Disclose Notes: Contains the exact interior content of Huey, Dewey and Louie Junior Woodchucks (Western, 1966 Series) #2 (August 1967), including non-character related editorial features and ads. Cover is modified to present the "Top Comics" logo, rather than the "Gold Key" brand and the typical "Huey, Dewey and Louie Junior Woodchucks" series title logos. Beyond that, the cover illustration is also the same.

No cover price is displayed on the issue, leaving some flexibility in the cover price charged. Merchants have been known to place "19¢" (or other price) stickers on the covers of such books, which normally sold for 12¢.

Drawings of various monsters, with accompanying descriptions, provided editorially – rather than reader-drawn submissions. Between pages 4 and 5 of previous story. Middle left page of centerfold.

For reasons unknown, Gold Key Comics (like Huey, Dewey and Louie Junior Woodchucks in 1967) that were not offered on a subscription basis did not contain the same six pages of “Gold Key Comics Club” editorial content seen in other titles – but instead offered six pages of material in a similar vein to occupy those same pages (the four pages of the centerfold, as well the last two interior pages).

This material was produced editorially, as opposed to “reader contributions”. So, where readers contributed their own drawings of monsters to a Gold Key Comics Club feature titled “Reader’s Page: Monsters”, we have an editorially-produced page of four illustrations of monsters, each with their own unique characteristics described in accompanying text. As this was somehow tied to mail subscriptions, perhaps it resulted from another of those “arcane postal regulations”. © 1967, Western Publishing Company, Inc.

Used in lieu of a regular Gold Key Comics Club feature. Between pages 4 and 5 of previous story.
