wife) who keeps the artwork moving across the Pacific, David Anthony Kraft is now helping Don McGregor proofread the color comics (David is also a literary agent in his spare time), Irene Vartanoff is now overseeing the reprints and letters pages, Don Heck and Gil Kane's wife Elaine were in separate car accidents, Larry Hama (who shares a studio with Dick Giordano, Neal Adams, Ralph Reese and others) burned his fingers in a freak electrical accident (with Dick, Neal, et al stepping in to help him finish his current Iron Fist story), Jim Harmon (West-Coast Editor of the Monsters of the Movies magazine) was on a recent edition of the NBC-TV show "Knowledge" and a nationally-syndicated news program, a plug for the new comic Arrgh!, a reminder that the Mighty Marvel Calendar for 1975 just went on sale and a note that there's an extra item or three on the Bullpen Bonus Page, elsewhere in this issue.
Notes:
Items about how Steve Gerber and Len Wein asked to trade comics (Steve will now write The Defenders and Len will write Daredevil), Len Wein and Gerry Conway traded comics (Len will write Fantastic Four and Gerry will write Marvel Team-Up so that he can manage all of the Spider-Man stories but the ones that Jeanie Thomas does), Jeanie Thomas (Roy's wife) will script Spidey Super Stories, Planet of the Apes is hit with one issue (artwork by Mike Ploog and George Tuska with writing by Doug Moench), Savage Sword of Conan is a hit with one issue (artwork by John Buscema and Barry Smith), Deadly Hands of Kung Fu is going monthly because of unprecedented demand and the other magazines are also mentioned. A coupon for FOOM is also included.
