Notes: From Joe Simon's collection there is a copy of a page of a script by Jack Oleck for "His Brother's Keeper" published in Astonishing #55. Since so few writers are known for the comics of those days I thought you might be interested. I have written up on it in my Simon and Kirby blog: http://kirbymuseum.org/blogs/simonandkirby/archives/748 - Harry Mendryk
