Disclose Notes: Pencils and inks credit from Ger Apeldoorn via the GCD Error Tracker (http://errors.comics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8699). Kurtzman imitation. Jack Butterworth credited Charles "Colly" Stern with the pencils and inks (2005-10-24); Stern was a former roommate of Harvey Kurtzman, suggesting a reason why this work resembles Kurtzman.

This story directly references Kurtzman's story, "The Mysterious Ray From Another Planet," which is found in Weird Fantasy #4. The protagonists from "Television Ghost" are taken directly from the EC story, though not directly swiped. Instead, this is a completely new story based on Kurtzman's visuals, and is such a complete re-creation of Kurtzman's style that one of Kurtzman's former students, cartoonist Batton Lash, believes that Kurtzman actually drew this story, and, if that is true, then this could be a "lost" Kurtzman story. This information added by Craig Delich 2013-8-1 from article by Michael Gilbert in Alter Ego #119 (August 2013).
