Warren Sattler is up front this issue, with a new illustration of the character he did with Joe Gill in the 1970s for Charlton, YANG. He singles that out as the work he was most satisfied with in a long career, as it harkened back to the adventure strips of his youth that made him fall in love with cartooning.
There's also a sample of the long running Grubby comic strip Sattler did and a cute bit of super-hero art, a few samples of Barnaby from 1961 (one of the strips Sattler ghosted) and an appreciation by Jerry DeFuccio.
Joe Simon has a short note about Red Raven and swiping.
We also get a few pages of Charlton's SUNSET CARSON comic from the 1950s, with Mario DeMarco writing about his work on the feature and other aspects of his career.
Joe Gill also writes about the pace of writing for Charlton.
Steve Ditko closes the issue with the "The Rationalizers", the third and final part of his series on "The 'Stolen Art Page' Problem", later reprinted in Avenging World [2002]..
"It is actually a negative claiming to be a superior positive, but endless zeroes still add up to nothing." -- Steve Ditko
