Cover this time is a collage of work by Rudi Palais, who answers Snyder's favourite question, what he considers his best work. Inside is a page from a 1953 horror/sci-fi story that looks intriguing.

Alex Toth has a short note and illustration. Batton Lash and Stan Lee also have short notes:

 

"[Steve Ditko's] a most complex individual." -- Stan Lee

Longer letters from Hames Ware and Jerry DeFuccio on a variety of topics.

William Woolfolk has the second part of his auto-biography, "Perseverance", on his work at MLJ:

"For the uninitiated there was a clear distinction between AGHH and AARGH, scrupulously adhered to by most writers. AGHH was when the villain suffered serious but not decisive or mortal blow. AARGH was when it was time to call the ambulance or the morgue." -- William Woolfolk

Robert Kanigher provides an essay titled "Flare Path", with some thoughts on the "DC" war comics:

"DC had no more to do with the war comics than it had with the building of the pyramids" -- Robert Kanigher

He also goes in depth on one particular story, "The Glory Boys" (Our Army at War #235, 1971), a Toth illustrated masterpiece.
