Disclose Notes: James Sherman is credited on the cover as doing this story with Roger Stern, but Steve Bissette actually did the art for that story due to Sherman not meeting the deadline.
It is also dedicated to Alan Weiss and makes a reference to the strip "Heroes of the 70s", that Alan produced for the March 1972 issue of Esquire magazine.
