Disclose Notes: A number of uncredited inkers worked on this book to beat the deadline of which Arthur Adams sequence is the most recognizable.

Per Stuart Neft via the GCD Error Report #11231 (27 August 2017), Neft owns the original art for page 30 and it was penciled by Arthur Adams and inked by Mike Mignola. It is possible that the pair also did another page for this story, but which page is not yet known.
