Notes: I just acquired a copy of the Timely "Blackstone" #2 from a magician (now 90 years old) who was a neighbor and friend of Gibson. This copy is coverless and was never stapled. I don't know if this is some sort of pre-publication comp copy for Gibson (perhaps someone else has a different take?), but it would be my guess. - Ken Quattro.
