Sixty years of the Flash (Barry Allen) celebrated with the classic cover designed by Robert Kanigher and drawn by Carmine Infantino and Joe Kubert.

Natalie Kirsten (aka Natalie Krigstein) has a short autobiography about her time writing comics for Timely, National, Prize and others from 1949 to 1954, with a bibliography of her known work, including stories with publications not yet identified.  A script page from such a story, "Skin Deep", is included.

Part 4 of Gary Poole's bibliography looks at 1967 and part 38 of Carl Wessler's "Upon Reflection" looks at 1956 and work for Timely.

Steve Ditko's "A Wider Context" provides an alphabetical list of characters he worked on outside of the four years from 1962-1966 that most concern "CBFs" (comic book fans).

The passings of Jeremy Dale, Greta Gattel and Jay Maeder are noted and letters from Gary Poole, Robert Rowe, Sharon Levine, Thomas W. Scott III, John Wells, Dave Sim and Chet Cox.

Longtime Archie Comics artist Joe Edwards covers this issue with a nice pencil sketch of the company's title character along with the Edwards creation Li'l Jinx.  

Edwards provides a short letter about the early days at Archie as part of a long Under The Gun column.

The heart of this issue is a look at Kanigher's "Savage World" concept with editor Joe Kubert from the 1970s, an unpublished series about two naturalists who roam the world, framing stories about the various creatures they encounter (or encounter evidence of). 

Doug Wildey drew at least two issues, and this newsletter presents the Kanigher scripts for two pages of a story about elephants, along with Wildey's almost finished pages. Great stuff.

Additional letters by John Wells, Carol Newman, Marc McMurray, Daniel Tesmoingt, Jim Amash
