Story Notes
Part three of Mr. Kline story in Daredevil. In the verbal snafu department: there is a string of dialogue in the story where Daredevil says, "Who does your dialogue? Jane Austin? Ooops. Hope I haven't insulted anyone's literary tastes." Of course, the irony is that literary sensibilities may have been offended because the author's name is actually spelled "Austen".

Credits

- Pencils: Gene Colan
Story Notes
Roy's Rostrum replaces Stan's Soapbox in this installment. Roy Thomas says Stan is working on a screenplay with director Alain Resnais and that Roy gets to write the whole Bullpen Page. This month several titles are going double-size to 52 pages for 25 cents. Stan had a speaking engagement at Boston University and was on Alex Bennett's WPLJ-FM talk show. WBAI-FM is airing dramatized versions of Marvel stories. Gerry Conway has a science fiction novel, "The Midnight Dancers," published by Ace. Marie Severin designed the costumes for a play written and directed by Sheldon Feldner at Emerson College. Also a spot illustration of Doctor Strange and the usual "Marvel" plus 11 headshots at the bottom of the page.
