Don Mangus discusses the original art for a 1947 Simon&Kirby cover that had recently been for sale, inscribed to Dave Wigransky, an early comics fan who wrote a piece for The Saturday Review of Literature in 1948 defending comics against attacks of contributing to juvenile delinquency.
The S&K original art appears on the back.
There's also a look at the editorial staff of Western through the years.
Part 32 of "Just Imagine", the on-going Paul S. Newman bibliography, just has a short section, with one Dell book from 1962.
Notes on the passing of Valerie Barclay, Alice Cobb, Shel Dorf, Eric Freiwald, Irving Tripp, Geroge Tuska and Nevio Zeccara.

A tribute to frequent contributor Creig Flessel, who passed away in 2008. Some words of remembrance from Robin Snyder, a page of Flessel's handwritten letter (published in DETECTIVE COMICS #512 in 1982), some samples of his published pages from NEW COMICS (1936) and YOUNG ROMANCE (1975), a drawing of Flessel with Vin Sullivan, Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson and Whitney Ellsworth.
Under the Gun also has letters from Steve Ditko (commenting briefly on Jack Burnley) and Bob Heer.
