Disclose Notes: Colored for the first time with this printing.

Page 4 is "new" - the art from the original Sabre's (Eclipse, 1978) title page has been inserted after page 3, and the text from the original story's page 2, panel 6, the text on page 3, both in and above panel 5 as well as one new sentence have been re-lettered and applied to the former title page illustration. This edit does not appear to have been carried over to the subsequent reprints of Sabre, the 10th and 20th anniversary editions.
