A great story. I never noticed until now how some of the characters look like old horror actors Boris Karloff and Peter Cushing. :-)

Oh yes! Steranko blew away everyone in my comic reading circle when this stuff came out.

Thanks for all the good work you do.

Yeah, there was a lot of good or even great stuff at the time, but there just wasn't anything else like Steranko.

(Funny to remember how frequently Nazis figured as the villains back then. Of course, the war had ended less than a quarter of a century earlier, and some of the original Nazis would still have been in their fifties then.)

This story is quite an accomplishment, especially considering comic book deadlines.

Although Dan Adkins is credited as inker, in fact Steranko inked most of this issue himself.
