Notes: Excerpt from a review of Weird Science from Jim Taurasi's Fantasy-Times, a letter from Jim Parry (about his organization, the Extra-Terrestrial Research Organization) and letters from K.L, Bob Humble, John B. Loeb (stating how space travel will not be possible due to pressure differences in space) and Ron Wheeler.

Appears to be reprinted from the U.S. publication (since the reply address is in New York City) but this needs to be confirmed from a copy of the original comic.
