Disclose Notes: Canadian printing of EC comic, with Canadian advertisements. American comic published in September-October 1951.

Some colors in this issue were previously attributed to Marie Severin, but it is unlikely that Severin had begun coloring at EC when the EC’s Frontline Combat #2 was colored (Cassell 2012, 33–34 and 171). Severin is not known ever to have worked for Superior.
