Disclose Notes: Credits from The Al Williamson Reader (Pure Imagination, 2008 series) #[nn] indicate that this story was inked by Wally Wood.

Most of the inking is by Williamson, with Wood inking the female faces (and perhaps bodies). So, for example, on page 5, where there are no females, there is no sign of Wood.

A good deal of the inks on the male bodies and faces are clearly by Frank Frazetta, with very little evidence of Williamson inks.
