Tom Lammers: Story Information
Notes: Though unsigned, this was mostly drawn by Jay Scott Pike, Casey's regular artist. However, the full-page splash is a slightly modified version of the cover which was signed by John Severin. The only difference is that the central figure of Casey has been enlarged a bit for the splash. I wonder if there was some Code-related problem that called for a quick re-do??? - Tom Lammers

Another possibility is that this entire story is a last minute quick replacement for a no-show. Compared with all the other J.S. Pike stories in this title, this job seems incredibly rushed and unfinished. Add the reuse of the Severin cover to flesh it out and it feels like a a real rush job. - JVJ
