Disclose Notes: Cover previously credited to Norman Saunders per David Saunders, Norman Saunders' son, via e-mail (January 6, 2008). Changed to Allen Anderson per David Saunders, Allen Anderson's biographer and foremost authority on his work. There is some confusion on the Norman Saunders website, but this is from a new list made by David Saunders, with credits to all the painted covers of G.I. Joe (April 2011).
