Creig Flessel provides a Sandman drawing and a short biographical essay in "Apples and Comic Books".

Flessel also leads the letter column in Under the Gun, with additional letters from Dick Sprang, Robert Rowe, Bob Haney, Rich Morrissey and Dick Ayers.

Robin Snyder takes a page to address some on-going issues, including communications with Eclipse, the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame not notifying inductees Steve Ditko and Alex Toth.

On the topic of "Who Created The Challengers of the Unknown", writer George Kashdan shares some recollections.

Dick Ayers writes "Fun", about his work method in his first decade in comics, and includes a drawing of Jimmy Durante, who he drew for Magazine Enterprises in 1948-1949.

Sam Glanzman provides a very entertaining look at his long career in comics, with a sample of his early work in Fly-Man and discussion about Charlton, Joe Kubert, his work and Marvel and then-current work at 4Winds.  There's also a brief bibliography of some of his major works and a funny comic strip in a different style than his usual.
